Hi,

I recently stumbled across a message (in v. 3.8.4) I've never seen before while trying to delete a node. Here it is, freely translated from Norwegian:

[quote]
Warnings:

The lines that are marked with red contain more than the maximum amount of nodes that can be removed this way. They will not be removed. You can remove them using the script "Subtree Remove".
[/quote]

I've never heard of such a script, and I'm unable to locate any information about it (and the ez.no search being unavailable doesn't help).

Does anyone know anything about this script?

Thanks in advance !

Sincerely,

Hi Eirik,

This script is placed under bin/php/ezsubtreeremove.php and takes 2 parameters. 

Options:
  --nodes-id=VALUE  Subtree nodes ID (separated by comma ',').
  --ignore-trash    Ignore trash ('move to trash' by default).

Execute it from root node.

php bin/php/ezsubtreeremove.php

It's in a doc for eZ 3.9: http://pubsvn.ez.no/nextgen/trunk/doc/features/3.9/ezsubtreeremove_script.txt

The changelog of 3.8.4 (<i>http://ez.no/download/ez_publish/changelogs/ez_publish_3_8/changelog_3_8_3_to_3_8_4</i>) mentions some related INI setting:
<i>Added content.ini[RemoveSettings].MaxNodesRemoveSubtree Maximum number of nodes to remove (using Remove Subtrees feature)</i>, so I guess it was added in this 3.8 release.

Hi guys,

Thanks for your prompt response. After doing some additional searching, I came across this bug report which explained the problem:

http://ez.no/de/community/bugs/remove_many_objects_does_not_work_correctly

However, the script is not available withj the 3.8.4 distro (not mine, at least), so I had to add it manually.

Thanks anyway !

Sincerely,

My fresh 3.8.6 install misses it too.

I'll report this as a bug ( http://issues.ez.no/IssueView.php?Id=9313 ).

Thanks for noticing!

i think , in this case deleting should be done directly in database, because deleting, when you need to create ph objects, to make thousands of queries takes a lot of time. Any extension which i try, and which is using ez php framework - gives me timeout...

For example, i need to delete 22 000 nodes. No extenstion at the moment can do this. With PHP - forget about it...

{set-block scope=root variable=cache_ttl}0{/set-block}
