cant delete site from local server

  • I have a site on my local server with url localhost/wordpress/designssquared. This can also be found on localhost/wordpress.

    I have now created a second site and I’m trying to delete the first one, which I can’t seem to do. There is no option to delete that site. Does anyone know why?

    Not certain as to how many you actually have there, but there is no “Delete Site” button anywhere as far as I know.

    Deleting everything other than localhost/wordpress/designssquared in localhost/wordpress would delete the localhost/wordpress site, and then you would also have to delete its database or at least its tables if its tables might be in the same database as the tables for the localhost/wordpress/designssquared site.

    edit: I would suggest not deleting any wp-config.php file or wp-content folder until you are certain everything else is as you need or want it to be.

    How do i know what tables to delete? I used one database for all sites.

    Ah, please forgive my ignorance of anything related to multisite!

    As you seem to be aware, a set of tables can be known as a “database”, and yet a database is actually just a container for tables. So, the wp-config.php file for the site you want to delete would have that site’s table_prefix listed within in, I would guess.
