My site uses the Better Messages plugin to organise messages in “threads”.
What happens if I set the “older than” date for deleting messages and it falls in the middle of a thread?
Example: I set the “older than” date as 1 Jan 2024.
A thread has it’s original (starting message) sent on 1 Jan 2023 and the thread continues up to Dec 2024.
What happens?
A. The entire thread gets deleted.
B. Only messages older than 1 Jan 2024 get deleted, the rest of the messages in the thread remain intact.
Thanks.
]]>Hey,
looks likek theplugin can delete pretty mcuh everything. You are saying the plugin deletes activity, messages, user data, and meta. But you do not mention images (uploaded photos for stream or user profile album images) – so my question is:
Does the plugin delete all data incl. images based on an ‘older than’ date?
If not, could that be added? Images probably take up most storage space so this would be super helpful.
Just curious ??
]]>Is it possible to delete the activity on the activity feed, but keep all activity in groups?
I notice when I delete activity that it also deletes the activity in the groups as well.
]]>My site ended up with over 100k spam groups. It was a problem I had on and off in the past, but this time it exploded. Is there any way to add a feature to this plugin for bulk deletion of recently created buddypress groups (after a certain date)? I’m about to dive into the database to try to deal with it but I’m not sure which tables to go after to make sure *all* the associated spam data gets wiped.
PS – Thank you for all the wonderful plugins!
]]>Hi, does your plugin by chance also allow to delete older file uploads – to save hosting storage?
]]>Hello
I am using buddypress 8 , word press 5.7.2. I recently used this plugin to delete the activity stream but it seems it has also deleted the member log in history of around 180 members. And only those that have logged in (19 members) since i used that plugin are only showing in the “recently active” member list/directory. How do i fix this so all members that have logged in the past will show up again in the directory?
]]>Will this plugin delete the associated data with the user activity, like photos, videos, documents, and so on…
]]>Please can you add a feature to bulk delete users who have never logged in before
]]>You should make an option to run via cron to auto delete data older than X days or so on….
]]>Great plugin, just used it to remove 300,000 old Private Messages from my WP/BP site (busy site!)
One issue: the date dropdowns are missing from the Notifications Bulk Delete section. It just shows “Date:” then blank. Other than that, looks exactly as in your screenshots.
I would like to be able to bulk delete notifications also. But no way to specify a date.
Can you help?
]]>Hello,
I love the idea of this plugin. However, it does not work for me.
I get the following error, when selecting any date from the drop down fields.
Deleting Activity Older Than: 2020-05-06
Please wait…
Notice: Trying to get property ‘table_name’ of non-object in /home/customer/www/astrodate.co.uk/public_html/wp-content/plugins/bp-bulk-delete/bpbd-admin.php on line 222
WordPress database error: [You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ‘WHERE date_recorded < ‘2020-05-06” at line 1]
SELECT id FROM WHERE date_recorded < ‘2020-05-06’
Are you able to point me in the right direction of how I could resolve this error?
Thank you.
Jamie
]]>Hi,
This plugin sounds great. Is it possible to just isolate this to posts made within a BuddyPress group that only get deleted?
Does this delete the post and the uploaded photo or just the post?
Thanks
]]>Hi, thanks for this tool — how can I use this to bulk delete specific user?
]]>@shanebp i successfully used this tool to delete activity and messages but notifications is just sitting there with Please wait …. any advice or should i just keep it open and sitting there? is there a command i can manually execute in mysql to do the same thing maybe?
]]>@shanebp i haven’t tried it yet but back 6 years ago i learned the hard way about going into mysql and deleting old activity items …..so grateful for this !
]]>Thank you for creating this great plugin! I use it Freunde.one and was able to delete hundrets of useless notifications!
