How can I prune my PM's? I want to delete them all, thanks.

Your own or all your users' PMs?

Thrilling · February 15, 2011, 01:32:59 PM

All users

What if the users have information they want to keep?

We've given them adequate notice. I mainly want to delete the old old ones, but I'm having trouble with phpmyadmin and the personal messages table. It won't let me go to the last page, basically. So I was thinking of emptying the whole table.

Thanks

Thee are two tables to empty, the one with messages, and the recipients table.

You will also need to reset the counters in members table for every user.

Will the option in Forum Maintenance called Recount all forum totals and statistics, sort that for me? Thanks.

No, it won't, IIRC.

Hm, okay thanks mate. My pages button in phpmyadmin doesn't work, I press page 12 and it goes back to page 1. Any ideas?

It's working now, don't worry. Solved, cheers
