You'll need to empty the trash folders.

Do you know if this will also free up all permalinks? One of my problems is that I have deleted a lot of posts and in doing so I can not reuse the permalinks that they had...

Here are instructions from timethief, another forum volunteer that should get you started.

However I have also been messing a lot up due to me being a n00b. Therefore I would really appreciate it if I could get a fresh start. I don't want to delete my blog or just start a new one because I really like my URL. Luckily I read about this option in my Dashboard -> Tools -> Delete Blog:

"If you wish to empty your blog of all of its content but keep the blog name, please contact support, and one of our Happiness Engineers will be glad to lend a hand."

So this is what I'm trying to do now. Trying to contact a Happiness Engineer so he/she can empty my blog of all its content. I have backed up everything so it can be done now. Please contact me Happiness Engineers.

Sincerely Janus
