XF 1.3 Delete Threads

[Michael Brickhouse]

I had to make a new admin login and password to get into my site , there has been a lot of spam profiles and posts, I can not delete the posts , am I missing something >banning the member and or ip does not delete posts. I do not have or my original login and password would not work . Everything is set to Super Administrator am I missing something . Thanks Mike https://www.talkgear.net/

have you tried using spam banningthem? if their post count is too high you can change the threshhold that spam/cleaner ban checks for here

yoururl/admin.php?options/list/spam#_maxContentSpamMessages

you also need to go into spam management options, setup a 'honeypot key' and 'akismet' key. After setting that up, I've had virtually zero spam.

I did a couple things on your list but I remember when I built it there was more thread options when you are logged in as the admin ? Thanks Mike
