Things to consider

Important

  • Deleting a website is permanent and can’t be undone.

  • Deleting a production website also deletes the database for all non-production websites associated with the production website.

  • Deleting your website doesn’t delete your account or your website’s user accounts.

  • If you want to save a copy of the website for later use, back up the website and download the backup before you delete it.

  • If you delete a website, you can’t reuse its name for a website in the same Site Factory subscription.

  • Deleting a website deletes all scheduled jobs associated with that website.
