Messages to be automatically deleted after some days
By jekwumoore
Any idea on how messages can be automatically deleted after some days.
Will be useful to save some space in database especially when there is a high rate of messages flying around in one's site

"automatically' ?
Learn about Elgg's Pseudo-CRON thang
OR
Real Linux CRON (not for the faint hearted;)
Well it's easy enough to create a cron job using Elgg, that combined with a function that deletes entities from age does the job.
In your plugins start.php you should just place a line like this, and create a function that does your thing :-)
register_plugin_hook('cron', 'weekly', 'your_cunning_function_cron_hook');
Good luck
I have not created any plugin. Never tried. I guess no solution for now
please make some plugin like this ?
