Remove/Delete Site

There are three ways you can delete a site.

1. Delete From The App Detail Screen

  1. Go to WPCloudDeploy → All Apps
  2. Click on the site that needs to be deleted
  3. Click on the Misc tab
  4. Scroll down to the DANGER ZONE: REMOVE SITE section
  5. Click on either the REMOVE button or the REMOVE SITE & BACKUPS button.

When using the REMOVE SITE & BACKUPS option, only local backups (backups stored on the disk) are removed.  Any backups sent to remote storage (such as AWS S3) will remain – remote backups are never touched!

2. Delete From The Site List

  1. Go to WPCloudDeploy → All Apps
  2. Search for or otherwise locate the domain/site you would like to delete.
  3. Hover over the TITLE column until a list of links appear
  4. Click on the DELETE SITE link
  5. Confirm the prompt.

3. Use Bulk Delete

You can delete one or more sites directly from the app/site list screen.

  1. Go to WPCloudDeploy → All Apps
  2. Search for or otherwise locate the domain/site you would like to delete.
  3. Click the checkbox in the first column
  4. Repeat step 2 & 3 for all other sites you would like to delete
  5. Click on the BULK OPTIONS drop-down at the top of the list
  6. Click on either DELETE SITES FROM SERVER or DELETE SITES AND BACKUPS FROM SERVER
  7. Click on the APPLY button

When using the BULK DELETE option, the sites are not immediately deleted.  Instead, a set of background tasks are scheduled and the sites should be deleted after a few minutes.  Of course, the more sites you have to delete, the longer the bulk deletion operation will take to complete.

Notes

  1. If you use the TRASH option that you see when you hover over the application item in the apps list, only the record will be deleted.  The site itself will remain on the server.  You must use the process outlined above to delete the site from the server.
