tomany ads to expire. Help please

[jtorral]

I have never run the sendnotice.php until now. The result of running that script is that I have 4000 ads that now show up in my admin approval section of the admin panel. I would need to click on delete 4000 times to delete the ads that are expired. How can I delete these ads in a humane way without sepnding 10 hours doing so?

if it cannot be done. Then where can I change the selected radio button from Leave to Delete. This way when I run the report everything is already selected as delete.

If your running 2.6 or higher when you visit your admin panel it should expire any expired ads over 2 weeks old. You could in theory wait 2 weeks or modify the 2 week check to a 2 day check etc in adm-misc.php

running 2.5

[Chuck S]

You would need to be running 2.61 to auto expire as that was added to 2.6

cHUCK,

what about the code for selecting approve, leave or delete. It defaults to leave. where can I change it to default on delete?

[Chuck S]

You would need to alter the code in adm-misc.php in some way. To have it other than leave would be a bug. You are free to modify the code at your discretion but we offer no support for that.

I changed the code to look like this

Content visible to verified customers only.

and changed the items per page to 2000

Will revert once completed.

[Chuck S]

Okay the easier way would of course be to upgrade.

[jtorral]

Will upgrade after we migrate next month.
