Bulk Delete Pages by ID

Post by rameshraja »

Hi there,
I need help with something.

-- I need to delete some 200+ pages from my website using CMSMS.
-- I have content IDs and alias
-- They all are located under different different parent pages.
-- Randomly sorted

Is there a way i can delete them by using some script/ or can i fire a sql query which will COMPLETELY delete pages from database by giving their IDs??

please help

You CANNOT just delete the rows from the database. As there is meta-data that has to be maintained.

There is an API that can be used to delete content pages. However, you will be constrained by the maximum amount of time available for your script to process.

In essence, this is an advanced topic.... not easily discussed here.
