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:
-
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.
-
Access the Users Section:
- In the left sidebar, find and click on "Users."
-
View All Users:
- Click on "All Users" to see a list of all users on your site.
-
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.
-
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.
-
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."
