Where can I find someone who can modify my vB 4.0 code?
Each week I delete attachments older than 30 days. In 3.8 someone modified the code so it showed 1,000 attachments per page. After "upgrading" to 4.0, it went back to showing 10 per page. I currently have thousands of attachments needing to be deleted, deleting a pageful at a time will take forever at 10 per page. Can someone help?
The page I talk about is vB4 Admin Panel>Attachments>Search>Find All Attachments Older Than 30 Days>Search

You can start moderating attachments :)

Every week I need to remove many more attachments than the admin let's me delete in a reasonable time. When it was set up to show 1,000 per page things were easy peasy. How does moderating attachments assist me with this in any way? I don't need to auth images before they are shown, I need to keep the qty stored on my server below 30 days worth to avoid going over on my storage ceiling. Please advise?

Moderating attachments is the same thing for posts. Before they display to everyone, mods or admins will need to approve. You can choose to delete them too

That's what I thought. I have no problems at all with users attaching objectionable photos, so no need to moderate them. My problem is that they upload so many pics, that they throw me over my limit if I don't routinely delete old ones.
I got sloppy the past few weeks and skipped the weekly delete, then upgraded to vB 4.0, so now I am finding myself way over my limit with thousands of attachments, and only able to delete 10 at a time. I need to find someone I can pay to tweak my code such that this page shows 1,000 at a time, so a can mark all and delete.
Is there a place where I can locate a person able to help me out here? A vB tech directed me here, am I asking in the wrong forum?

Just wanted to bump this thread as I am relying on finding someone who who can code this into my vB4, as a vB tech recommended I do...
At vB4 Admin Panel>Attachments>Search>Find All Attachment older than X Days I am shown only 10 attachments at a time, and so can only delete 10 at I time. I need to be able to see/delete 1,000 at a time.
I expect to pay for this work to be done - if I am asking in the wrong place, please would someone let me know?

I am prepared to pay for this, is there no one who can help? I'm not getting so much as a peep here. I need to find someone ASAP who is capable of this. I am not looking for a free handout, I am more than willing to pay for what I need, can someone, anyone please reply and point me in the right direction? I'm finding it hard to believe no one wants my money, someone out there must be capable of this - please let me know where I can turn for help, if not here.
