  There is no theme reset button. We simply remove whatever we did to restore a theme to default.

  Please see here https://wordpress.com/theme/qua

  To empty the site, keep the same URL and start over, you have two options (You must be logged in under the username account that registered the site first):
  (1) Doing this quickly and easily yourself via bulk deletion http://en.support.wordpress.com/empty-site/
  (2) Waiting in a queue and having Staff do it for you.

  If you have a lot of content Staff can empty the whole blog for you. That will remove all data including posts, pages, tags, categories, comments, and uploaded files and once deleted, the data cannot be recovered.

  If you are sure you want Staff to proceed, and you are prepared to wait then type modlook into the tags in the sidebar of this thread for Staff attention, and post here again to:
  (1) confirm the URL of the blog you want them to empty;
  (2) confirm that you know content deletion is irreversible.

  IMPORTANT NOTE: Deleting blogs and/or blog content does not remove indexed content from the SERPs (search engine page results). Google and Bing only clear their caches of deleted indexed content that produces a 404 (page not found) every 3 – 6 months. To completely remove an entire page from Google search results after it produces a 404 (page not found):

  Hi there,

  Our support page can assist you in this process.
  If you have tons of content on your blog, we can do it for you, but you can accomplish clearing your site fairly easily with bulk actions whenever you’re ready.

  I believe you mentioned you wanted to revert the site to its original layout as well? If that is the case, I can go ahead and empty the site and reset the theme for you.

  Let me know if you have any questions.

  Thanks,

  I attempted to figure out bulk actions but I couldn’t find the bulk actions area. I screwed something up when I was adding pages when I initially started this blog and I would just like it to be wiped out and reset to original everything if possible.

  Thank you!
