How Do I Delete a Featured Post on WordPress?

If you want to delete a featured post on WordPress, there are a few different ways to go about it. The first way is to go to the Posts screen and select the post you want to delete.

Next, you’ll need to click the Edit button in the toolbar and then click the Trashcan icon next to the Post title. Finally, you’ll need to confirm that you want to delete the post by clicking the Trashcan button again.

If you want to delete a featured post without first going to the Posts screen, you can use the wp_delete_post() function. To use this function, you’ll first need to locate the post you want to delete in the blog’s content editor. Next, you’ll need to locate the wp_delete_post() function in the WordPress code area and enter the following code into the editor:

wp_delete_post($post->ID);

Finally, you’ll need to save the changes you’ve made to the blog’s code and click the Publish button to publish the post. After the post has been published, you’ll need to go to the Posts screen and select the post you want to delete.

Next, you’ll need to click the Delete button in the toolbar and confirm that you want to delete the post by clicking the Delete button again.
