Cleanup images before update from J1.0 to J3.10 (or J4) was created by seagul30
Hi,
I am just about to update a J1.0 with CB 1.1
I want to cleanup before I upgrade.

There are many inactive users that we want to remove including all their images and galleries.
I just tested to delete a user but the images remain in /images/comprofiler/ and images/comprofiler/plug_profilegallery/
Is there a script or something I could use?

Thanks
Sigrid

We've no such script. Plugins now do all their clean up on user delete, but back then several didn't. In the /images/comprofiler/plug_profilegallery folder though it should be organized by user id. So you should be able to just delete every folder associated with the user ids of the users you're deleting. For avatars in /images/comprofiler the files should all be prefixed with the user id and an underscore so you should be able to search for and delete their avatars there as well. All of this properly cleans up now, but unfortunately just wasn't the case that long ago.

Thanks for your reply.
The users are still there, there are just really many inactive ones.
I will upgrade then first and then delete them in the new version, then the images should be deleted.
I just thought I could save time on migrating less stuff.
