Cant delete Spam

  • I have around 8000 spam msges in my spam folder and each time I try to delete them I get redirected to a ‘set up a wordpress account’ page or similar – Im scared to keep trying in case I boot myself permanently out of my site altogether. Any known solutions?

  • Hi,

    If you are little bit familiar with database you can delete it from phpadmin or whatever you use for manage your database using query like this

    DELETE FROM wp_comments
WHERE comment_approved = 'spam';

DELETE FROM wp_commentmeta
WHERE comment_id NOT IN (SELECT comment_id FROM wp_comments);
