XF 2.2 Bulk Delete for Soft Delete

[MapleOne]

Hello fellow Xenforo members

On my forum there is one section I call Market Pages which pretty well works like a classified section.

Each member gets a topic where they can forever edit/delete their posts and other members posts as they become irrelevant.

For safety I have it set on soft delete just in case a member ever needs anything restored.

Once in a while if no problems arise I will go in and delete all the soft deletes in each topic.

The big thing here is I have to hit the "show" link before I can delete the soft deletes and then always one at a time.

For me there are two things here...

Some topics have dozens of soft deletes and I also don't think I need to read them. I much prefer to give my members some privacy on this one.

So my questions are...

1. Can I delete Soft Deletes without having to hit SHOW.

2. Can I bulk delete Soft deletes on a per topic basis?

1. Can I delete Soft Deletes without having to hit SHOW.

2. Can I bulk delete Soft deletes on a per topic basis?

for both: no, unfortunately not out-of-the-box with XF core.

But maybe this addon helps:

Challenges of Soft Deletion Soft deleting is the process of making unavailable data that the user once had access to and no longer can see. In other words, your post is never deleted from the community’s database. This information is retained...
