How can I bulk delete all posts in a custom post type?

Anyone?

Place this to a page:

// For Custom posts

<?php
// Get 50 custom post types pages, set the number higher if is not slow.

$mycustomposts = get_pages( array( 'post_type' => 'name-of-post-type', 'number' => 50) );
   foreach( $mycustomposts as $mypost ) {
     // Delete's each post.
     wp_delete_post( $mypost->ID, true);
    // Set to False if you want to send them to Trash.
   }
// 50 custom post types are being deleted everytime you refresh the page.?>

// For terms

<?php
$taxonomy = 'my_taxonomy';

$terms = get_terms($taxonomy);
 $count = count($terms);
 if ( $count > 0 ){

     foreach ( $terms as $term ) {
        wp_delete_term( $term->term_id, $taxonomy );
     }
 }
?>

Thanks Ervald this worked perfectly! I was able to change the number to 5,000 and just refresh it 3 times, took a couple minutes each time.

No problem Nick,

You can mark this post as Solved now I guess.

Where exactly to you place this code.. I need to delete a ton of post from a custom post type… Also…Do you need to change anything in the code above..

Thanks
