supportIs it possible to implement “delete both” if found duplicates? Ie. if there are 2 posts that are duplicates can I delete them both (not leaving any posts)? Right now it can only be done manually one by one, which takes a lot of time. Or maybe you could help me with MySQL deletion query modification so that I could edit this locally to suit my needs? Thank you
I thought I’d clarify why there’s a need for such feature. The problem with deleting are URLs that are not sorted out, let’s say we have: Post name tomato http://site.com/post-name-tomato and then appears the duplicate Post name tomato http://site.com/post-name-tomato-2 If we delete the older file which in my case is always way to go we’re left with Post name tomato http://site.com/post-name-tomato-2 The “-2” at the end of URL is not fixed/removed So one idea to solve this would be to remove all the duplicates AND original files at one click an then re-import the new ones. But if there was a feature “keep new file but fix it’s URL removing -2,-3,-4 etc.” that would be even cooler…
