  Hi there after some complications I’ve concluded that it’d be much easier for me to just start fresh on my website. Is there anyway where I can reset it completely and still keep the domain I have purchased ?

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

  Thank you, but is there any known way to have it legitimately reset back to as if I had just chosen the template for the first time ?

  Hi there,

  I can reset the site for you — doing so will remove all content and media permanently. Your site will then look like the Carmack theme demo.

  If you are happy for me to do this, just reply to confirm.

  Thanks!

  Hey there, fortunately I’ve managed to come over some of the obstacles I had encountered while working on my website so there’s no longer a need for a fresh start, the offer is much appreciated though.
