We are still working on a test installation of XF before our migration from vb. Unfortunately I forgot to enable a higher level of registration checking than the default and some spam bots have registered, posting tens of thousands of threads already in the last 10 days.
I have now set the reg so it has to be manually approved from now on (like our existing vb).
However all the spam is still on our test board. When I tried to use the spam cleaner on one of the threads, the Spam cleaner popup appeared and when I hit the "Clean Up" button, it seems to work for a while but then nothing happens. It stops, the popup stays there, and the spammers threads are not deleted.
Is there a way to fix this so it works, or is there a way I can manually delete all threads started after a certain date?
Thanks
