Hi there @byHaris . I’m happy to help you out with this!
To delete a blog you will want to go to Online store > Blog posts > Manage blogs. From here, you can either select the blog you want to delete and click Actions > Delete blogs or you can click on the blog name itself and then click Delete blog.
Were you considering sharing anything specific in your blogs? Blogs can really help you grow your brand and community so I wanted to share a few resources in case you were interested in starting one in the future. We’ve written some blog posts with great tips on this and content marketing in general.
Hi @byHaris . I’m glad I was able to help you out!
You’re correct that the Manage blogs button only appears if you have at least one blog post created. If you have no blog posts you would see this page instead:
For context, “blogs” in Shopify is the blog itself and “blog posts” are the individual entries posted to a specific blog. Typically if a store has no blog posts the feature isn’t being used and there is no need to manage the blog. That being said, I understand why it would have been helpful in your situation and I’m happy to pass along that feedback!
Please let me know if you have any other questions.
If you delete an individual blog post, that one blog post will be removed from your Shopify admin and online store. If you delete an entire blog, any blog posts that fall under that blog will be deleted from your Shopify admin and online store. You should see a warning explaining this before you can delete a blog.
Example of what happens when you delete an entire blog:
All that being said, if you have set up your online store to display a blog and then you delete the blog, you would need to customize your theme to fix how this appears. For example, if you have a menu item called “Blog” that customers click to see your blogs and then you delete that blog, the menu item will remain, but the page itself would be empty or appear unfinished.
