Beskrivning
This plugin schedules a daily event using wp_cron that deletes all comments marked ”spam” in the database, then optimizes the comments table.
Brief reason why I made such a low-tech plugin:
Akismet catches all the spam, but when I was looking at the size of my backups one day,
I noticed that there were large numbers of comment spam across several sites that were undeleted and they
made the databases fairly large. So I setup a cron job on my server that deletes the spam.
Since I had never written a plugin, I thought this might be helpful for those who do not have
a dedicated server, shell access to their site, or the knowledge of (or interest in ) cron to set this up.
Spam is not deleted until you start the schedule after the plugin is activated. I created buttons
to start and stop the schedule if you need that layer of control. There is also a button for deleting all spam manually.

Ändringslogg
- Version 1.0.2 – 5.28.09: Now optimizes the
wp_comments
table after spam is deleted. Updated DB call to allow for alternate wordpress table prefix. - Version 1.0.1 – 5.26.09: Minor update.
add_action
was added to the ”Delete Spam Daily” button so it would actually delete spam once a day. 🙂 In addition to a ”Stop Deleting Spam” button, a button was added that reschedules the cron to happen in 1 minute so you can be sure your crons are working right away. - Version 1.0 – 5.25.09: Initial Release. Included button to start deleting spam daily, and a button to delete spam immediately. Once the schedule was activated, it provided a button to stop the schedule. Shows current spam count and next scheduled delete.
