Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications By Matt Monday at 02:04 PM
socceronly Posted March 1, 2017 Posted March 1, 2017 Working on a site that had a rather epic level of spam posts. I have deleted these, but they still show up in the Activity stream for Unread Content. For example, an article with a spam comment. When you go to that article the comment is indeed gone, but it still shows up in the Activity stream. I would assume, no matter how much time goes by, anyone who has read everything else, this will show up for them. Is there any way to wipe this stuff out of the Activity Stream? Thanks JM

Status update spam, I flagged the user as Spammer, then later deleted all those accounts For the the Comments that were in a forum, I emptied the forum. I think the ones that are showing up, but I am not sure, are comments made on articles that were not in the forum, but were on accounts that were deleted. Gallery comments I deleted manually, those no longer show in the Activity stream.

Can you submit a ticket? it doesn't sound quite right, when anything is deleted through IPS4 it should also be removed from the search index.

Thanks Stuart. I'll do that. Just want to check with the hive mind before submitting a ticket, you guys are busy enough.
