You must log in to post replies.Hi, Steve,
Are any of these user-generated, or is it just test data/spam? I would not advise deleting user posts just because your database is too big, in fact, that seems like a good problem to have!
Hi Evan
I have to delete some of them because my database is too large, according to my hosting company. Alot of it is spam though, and over a year old.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Steve
If they are spam, probably most spams are created by single user. So deleting a user will remove all the blogs and other contents associated with that spam account.
