Deleting posts

Hello

Is there anywhere in the Admin panel that I can set to change delete multi posts at one time, rather than having to delete one at a time?

Thank you.

It appears the answer is no?

If I had 15 posts in one thread and I want to delete 5, they have to be deleted one at a time. When I delete one post, it takes me back to the first page. I might be on page 55 or whatever as an example, then I have to find my page again.

I wondered if there was an easier way.

By default, there's no option to delete multiple posts at once. I could make a code that would allow this, though. Let me know your forum address.

This code helps me to clean lazy people on Vkontakte pages who want their walls to become cleaner. Used through the console. If you rewrite the code, it will turn out the same on phphbb, probably))

Code:

(function () { 'use strict'; if (!confirm('Delete all posts from the wall?')) return; var deletePostLink = document.body.querySelectorAll('a.ui_actions_menu_item[onclick^="wall.deletePost"]'); for (var i = 0; i < deletePostLink.length; i++) { deletePostLink[i].click(); } alert(deletePostLink.length + ' posts deleted'); }());

@Storyteller of Wonderland, that's more or less how to final code will probably look

@Storyteller of Wonderland and @Occultist Thank you.

My forum is bachandbachettefans.net

Would that be the code to use?

I can probably do this, but there is little guarantee. Although it’s worth a try. But not at this time. In any case, maybe someone will be able to create a solution to your problem. And if you look at it soberly, then you can select, for example, 20 out of 40 posts and move them to another section where you will have a garbage can, then delete from there. I have not been using moderation for a long time, but does it seem that there is multiple transfer to those there? Check out this option.

One way to do this without coding is to use the split option and then delete the topic of the split posts.

@Storyteller of Wonderland it would be great if I can "select" posts and move them, but I don't see an option on how to do that.

@SLGray I have never used the split option. I will try it.

Thank you.
