What I’m trying to do
I’ve created the page and in trying to add social links, I have inserted the to the right of the header and outside the main page margins (see attached image).

In the top right of the editor, choose Tools> Layers

You’ll then have the layers panel where you’ll be able to find the image, and select from the layers panel. Once selected, you can delete :slight_smile:

Thanks you noahlovell but. and unfortunately, layers only relate to the ‘sections’ used to make up & display the site page itself therefore will not work in this case.

The images I am trying to delete are off these sections i.e. off page and to the right as can be seen in the image I posted.

I thank you for your response but I think I the quickest way forward is to delete the entire site and start again.

Thank you again

Using the arrow next to the layers you can expand and find the items inside. It’s not just the sections :slight_smile:

I’ve managed to fix my mistake. I was able to revert to to a previous saved copy of the site through the history section and the good news is, there was not too much damage.

Thank you again, this issue is now solved.
