LynK Ecommerce Template Expert Australia 696 Posts Pre-sales questions only (More Details...)	Posted - 12/04/2019 : 21:46:52 I have literally thousands of yahoo emails in my mailing list e.g. 12345@yahoo.com (12345=any 5 numbers). These are not customers. Is there an easy way to bulk delete them, rather than having to delete them one at a time. Thanks, Lyn
Vince Administrator 42874 Posts	Posted - 12/05/2019 : 00:44:11 Hi Lyn If these are not legitimate signups then they wouldn't be confirmed email addresses, no? If that is the case, from the "Action..." menu just choose, "Remove Old Unconfirmed" and they will all be deleted. I think "old" is over 30 days without having been confirmed.

LynK Ecommerce Template Expert Australia 696 Posts Pre-sales questions only (More Details...)	Posted - 12/05/2019 : 04:03:16 Hi Vince None of the email addresses are confirmed and I can't see a way to do that. "Action" menu does not give "Choose Old Unconfirmed" as an option. Thanks, Lyn
Vince Administrator 42874 Posts	Posted - 12/05/2019 : 05:05:39 Hi Lyn So were these recently added? You will only get the "Delete Old unconfirmed" action when there are old, unconfirmed emails. If you list the emails there should be 3 columns . . . Modify, Delete and Confirm and you should only get a Confirm button if the email is unconfirmed. But you don't want to confirm these anyway.

Vince Administrator 42874 Posts	Posted - 12/05/2019 : 07:01:59 Do you have the parameter... $noconfirmationemail=TRUE; ...in your includes.php file? Vince Click Here for Shopping Cart Software Click Here to sign up for our newsletter Click Here for the latest updater
LynK Ecommerce Template Expert Australia 696 Posts Pre-sales questions only (More Details...)	Posted - 12/07/2019 : 04:10:44 No, Vince. There are approx 12000 of these email addresses. It will take forever if I have to delete them one at a time. Thanks, Lyn
Vince Administrator 42874 Posts	Posted - 12/07/2019 : 04:17:52 Hi Lyn I'm trying to figure how these are confirmed email addresses. Do you have the $noconfirmationemail parameter set? If so it's a really bad idea as, as you can see, anyone can sign up with a fake email.

LynK Ecommerce Template Expert Australia 696 Posts Pre-sales questions only (More Details...)	Posted - 12/07/2019 : 04:22:39 No Vince. I do not have the $noconfirmationemail parameter set. Lyn
Vince Administrator 42874 Posts	Posted - 12/07/2019 : 04:40:35 OK, so the normal flow of things would be that these emails would never be confirmed and you could then just delete the lot with one click. Can you send me the site FTP login to my email (vince AT ecommercetemplates DOT com) and I'll have a look to see what's up and if necessary, sort out some kind of bulk delete.

LynK Ecommerce Template Expert Australia 696 Posts Pre-sales questions only (More Details...)	Posted - 12/07/2019 : 17:50:00 Thanks, Vince. I have sent you the login details to your email. Cheers, Lyn
Vince Administrator 42874 Posts	Posted - 12/08/2019 : 04:18:26 Hi Lyn The login you sent me is the store admin login rather than the FTP login so I can't investigate how these emails got to be confirmed. But I've added the Delete action to the Quick Entry on the mailing list admin page anyway and I've added the changes to the updater. I see you are on the v7.0 Stability Line and I can only add this to the v7.1 line but just get the v7.1 updater and copy the vsadmin/inc/incmailinglist.php script to your site as this will work on both versions.

Vince Administrator 42874 Posts	Posted - 12/10/2019 : 23:03:20 Hi Lyn I'll put that on the to-do list too then. Vince Click Here for Shopping Cart Software Click Here to sign up for our newsletter Click Here for the latest updater
