  We’d like to rebuild our website from scratch but keep the media we have currently uploaded since we don’t have ready access to backups of everything. Can we delete the pages and content but keep the media files for when we reset the website and rebuild it?

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

  Hello,

  I’d just move to trash/delete all posts and pages as this will not delete your files.
  If you have too many posts and pages you can select them and move to trash.

  Bulk Edit

  You can bulk edit to modify multiple posts or pages at the same time. To do that, select several pages using the checkboxes on the left. Then go to the Bulk Actions list, select Move to Trash, and click the Apply button.

  Bulk edit for posts: https://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/edit-posts-screen/
  Bulk edit for pages: https://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/edit-pages-screen/

  Note: after 30 days the posts in trash will be automatically permanently deleted. See Deleted Posts and Pages

  Hope this helped you
