WordPress - Delete Users

Deleting users in WordPress is a straightforward process. However, before you delete a user, it's important to understand that deleting a user removes their access to the site, but it does not delete the content they have created. Here's how you can delete users in WordPress:

Delete Users:

  1. Login to your WordPress Dashboard:

    • Open your web browser and navigate to the login page of your WordPress site.
    • Enter your username and password to log in.
  2. Access the Users Section:

    • In the left sidebar, find and click on "Users."
  3. View All Users:

    • Click on "All Users" to see a list of all users on your site.
  4. Select the User to Delete:

    • Hover over the user you want to delete, and you'll see options like "Edit," "Delete," etc.
    • Click on "Delete" below the user's username.
  5. Confirmation:

    • WordPress will ask for confirmation before deleting the user. You'll see a confirmation message indicating that deleting a user will remove them from the site.
  6. What Happens When a User is Deleted:

    • Deleting a user removes their access to the site. However, it does not delete the content they have created (e.g., posts, pages).
    • Any content created by the deleted user will usually be attributed to the user with the role "Deleted User."
