I was trying to help you sort out the PM problem Have you tried to download all your PMs into a CSV file onto Excel ?

luvTooQuilt

im sorting thru and copying all important pms - personal info & bad children-

and deleting them all when Im done.. As hostess I wont have enough space for my PMs otherwise.. I can easily surpass my limit each and every swap..

Its one of those things that Ill have to deal with with the new site... for now its just really annoying and time consuming..

Trust me I understand - I had to do the download into a CSV file and start over I had over 20,000 - I guess I understand if all members save 500 messages- can you imagine the size of server they would need ? YIKES

luvTooQuilt

ok so tell me is there a way to click on a member and see ALL to and/or ALL from ?

then do a HUGE delete by member??

Please tell me yes and show me how !!! I beg of you SAVE ME !!


Server would be the same size- it would be the 'space' on the server and its not cheap by no means..

If you make a new folder (I made one called buddies) and move PM's you want to save in there, then you can delete the rest 49 at a time. Took me a while but I finally figured it out. Now all the PM's I want to keep are in a separate folder and the rest are deleted.

Yes, you can sort by member. At your list of PM's, at the title bar above the start, there appears Title/Sender. These are interactive. Click on Sender and they will be sorted by member name. You can easily reorder the date by clicking on Date to the right.
