Wordpress question
 

mass deleting comments not using the wordress admin?

i forgot to turn off comments in a new blog and theres 29,000 plus comments that i need to fucking kill. prob is the damn thing is timing out. i can't change it in mass edit mode to show me more than 20 comments at a time.

is there a way to go into the mysql to kill these fuckers?

i wont make the mistake of not turning comments off again after this , thats for sure.

thanks.

head into the database and clean em out there :)

yeah phpmyadmin look for the table and clean

thanks, just wanted to be sure i dont kill the wrong fucking thing.

yeah I had that problem a few times. had to do it in phpmyadmin and get rid of them all.

thats the only way to go.

nuke those mother fuckers from the sql database.

NO MORE COMMENTS

LOLLLLL

Or use Akismet, in combination with moderation.

Delete "wp-comments-post.php".

How you get 29,000+ comments?

I need that even it's spam, please tell me secret!

Spam Karma 2 2.3 rc3 Ultimate Spam Killer for WordPress. Activate the plugin and go to Manage >> Spam Karma 2 to configure. See Spam Karma 2 >> About for details. By dr Dave.

Think there is a plugin for it that does this too.

A Not = delete query is just the same tho.

Do you have any advice on how to configure that monster for dummies? That plug in is so not transparent, looks like you need to attend a 5 years of university to learn that script...
