Delete Posts based on Users
-
Hi!
I think this feature is very important. I know you already have it in your wishlist. I was needing this to delete all that was created by the user “demo” I created when i import the demo content of my new theme.
Thanks! 😀

Do you want to have this feature as a separate section, where you can delete posts from a user or you want to this to be a filter inside existing sections like delete by category or tags?
I think is better as the existing filters. one of the major uses would be to delete “demo” content.
Okay. Let me try to get this feature in as well.
Thank you! Very cool. 😀
You can track the progress of this feature at https://github.com/sudar/bulk-delete/issues/6
I revised the plugin to perform deletes by userid. You can enter an ID and it will delete that user’s posts. I needed this feature myself and so I modified the plugin. You can copy/paste the code in the ‘wp-mass-delete.php’ file. I’m sure there is a better way to contribute this but I don’t have time right now
