how do I delete a blog form if you can't find original blog? A form appeared in my form list that is attached to a blog I did not create. I have not created any blogs in my account. blog_hubspot.png

Hi @llmcd ,

What you're seeing is most likely a system-generated blog comment form. These forms are automatically created when a blog is set up in HubSpot, even if it was created by accident, through a theme, or deleted later.

If the original blog no longer exists or can't be found, the form becomes “orphaned,” and HubSpot won’t let you delete it through the normal interface.

Try these troubleshooting methods:

1. Check for hidden or inactive blogs:
Go to Settings > Website > Blog and look for any unused or test blogs. If you find one, deleting it should remove the form.

2. Contact HubSpot Support:
If you don’t see any related blogs, the best option is to contact HubSpot Support or post here with your Hub ID and the form name. A member of the internal team can remove it manually. (Note: deletion is permanent and can't be undone.)

This is a known issue. @DianaGomez has helped others with a similar problem in this community thread - https://community.hubspot.com/t5/Blog-Website-Page-Publishing/Blog-comment-form-deletion-problem/m-p.... Hopefully, she can help here too!

If my reply answered your question, please mark it as a solution to make it easier for others to find.
