How Do I Unpublish a Website on WordPress?

If you have decided to stop using your WordPress website, there are a few ways you can go about it. The most common way to remove a WordPress site is to delete the files and folders associated with it.

However, this is not always possible or desirable. You can also choose to unpublish your site.

To unpublish a WordPress site, you first need to go to the site’s administrative area and find the “Publish” button. Once you have activated the button, you will be able to choose between “Normal” and “Unpublished” publishing modes.

In “Normal” publishing mode, your site will appear on the WordPress.com website and be searchable.

In “Unpublished” publishing mode, your site will not appear on the WordPress.com website and will only be accessible by users who have been given permission to see it.

To unpublish a WordPress site in “Unpublished” mode, you will need to click on the “Unpublish” button and provide the URL of the site you want to unpublished. WordPress will then remove all of the site’s files and folders from its database.
