Administrative and Maintenance Tools - Shouts Autoprune for vBShout v2.0

Shouts Autoprune for vBShout v2.0

Please note! This hack was NOT made by me. It was made by S@NL - BlackBik. I have posted this with author's permission.


~ What does this hack do? ~
The script will delete all shouts older than xx hours. (You can change it to whatever you want, default is 24 hours.)
If you want to change it, you can do it by editing the deletion time in the vbshout_prune.php:

(TIMENOW - (60 * 60 * 24)

just change 24 to whatever suits you best.


~ Hack Installation ~
1. Download the attached php file and put in the /includes/cron directory.
2. Make a new scheduled task from ACP, "Add New Scheduled Task" (see attached image for more info).
Of course you can set it to run whenever you want and as often as you want, I have it running every night at 05:05.
