Hi there,
I recently wanted to remove some unused sites that I made a couple years back, but I dont seem to find all of them on my list.
To put it briefly, I want to delete my sites but dont seem to be able to. What can I do?
Many thanks in advance.
Pat

Hi there,

do you possibly have some sites on one, and some sites on another account?

more information on what i am describing is here:

Hi perry, thanks for the fast reply.
I checked and you were absolutely right; it’s pretty much the situation you described in the other topic.
I never realized that there were two different email accounts (GitHub and Netlify).
Using the other email to log in fixed everything.
Thanks a bunch :smiley:

So I did get into the account where my site deploys from… and wanted to move it to my other account… this was unsuccessful. It stays in the old account. “siteId”: “03fffd19-b4b5-418a-97e4-17a0e7da4e24”
and I cannot deploy… says “base directory does not exist.” I changed the base directory to where it lives now on my computer. the GitHub repo hasn’t changed. So I tried to connect to localhost by upgrading cli and now says " Failed retrieving addons for site 03fffd19-b4b5-418a-97e4-17a0e7da4e24: Not Found." Can you help? I was logged into loriortiz team I wanted to tr this site to but perhaps site ID number is still looking for Lori Ortiz another team where this site has lived…by itself it seems. there are 3 other deprecated sites on it…

Hi @lori :wave:t6: welcome to the forums. Can you please give this doc a read as it details how to transfer your site?

What is the base directory supposed to be? I’m getting opt/build/repo/[repo-name]

12:27:06 PM: Failed during stage “Reading and parsing configuration files”:
When resolving config file /opt/build/repo/netlify.toml:
Base directory does not exist: /opt/build/repo/lori/Sites/store1/stripe-checkout-netlify-serverless

is it instead supposed to be the directory on my computer? Users/lori/Sites/…

Heya @lori ,

It looks like you were able to sort out the base directory as I see you had a successful deploy today :tada:

To answer your question, a base directory in Netlify is the directory where Netlify checks for dependency management files such as package.json or .nvmrc , installs dependencies, and runs your build command. The build system uses this directory to perform caching during the build process. If not set, the base directory defaults to the root of the repository.

Hope this helps!
