We have over 200,000 listings on our site and need to bulk delete a majority of them. We tried a plugin and manually deleting but it takes too long or times out.

Hi Kendalljones,

To do something like that, you’ll absolutely need a SQL query. The WP admin dashboard for BD won’t handle that many listings in a bulk delete because we’re forced to use WP API calls to remove listings which de-associates the right metadata. For this, you need dynamite. 🙂

Contact me here and I can get you the queries you’ll need for this. http://businessdirectoryplugin.com/contact/
