I have a small message board that has become filled with spam. I would like to remove all the inappropriate users and posters.
I have gone into the admin panel to prune the users and their posts, but it keeps giving me an error and I can’t delete them. All of the new users are set as administrators.
I have disabled the posting ability for now.
I would like the legitimate posts kept. They are all before a certain date, so it should be easy to filter those to keep in.
I would like the software updated. Also, if you could modify my settings so people can’t get in and do this again. I had an easy admin user and password, which I have now changed.
The software is from phpBB Group.
