Bulk Delete PRO

Bulk Delete PRO is the paid edition of Bulk Delete. It removes groups of WordPress records that match selected conditions, including posts, pages, visitors, attachments, revisions and meta fields.

Post rules: standard filters and PRO options

Post rules can choose items by category, tag, custom taxonomy, custom post type, comment count or URL. You can also select draft, pending, private or scheduled posts. PRO adds rules for custom fields, titles, duplicate titles, post content, attachment presence, posts in the trash, and posts by visitor or user role.

For supported post rules, narrow matches by date, public or private visibility, or the first number of matching posts. Date filters select posts older or newer than a chosen number of days. Choose to move matches to the trash or delete them permanently. Automatic post deletion is available in PRO.

Page rules and deletion choices

Page rules cover published, draft, pending, private, scheduled and trashed pages. For supported page operations, apply date and visibility filters, limit the number of pages, and pick trash or permanent deletion. Automatic page deletion is available in PRO.

Users, revisions and other records

  • Delete users by role, user meta fields, last login period or registration date.
  • Delete all post revisions.
  • Delete attachments with PRO.
  • Remove post, comment or user meta fields.
  • Delete Jetpack Contact Form Messages.

Set up a cleanup rule

Install and activate Bulk Delete in WordPress, open its administration options, then select a deletion section and configure its conditions and filters. Choose an available deletion method or schedule. Permanent deletion cannot be recovered from the trash, so review the rule before running it.

If a execute involving a very large number of posts produces a blank page, an underpowered server may be the cause. Bulk Delete PRO support is available by email; the free version uses the forums.
