I have a production site running through Cloudflare workers and pages. I'd like to delete it and take it down so I can use the domain for something else. How do I do that?

To delete a Cloudflare Pages site, you'll need to follow these steps:

Step 1: Access your Cloudflare account

  • Go to the Cloudflare dashboard by logging in to your account at cloudflare.com.
  • Make sure you have the correct account and login credentials.

Step 2: Navigate to the Pages tab

  • In the top navigation menu, click on the "Pages" option.
  • This will take you to the Pages overview page, where you can manage your sites.

Step 3: Find the site you want to delete

  • In the Pages overview page, find the site you want to delete. You can filter the list by domain or ID to make it easier to find the site.
  • Click on the three vertical dots next to the site's name to open the site's options menu.

Step 4: Delete the site

  • In the site options menu, click on the "Delete site" option.
  • Confirm that you want to delete the site by clicking "Delete site" in the pop-up window.

Step 5: Remove Cloudflare worker scripts

  • Since you mentioned you're using Cloudflare Workers, you'll need to remove the worker scripts before deleting the site.
  • Go to the "Workers" tab in the top navigation menu.
  • Find the worker script associated with the site you're deleting and click on the three vertical dots next to it.
  • Click "Delete worker" to remove the script.

Step 6: Remove DNS settings (if applicable)

  • If you set up DNS settings for the site, you'll need to remove them to prevent the site from still being accessible.
  • Go to the "DNS" tab in the top navigation menu.
  • Find the DNS records related to the site and delete them.

Step 7: Verify the site is deleted

  • After deleting the site, go back to the Pages overview page to verify that the site is no longer listed.

Important notes:

  • Make sure you've removed any Cloudflare worker scripts associated with the site.
  • Delete any DNS settings related to the site to prevent it from still being accessible.
  • Be cautious when deleting a site, as it may affect other services or projects relying on the site.

By following these steps, you should successfully delete your Cloudflare Pages site. Remember to remove any associated worker scripts, DNS settings, and other resources to ensure the site is fully deleted.
