Clearing out WordPress Development Site

    I have a subfolder on my domain which has a password protected installation of wordpress I use for development. I have used it once to import wordpress data and I am needing to use it again to help transfer a blog.

    How would I completely remove all posts/comments/categories ect. while leaving the actual installation intact? I can’t do this manually as there are over 800 post/comments.

    Thanks

    Dan

    So far I’m in phpMyAdmin and I’m just going through wp_comments ect.. and emptying the tables. This seems to work fine so far – I’m just hoping I dont miss something.

    Oh well I’ve got it sorted I believe:

    TRUNCATE TABLE wordpress_db.wp_comments;
TRUNCATE TABLE wordpress_db.wp_links;
TRUNCATE TABLE wordpress_db.wp_postmeta;
TRUNCATE TABLE wordpress_db.wp_posts;
TRUNCATE TABLE wordpress_db.wp_term_relationships;
TRUNCATE TABLE wordpress_db.wp_term_taxonomy;
TRUNCATE TABLE wordpress_db.wp_terms;

    Will clear out all the necessary files.

    Worked great! Thanks for following through on this.
