    How do I reset my word press and take it back to day one with no themes added, a clean slate?

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    There is no such thing as a restore to a specific date on a blog. There is no them reset link either. We simply undo whatever we did to restore a theme to default settings.

    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):

    Every theme has a detailed theme description page. This one is at https://wordpress.com/theme/edin and that’s where set up instructions for it, and the live demo site link is found.

    Hi stephfarr33,

    I don’t see any content on both your sites. If you want to start over you can follow @timethief’s instructions on how to completely delete the contents of your site and then select a theme from the Theme Showcase:

    Let me know if you need more help.
