    Hi,
    Can we delete all posts by "Guests" (deleted users) in one hit?
    Forum has been in active for yrs as life got too busy, Wouldn't mind trying to get it up and running again but all post by Guests doesn't look good Smile

    what you could do is do a backup of all your members if you have not long deleted the accounts and then you can use this system.
