    Default I added blog a few years ago, but don't know how to delete it

    I'm using Westminster New Template and I added a blog a few years ago to the top area of the template. I no longer want it to appear but I can't remember how I installed it. Can someone help me get rid of it, please. Thanks in advance for helping me.

    I can't remember either.

    Seriously, at least give us a link so we can look at the situation. Maybe even some of the other posting tips?

    Sorry, I should have included that, sorry for being so vague. my site is bigredworkweardotcom - it's a Wordpress blog, I'm unable to access Wordpress as well. I just want to remove the blog from my blog entirely and get it off of my server. Thanks for trying to help me.

    to get rid of the link, i believe you would need to edit:

    includes/templates/westminster_new/common/tpl_common_header.php

    and look for the blog link. you can edit that out...

    as far as getting it off your server, i suppose it would depend on how you installed word-press. you might be able to just ssh and then delete the files and then you would need to delete the database. else your cpanel may have a way to delete your WP install.

    good luck.

    Login to CPanel and use File Manager. Your blog is stored in a subdirectory called "/blog" under where the cart is. You will be able to delete this folder using File Manager. As carlwhat said, you could also do the next step and remove the database, but removing the files is the most important step.

    I applaud your efforts at website hygiene. Removing old unpatched software is one of the most important steps you can take to keep your site from being compromised.
