Website Deletion
-
I have taken over a Pub called the Blue Bell and have set up a new Website and Domain and now need the old website taken down. The previous owner gave me all their login details for Word Press Admin but I cannot see how to do this. HELP!!!!!
WP.com: Unknown
Jetpack: Unknown
Correct account: Unknown -

It would appear the login details provided are only those for the Admin of the site NOT the full WordPress Account Login, but it is all they can provide me with. The url for the site in question is http://www.bluebell-kirbyhill.co.uk
-
That site isn’t hosted here at WordPress.com. You should be able to log in with Admin credentials directly at http://bluebell-kirbyhill.co.uk/wp-login.php
-
Yes, I can get into here, but the options are very limited with nothing to allow me to take the site down???? (Wish I could share a Screenshot)
-
I am more than happy to share the login details with someone privately if they think they can help me………I’m at a total Dead End!!!!!!! (I’m obviously not very good at this sort of thing!!!

As stated previously, the site isn’t hosted here so getting into “here” ie WordPress.com won’t help you. If someone else was paying for the domain then the site will disappear eventually when the domain expires and isn’t renewed. If I was you I’d reach out to the owner of that site once more.

I know I’m probably being totally thick, but why does this link: http://bluebell-kirbyhill.co.uk/wp-login.php take me to a WordPress Login??
-
Because the site was built with the wordpress software. The free wordpress software and the host WordPress.com (here) are two different things. Don’t the credentials you were given enable you to access the site from that link? If not you need to get back to the owner for correct login details. Then you can edit the site. Someone will need to contact Tsohost if the domain is no longer required.

Ah! Right….I get that, but don’t talk to me about TsoHost!!!! Nightmare to deal with!
I don’t want to appear cheeky, but if I sent you the Login details could you look at it and see if you can help………I really am pretty IT Illiterate!!!! -
I’m just a volunteer in this forum which is just for free sites hosted at WordPress.com. Even staff here won’t have the ability to access a site hosted somewhere else that isn’t on WordPress.com servers. You really are asking for help in the wrong place.
Personally I think it is up to the owner of the site to take it down.
