  If you have two old linked blogs on your Ghost Global Dashboard and want to delete them, follow these steps:

  1. Remove the Sites from Your Ghost Dashboard

  • Go to Ghost Admin and log in.
  • On the Global Dashboard, locate the old blogs you want to remove.
  • Click on the three-dot menu (⋮) next to the blog.
  • Look for an option like “Remove from Dashboard” or “Delete” (depends on Ghost version).

  2. Cancel Subscription (If Hosted on Ghost Pro)

  • If these blogs are hosted on Ghost(Pro), go to Billing Settings and cancel the subscription before deletion.

  3. Delete Self-Hosted Ghost Blogs (If Hosted on Your Own Server)

  If you’re hosting Ghost on your own VPS or hosting provider, you’ll need to manually delete them:

  • Access your server via SSH.
  • Navigate to your Ghost installation folder: bashCopyEditcd /var/www/your-ghost-site
  • Run the following command to stop Ghost: bashCopyEditghost stop
  • Delete the Ghost instance: bashCopyEditrm -rf /var/www/your-ghost-site
  • If needed, remove the domain from your NGINX/Apache configuration.

  4. Revoke Custom Domains (If Applicable)

  • If you set up custom domains for these blogs, remove them from Ghost settings or your domain registrar (GoDaddy, Namecheap, etc.).

  Let me know if you need help with a specific step!

  Hi!

  I checked your account, and burakggr.wordpress.com is the only active WordPress.com site. The other two sites have already been deleted.
