Remove sample content

Find out how to remove content and delete images.

Written by Cristiana Ghinea

When you first get access to your website, it will include sample content. Sample content are example posts from each of the content modules (eg. News, Events, Pages) which we add to your site.

These allow you to see the designs for the different kinds of posts on your website before you start creating content yourself.

All items on your site which are seen as sample content include a category called 'Sample Content'.

If you want to permanently remove any content you have added to your site you can apply the category to it and it will also be removed along with the other content with the 'Sample Content' category.

Add the Sample Content category to a post

To add the category to a post:

  1. Click the post to open it.

  2. Select Sample Content in the Categories drop-down menu.

  3. Click the Update button.

When you've done this, please reach out to us via the Digital Assistant and provide us with as many details as possible so we can investigate and assist. We will run a script which removes all posts which include the 'Sample Content' category.


Add the Sample Content category to an image

  1. Hover over Manage, then click Tools.

  2. Click Media Centre in the left-hand menu to open the Media Centre in a new window.

  3. Select the image you want to add the Sample Content category to.

  4. Click the Categories tab on the right side of the window.

  5. Select Sample Content from the Select a category drop-down menu to apply the category.

  6. Raise a new case online, referencing the article title, to request that all images with the Sample Content category are removed.
