    Hi,

    When a post is deleted (I’d be using the filtering to delete posts older than a certain date) does that also delete the images that are in that post?

    If not which add on would I need? I see addons for deleting attachments but I only want the images deleted if the post has been deleted.

    Also if I wanted to schedule this would I only need the addon Scheduler for Deleting Posts by Status?

    Thanks,
    Karen

    Hello Karen,

    Right now it doesn’t delete images in a post when that post is deleted.

    If not which add on would I need? I see addons for deleting attachments but I only want the images deleted if the post has been deleted.

    I am currently working on an addon to do this. It is not available yet, but I can give a beta version to you for testing.

    Also if I wanted to schedule this would I only need the addon Scheduler for Deleting Posts by Status?

    Yes you would need an addon to scheduled the deletion.
