We have expanded the central Bulk Operations engine to include a secure **Delete Site** operation. This tool enables authorized account holders and administrators to safely decommission multiple site environments, remove server data, and release associated licenses within a single background run.

**Updates & Navigation**

- **Delete Site Command:** Integrated a batch decommissioning operation that permanently purges site files, databases, and platform configurations, automatically releasing any active add-on licenses.
- **Double-Blind Confirmation Mechanism:** Enforces both client-side and server-side validation requiring the literal string entry DELETE prior to request dispatch.
- **Permission & State Scoping:** Restricts site selection menus exclusively to properties owned by the user or where delete-site privileges exist, limited to properties in live, disabled, or failed-restore states.
- **Bypass & Conflict Protection:** Automatically skips and logs properties with active dependencies (such as domain-level active email orders) or ongoing removal tasks without interrupting the broader batch job.
- **Non-Restorable Safeguards:** Deletion actions are permanent and executed independently per site; bulk restoration mechanisms are intentionally excluded to protect data integrity.

**How to get started**

Log into **MyPressable**, navigate to the **Tools > Bulk Operations** panel, select **Delete Site**, choose eligible target properties, complete the typed confirmation prompt, and initiate the batch process.
