e-card spam ... how to get rid of 4000 posts? :)
« on: May 25, 2008, 12:03:55 pm »

hi folks,

stupidly, i made my board public and left the ecard function up.  havent checked for a while, but was wondering why my server log was so big and my site so popular all of a sudden.  i've got 4000 spam postcards sitting in my database now.

any way to remove them without nuking the whole board?

thanks!

Disable the ecard option for guests at the group config page.
Or read the documentation: http://coppermine-gallery.net/demo/cpg14x/docs/index.htm#group_cp
