    Hello,
    I decided to move my website from wordpress to HTML 5 , however im stuck when it comes to search console . I tried to remove the property so as to resubmit it afresh but this doesnt work. i removed the console tracking code from the domain but when i try to add property afresh it auto-verifies the domain and brings back the old data, the old indexed pages etc. ive actualy removed the tracking code but i keep being verified as the owner of the website so i cant start afresh. I want to start over because the initial naming of the pages on wordpress doesnt march with the new html site. Also im more profecient with HTML rather than wordpress.
    So to start on a clean slate and submit the new website afresh entirely, start from zero , kindly what do i have to do ?
