Guestbook mass delete?

Beitrag von bpwukorg »

Ages ago we set-up an Admidio Guestbook for a quick look at the functionality, but got distracted and didn't finish off. It's since been discovered by spammers meaning that there are many thousands of garbage messages on it... :roll:
How do we empty the database please of these? Everything can go, there are no legitimate posts in it since we never got that far...
Thanks very much!

Hi you can simply delete the content of your database tables adm_guestbook_comments and adm_guestbook.

Also you can deactivate the guestbook in the global preferences.

Do you have access to PhpMyAdmin to administrate your database?

There you have the option to empty a table. You should to that with the tables adm_guestbook_comments and adm_guestbook.
