This addon adds a simple Admin CP tool for clearing out soft-deleted content.
It is seperate to the ForumFortress anti-spam system which is currently under development.
This plugin doesn't actively stop spam, but is a useful tool to clear up anything that you used the XF spam tool to get rid of but don't want it lingering as soft deleted.
If your forum has built up hidden spam posts, old deleted threads, moderation leftovers or just general test posts & junk over time, this lets you remove it properly without manual database work.
It can purge hidden threads, hidden posts, or both. You can review what's going to be deleted prior to doing so.
There are options for batch size and age limits so you can be sensible about it on larger forums, and you can review what’s there before deleting anything.
If you already know you want it all gone, there is also a full purge / NUKE option.
It is lightweight, straightforward, and built to do one job.
If there is anything you may want back later, take a backup first.
