Hi everyone,
we need to delete all topics (about 3500) in a board without removing the whole board.
Since it's not a good idea to manually remove them via PMA, we're not founding alternatives in AdminCP.
Any suggestion?

Thanks in advance.

If those are spam posts and you want to delete all the spammers' posts then you can delete all of them using the inline moderation tool in the front-end.

Hi Glenn,
no spam posts. In this board are automatically created threads that link to news/articles in our site and these 3500 are duplicates that we have to remove for cleaning.
Deleting and recreating the whole board would require actions on the cms of the site, we just need to empty it

Are there replies and comments in those news/articles threads? And all posts belong to just one channel?

No replies/comments, each thread is a single post with a preview (image and text) and a link to the content on the www site; all of these threads are in the same channel.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
