Since the Premium Website Builder (PWB) has reached its end-of-life (EOL), you will no longer be able to publish changes to your website. As an alternative, we recommend creating 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
- Find the Working Directory for your website.
- Navigate to the document root directory either using an FTP connection or cPanel File Manager.
- 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.
