Clearing out Shoutbox
 

I've installed the Shoutbox in my board and me and my members love it!!

My concern is, it will get pretty lengthy eventually, so I would like to clear it out periodically. Is there a way to clean out the shoutbox? Like mass delete shouts from a certain date or anything? Any admin features with this or any other way to do it? Or does this by chance already happen after a certain time?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

The shoutbox comes with admin feature that allows you to mass delete shouts...

It does!? Can you tell me where because I cannot find it :(

Well for me it's in control panel under options.... It says delete shouts, just under vBulletin Options

yeah we just found it. had forgotten to add the link. Thanks :)

Glad I was finally able to help someone..... :)

Glad someone finally answered one of my threads :p How often do you usually clean out your shoutbox?

My board is new and doesn't have any members yet... just 4 of us.... I just knew where it was cause I installed it on my test board..... But I would say once a month maybe...

In the Admin control panel?
I can't find it either. All I see in the shoutbox and statistics, and a way to manualy delete each shout one at a time. I cant figgure out how to mass delete. Help.

*BUMP*
the easy way is to clear it out is in the sql database.

There is an auto prune CRON job that you can use. You can edit the php file to have the cron job keep x number of days of shouts.
