Request Entity Too Large
 

Hi, When trying to delete hundreds of spam posts which are under "Moderated Posts" in the CP I get the following message:

----------------------------------------

Request Entity Too Large

The requested resource
/forum/modcp/moderate.php
does not allow request data with POST requests, or the amount of data provided in the request exceeds the capacity limit.

----------------------------------------

Anyone know how to fix this so I can delete all these posts at once? Thanks

You could try this: edit the file modcp/moderate.php, and around line 385 make this change (add the part in red):


then you won't see them all at the same time, but once you delete a batch you should be able to go back and see the next batch. Also, I just picked 100 arbitrarily, you may be able to increase it and still have it work.

Thanks for the suggestion but I tried it and it didn't work! :( (I even increased the number over 100)

Any other ideas?

Hmm...that may have been the wrong place. Try this, around line 355:


and if it still happens maybe try reducing the number to less than 100.

Is the error happening when you submit the page after selecting the psts to delete?

Correct, the error is happening when I submit the page after selecting the posts I want to delete.

IT'S WORKING!!!!

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!

It basically is bringing up 100 at a time and then allowing me to delete them... this is def. better then going through each one individually... thank you !!

Great info. Saved me a struggle!
