Comments on: How to identify and remove Wordpress comment spam MySQL queries http://www.makeyougohmm.com/20061207/4025/ Technology, music, video, art, news, reviews and muse on the web Tue, 16 Mar 2010 07:47:27 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.2 By: Lisa http://www.makeyougohmm.com/20061207/4025/#comment-805297 Lisa Thu, 06 Aug 2009 12:34:34 +0000 http://www.makeyougohmm.com/20061207/4025/#comment-805297 I was so excited to find that even with little mysql knowledge I could go in and wipe out all comments on the database with a few clicks of the button instead of going through Wordpress admin panel. Access your PHPMyAdmin and select Structure to see the files in the database.... find wp_comments .... and then click the "empty" icon. Voilla .. they are all gone! Whoo hoo, all 5800 of them. Would have taken forever if I tried to do that through Wordpress admin panel deleting 20 at a time. Thanks for this post, which lead me to PHPMyAdmin.
