Delete all links/directories
Hello,

Is there a mod/tool/way to delete all links and related directories quickly and cleanup the whole thing fast?

Thanks

In the resource center, there is a Bulk Delete Mod...although this has been written for the Language Links script.

One suggestion...access your account via telnet, then use the following command line:

Code:
rm /links/*

OR simply use FTP and select all directories under links and delete them.

Regards,

Thank you, Eliot. I guess I will try the telnet method tomorrow. I wanted to delete everything in one installation, but I will try it tomorrow.

However, I am not sure I understand the FTP method you are talking about. I have ws_ftp pro 6.0. It does not have any provision like that. Unless I delete the files inside I can not delete a directory. The directory has to be empty. Are you using cute-ftp or talking about something else?

Thanks

Uh...All you do is highlight your links directory and then select delete, then all your files and web pages will be deleted. LOOK at the WS_FTP manual or help files for more information!
