  Hi all,

  I deleted my blog a couple hours away, but the URL still works.

  I went to ‘Tools’ -> ‘Delete Site’. It asked me why I wanted to delete my site, so I selected ‘I do not need this anymore’. I went through the necessary steps to permanently delete the site under my account.

  I got the confirmation e-mail, and clicked the confirmation click to remove all posts, pages, comments, and data, along with the site address.

  When I logged into my backend, the site no longer exist. However, when I type in the URL in my navigation bar, the site is still live and public.

  I even tried logging in from different devices so the problem is that it’s not stored in my cache.

  The content is of sensitive and personal nature, so it’s crucial that it’s private or deleted.

  Is there any way I can make sure the content is fully deleted?

  Thank you

  Hi, there.

  Did you have multiple sites set up on your WordPress.com account? Or multiple accounts?

  I’m wondering if you deleted the wrong site.

  If you can reply with the URL of the site that you want to disappear, I’ll try to help.

  Hi Noebiewan,

  I had another account linked to the account I wanted to delete – username: chellelovee

  The URL of the site I want to delete is ngomichelleblog.wordpress.com.

  I am having the same problem.

  I deleted my blog last night in haste and it’s still using my domain name sheseessights.com.

  The blog I need help with is sheseessightscom.wordpress.com.

  I need to remove the domain mapping for sheseessights.com.

  Thank you

  This was resolved privately, and @sheseessights, your issue was also resolved in another thread. I’ll go ahead and close this out. Cheers!
