Greetings
I’ve looked at this thread https://theeventscalendar.com/support/forums/topic/auto-deleting-past-events/ but apparently, the plugin isn’t existing anymore…
What are my options if I want such functionality (deleting events that are past X months ago and that are not recurring)?
Thanks!
Hey Nickolas, nice to see you again!
The closest thing I’ve seen to that was that plugin you mentioned–but, yeah, looks like it’s gone.
Event Rocket is another one that has some great features built in–once of which allows you to clean up past events. I am not sure it does it on an automated basis, but it might be worth looking into.
Will that work for you? Please let me know. 🙂
Cheers!
GeoffWell, I’m already using The Events Calendar and all the code and integration is pretty much completed… I’d prefer to stick with what’s working properly instead of diving into some plugin I don’t even know. 😀
Perhaps there is some plugin to “auto-delete” custom post type directly based on the “post creation’s date”? I’ll make a search tomorrow and let you know what I come up with.
Regards
Just to clarify: Event Rocket is an extension to The Events Calendar. In other words, there’s nothing new to learn–just features added to it. 🙂

Oh, I didn’t know that…
So I tried it, and it only enable complete data cleanup, not specific date-related clean up (ex: delete all events that are more then past 2 months old).
Perhaps in a later version it could provide a “cron type” url to remove old events on a daily basis… until then, I’ll just keep them all. Maybe I’ll do a manual cleanup once a year, no biggie.
Edit: Bulk Delete’s (WordPress.org link) Pro Version (their website link) provide the functionality of scheduling the removal of custom post type (so “tribe_event” in my case) that are older then X days.
I’ll submit this workaround to the client… he’ll do the buying this time! 😀
