Well, the thing is I have some 700 posts. Selecting them and deleting them is quite cumbersome.
I was wondering if there was something that could be done from the back-end?

Thanks,
Karan Sangha

@karansangha

Staff can empty the whole blog for you. That will remove all data including posts, pages, tags, categories, comments, and uploaded files and once deleted, the data cannot be recovered.

If you are sure you want Staff to proceed, then please
(1) reply to confirm the URL of the blog you want them to empty
(2) reply to confirm that you know content deletion is irreversible.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Deleting blog content does not remove it from the SERPs (search engine page results). Google and Bing only clear their caches of deleted indexed content that produces a 404 (page not found) every 3 – 6 months.

I tagged this thread for a Staff follow-up. Please subscribe to it so you are notified when they respond.

May I kindly suggest that you use search to locate answers previously provided by the regular Volunteers and Staff and link to their correct answers?

Like timethief said, if you are sure you want to proceed, please reply to confirm the name of the blog you want us to empty.

@timethief, I’m terribly sorry about that. I thought it was a straightforward delete that can be solved by “Empty my site of all content” option. Thanks for correcting me!
