Hi there,
There isn’t much content on your blog, so our support page can assist you in this process.
When 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.Let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks, -
Thanks, yes ,I would rather do it myself and get comfortable with it. If I have a problem, I’ll raise my hand!! :)

Okay, so I tried to do that, and it wouldn’t delete everything. When I tried to activate a new theme to customize, it wouldn’t bring it all in. Could you please delete everything so I can start over. I am frustrated. :(
Thanks -

Hello again –
My site was not emptied. I am still trying to empty it. I thought maybe I could delete my site and start over, but I am afraid I might lose my site name forever and I don’t want to do that.
I am trying to START ALL OVER AGAIN with a new template. EDIN. Every time I try to do that, it won’t load. It only loads a widget here, a line of text there.
I managed to delete all my personal data, but now I can’t delete the WordPress template data, and I cannot see where to do that.
Do you think you could start me over again with a fresh, full template of EDIN so I can start over?
Also, at one point, I accidentally created the post page, but I really only intended to have main page. Is it possible to get rid of that? Will my blogs live as children under the main page or do they live outside under the post page? (hopefully that question makes sense).
Thanks.
Ready to give up! And I am not dumb. I used to be a PeopleSoft programmer, and I used to write web sites from HTML. This should be easier. -
When we empty a site, we empty the content of the site. Some of the modifications you made to the theme may remain the same.
However, the Edin theme page provides information on how to set up each and every feature from the demo, including setting up the front page template and the various other templates.
Please look over the theme page and let me know if you have any questions.
Thank you!

When I originally set up with the Sela theme, it set up the whole thing and let me edit that. It was all fine until I tried to get rid of that big white box on the front. Then I managed to mess everything up. That’s how I ended up where I am now. I should be able to start from that, without having to build from scratch.

We do not provide phone support, but I am here to help you!
So, are you wanting to go back to the Sela Theme? You can go ahead and activate the theme and see what we can do to manually restore it the look of the demo.
-
Well, I think I prefer the Edin theme. Are you saying I can get the Sela theme as a template, but not the Edin theme as a template?
-
No, when starting a new site all templates are pretty bare when you activate them because unlike the demo, there isn’t any content. So, both the Edin and Sela themes will not look like their demos because there isn’t any content on your site yet.
However, once you begin to add posts, pages, etc. to your site, you can begin setting it up similar to the demo.

When I first started, I had all the demo templates, and I edited them. I was happy (except for the big white box on the Sela page). When I decided to change from Sela to Edin, I lost all my templates. I like to start from the demo templates. That makes the most sense, and it’s clearly how things work. The only way to do that is to kill my whole site and start over from nothing, which makes me unhappy. If I kill my site, does that mean I can never use that name again? Or will my name be newly available?
-
Okay, I checked your history and it appears that you switched from Sela to Edin, contacted me empty your site (which I did), switched your site to Goran, Edin, and then back to Sela. I think the site did not look the same when you eventually changed things back to Sela because your content was deleted before doing so. if you tell me exactly what templates from the demo you are looking to have, I can assist you in re-establishing them for your site.
Hopefully that makes sense – of course, let me know if you have questions.
