Greetings,

Is there any way (plugin, default setting, etc) to automatically delete comments that have not been approved after a certain period of time? I'm a programmer, and like most programmers, I'm lazy. I prefer to make the machine work so I don't have to. That said, I also get spam comments which are happily caught by Spam Protector. I can delete them by hand, but I'd much rather see them clobbered by the system.

So, does it exist, or do I need to write it?

Thanks!

Well, someone would need to write it. Perhaps just a link on the page, "Delete unapproved comments older than _ days" or something?

Well then, I guess it's time to learn to write plugins for S9Y ...

We could certainly use the help. We're a pretty small community, and with the holidays over, everybody is getting busy at their regular jobs again.

It's really pretty easy, and we'll be happy to answer any questions you might have.

It would be very useful when this kind of link is in the source code of the Comments section, so no extra plug-ins are needed.

If the comments are in an array, I think it's quiet easy to build it (altough I don't know much about PHP ).
