# Delete a Content Block

Permanently delete a content block from the Content Blocks module. Before deleting, review the content block's usage to confirm it isn't referenced by any active B2C Commerce storefront pages or regions.

To delete content blocks, your role must include the Manage\_All\_Libraries functional permission in the organization context, or Manage\_Site\_Library in the context of the site.

You can remove a content block from individual pages or delete it permanently. If pages or regions still reference a deleted content block, those areas show empty content. Review usage before deleting to identify active references. See [View Content Block Usage and References](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=cc.b2c_cb_view_usage.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5 "See all the pages and B2C Commerce storefront regions where a content block is currently used. Reviewing usage helps you understand the impact of changes before editing or deleting a content block.").

Choose the appropriate action:

- **Remove from pages** — To remove a content block from individual pages without deleting it permanently, see [Remove a Content Block from a Page](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=cc.b2c_cb_remove_from_page.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5 "Remove a content block from a single B2C Commerce Page Designer page without deleting it or affecting other pages that use it. The block stays available in the Content Blocks menu and module for reuse elsewhere.").
- **Delete permanently** — Use the steps in this topic to delete one or more content blocks from the Content Blocks list using bulk actions.

2. Select one or more content blocks that you want to delete.
3. From the bulk actions menu, select **Delete**.
4. In the confirmation dialog, review the usage summary and click **Delete** to confirm.
    
    If the content block has active references, the dialog warns you that deleting it removes the content from those storefront locations.
    
    The system permanently deletes the content block and removes it from all storefront locations.
