How do I prevent the creation of these when creating a new Multisite?

Everytime I create a new multisite this gets created:

• Hello World
• Sample Page
• A sample Comment

I tried adding this to the functions.php

add_action( 'wpmu_new_blog', 'delete_wordpress_defaults', 100, 1 );

function delete_wordpress_defaults(){

// 'Hello World!' post
wp_delete_post( 1, true );

// 'Sample page' page
wp_delete_post( 2, true );
}

It still created Hello world and Sample page. And I don't know how to disable the sample comment.

When you create a new site with multisite WP does not automatically change the context. So your action is added to the current site, not the new site. You have to switch first. Like this:

add_action ('wpmu_new_blog', 'wpse296303_delete_wordpress_defaults', 100, 1);

function wpse296303_delete_wordpress_defaults ($blog_id, $user_id, $domain, $path, $site_id, $meta) {
  // Switch to the newly created blog
  switch_to_blog ($blog_id);
  // Delete 'Hello World!' post
  wp_delete_post (1, true);
  // Delete 'Sample page' page
  wp_delete_post (2, true);
  // Delete 'Sample comment' page
  wp_delete_comment (1, true)
  }

I'm not sure if the ID of the default comment is 1, so you'd have to check that.

best luck i got:

/public_html/wp-includes/widgets/class-wp-widget-meta.php \public_html\wp-admin\includes\schema.php /public_html\wp-admin\includes\upgrade.php

deleteing code of post comment page url etc. 5.1.11

yes after update they might be restored but you will know where to fix up again.
