Thanks for looking into this for me. I'll watch for your reply.

thank you

When pruning your are removing the threads/posts from the forum forever. If you want you can retain attachments (altho they will have no posts, but if directly linked they will still work) you can make this change to the code:

open /forumroot/admincp/thread.php

Find:

PHP Code:

            delete_thread($thread['threadid'], 0); 


Replace with:

PHP Code:

            $delinfo = array('keepattachments' => 1);
            delete_thread($thread['threadid'], 0, 1, $delinfo);
