    Hello,

    You are trying to delete posts that are created more than 30 days ago. Are the posts in the photo category created more than 30 days ago?

    Also how is this post type created? Is it created using a plugin? If yes, then please let me know the name of the plugin. Sometime the plugins that creates the post types might prevent certain posts from getting queried.

    Please save the system information for you installation that can be accessed from Bulk WP -> System Info and attach it here.

    Apologies for the delay in responding.

    It looks like there was some compatibility issues with the types plugin, because of the way the post type was created.

    I just released v5.5.2 of the free Bulk Delete plugin with a compatibility fix for it. Kindly try it and let me know if you are still facing this issue.

    Thanks just tested this version and it worked. I’ll just keep the plugin now. I had written a sql statement and setup a cron to get around this.

    Glad to know that it is working properly now.

    Using a SQL statement may be a good short term fix, but the directly using SQL query to delete posts is that it may not delete other dependencies of the post like post meta, inherited posts, revisions etc. which might cause problems in the long run.

    I am marking this as resolved for now. Feel free to reopen if needed.
