To delete a user on WordPress, you must have the necessary administrative privileges. Here are the steps to delete a user:

  1. Login to Your WordPress Dashboard:
    • Open your web browser and log in to your WordPress admin dashboard. The login URL is typically your website URL followed by “/wp-admin” (e.g., http://yourwebsite.com/wp-admin).
  2. Navigate to Users:
    • In the WordPress dashboard, locate the “Users” tab on the left-hand side. Click on it to open the Users page.
  3. Select the User to Delete:
    • You will see a list of all users on your WordPress site. Find the user you want to delete and click on their username to open the user profile.
  4. Delete the User:
    • On the user profile page, you should see an option to delete the user. This option is typically labeled as “Delete” or “Remove.” Click on it.
  5. Confirmation:
    • WordPress will usually ask for confirmation before deleting a user. Confirm that you want to delete the user, and proceed.
  6. Reassign Content (Optional):
    • If the user you’re deleting has created content on the site (posts, pages, etc.), you may be asked what you want to do with that content. You can either delete the content or reassign it to another existing user.
  7. Confirm Deletion:
    • Confirm the deletion once again if prompted.

Please note that deleting a user does not delete their content by default; it simply removes their account. If you want to delete the user’s content as well, you should choose the appropriate option during the deletion process.
