How to delete all the threads of a certain user

[jire4]

To fight the spammers, I'd like to delete automatically all the threads created by a certain user. I don't know how to carry it out.

I've read about "PHPBB Admin ToolKit" (Starfoxtj), but it was discontinued... and my forum is run by phpBB 2.0.10

Any idea to do this? Can I download that script from any website? Thank you very much.

Welcome to the site

First, I would recommend updating your phpBB to a newer version. I believe the last of the 2.0.X line was 2.0.23, so running 2.0.10 you may run into a lot of issues, some security related.

As for your question, there are a few options you have, first, you could check out Thoul's Post Remover hack found here:

There's also these, which delete the user and all their posts too:

Good luck!

Great answer. You jumping in makes me all nostalgic, Brandon. Post Remover is a great hack.

Welcome aboard, jire4.
