    Wordpress - delete post & media question

    Anyone know of an easy way, in Wordpress, to delete a blog post a way that it'll also delete the media files/content of that blog post from the server?

    Please post plugins or help if you know of anything.

    Thanks

            Find the number of the file and either ftp delete or find the post and delete it. Each page will have a number.

              Actually there are two major sorts of post deleting plugins. One are super-duper smart-assed because they found a very easy way to delete 1000's of posts less faster than a lightning, because they do it via a simple MySQL query. Course they don't delete post media and other attached content. So they just turn you DB into a shit hole.

              And there is another sort of 'em. The ones that use a standard WP API delete_post() function. It works much slower than a direct MySQL query, but it does it correctly and cleans your DB in accordance to the official WordPress standards. My WP-Mass-Delete plugin is one of this sort. It's free.
