Just found out that one way to minimize the number of times to have to bulk “move to trash” is to go to Screen Options and select a larger number of comments to display on a page.

I have about 27k comments that not only made it through the Spam filter, but also made it through the moderation queue somehow. So I have 27k APPROVED spam comments. Around 100 of those are actually legitimate comments that I really want to keep. Is there any shortcut that I can use?

Hi,
Is there a way to delete all comments? I need to delete 400,000 approved comments which are also spam.

Thank you so much for this. I have been so frustrated with trying to figure out a way to delete these spam comments all at once.

Thanks again for sharing your technical knowledge!

Warm wishes,
