How to Delete Your Website Built Using the Premium Website Builder

Since the Premium Website Builder (PWB) has reached its end-of-life (EOL), you will no longer be able to publish customizations to your website. We recommend building a new website using BoldGrid. In this article, you can learn how to remove the PWB files and delete your website.

Remove Premium Website Builder Site Files

1. Find the Working Directory for your website.

2. Navigate to the document root directory either using an FTP connection or cPanel File Manager.

3. Delete the PWB site files. You may refer to the list below for the most common PWB site files.

Files	Directories
publication_list.xml	attachments
server.php	css
init.php	data
menu.xml	images
index.php*	include
page#.php**	resources




*NOTE: The index.php file is commonly used for various websites. Before deleting this file, consider opening it and reviewing the first few lines for code similar to the following:

require_once('init.php');
$loadClass = SB_Modules::loadClass('XXXXX');
$statisticsObject = new Modules_Statistics('XXXXX');

**NOTE: There may be multiple page#.php files, such as, page1.php, page2.php, etc.
