Hello ! I have Event Espresso – Version 4.9.63.p I was searching around, and looks like there should be a Clean up Old Messages under Messages->Settings .. But I do not see anything there. Not sure what the issue is ?? Thanks, |
|
More Info – We have a multisite wordpress, and EE is not the main website. As per my previous conversation with Josh, the license-key is put into the main website. And, I DO see the clean up Old messages on the Main website, but not under the EE website. And I set the one under main website to delete everything older than 3 months, but it does not seem to be working. All the messages are still there. Would it harm something if I manually delete the records from wp_2_esp_messages from mysql ? Thanks, |

Hi Amit, After you make the settings change it will require some time before the messages will be removed because the old message clean up will happen as a scheduled task. You could end up doing some harm if you go in and start deleting rows from the database. |

Hi Josh, So it looks like the cleanup has not happened yet. I set up the “cleanup” to 3 months or older on Friday morning, on the “main wordpress site” where this option is available. But nothing has been deleted. I see all the messages still there in my “actual wordpress site” .. ?? Thanks, |

You have messages in the queue that are older than 3 months, right? (Just checking as it sounds like you do) If you add a plugin such as WP Control and then go to Tools -> Cron events. Look for ‘AHEE__EE_Messages_Scheduler__cleanup’, what does it show for ‘last run’?
|
|
LOL ! Yes, I do have messages that are older than 3 months .. I installed the plugin. It didn’t show any ‘last run’ column. However, I tried to do a “Run Now” and that didn’t seem to delete anything .. |
|
Which means the cron hasn’t run.
Did the ‘last run’ column update after you clicked that? |
|
There is no Last Run column, but there is a next run column, and here is the entire row – AHEE__EE_Messages_Scheduler__cleanup None EE_Messages_Scheduler::cleanup() 2019-02-05 00:00:00 (5 hours 56 minutes) Once Daily |
|
When you click the “Run Now” link for AHEE__EE_Messages_Scheduler__cleanup, that should delete every message from before 3 months ago. What’s the date on the oldest message logged in Event Espresso > Messages? |
