Better way of bulk/mass deleting photos?

[Brains]

I have a VB forum with Photopost Pro, with nearly 10,000 users, and 25,000 photos.

I regularly get asked for a way for either admin or user to delete a load of photos.
I reply and say I can either delete ALL of their photos, or they can do it one by one, which is an absolute nightmare.

Yes, I know I can delete albums, but most of the time, these arent held in sub-albums, theyre held in the users main gallery.

Is there any way to bring up a users gallery by thumbnail and maybe selectively delete photos? (Via a checkbox perhaps).

I must say it's quite a substantial feature that is missing from Photopost.

You can view albums categories under approve photos in admin and delete photos sure.

Thanks Chuck, but that still doesnt help when the images are pretty much all in the Members Galleries, so all in the same category, just from different users.

Sorry what I meant was something like this

http://www.photopost.com/forum/photo...ss-delete.html

But that admins can use on a user by user basis too.

[Chuck S]

Feel free to use that modification if that suits your needs.

Well it does, but only partially, and as a mini stopgap.
Ideally I think it would be really useful to have that sort of feature in photopost, especially for Admins / Mods to use aswell. Maybe built into the profile section (where we can empty a users ALL photos).

So there's no better way to do it at the moment?

Not the way you want to do things.

I agree that photopost needs this feature...

well there is multiple ways of deleting photos. You can delete them by date range, by empty a whole category, Display categories at a time.

I guess the real way to do it by user all depends how to do things with as little overhead as possible.
