Can't find the "trash" table in phpmyadmin
Permalink
I have some pages that won't delete entirely and I'd like to remove them from the database manually and can't find where. Where is the trash?
Did you delete them from the trash in the site map?
Yes... and there are a couple that don't delete and time out. I need to manually delete them.
Are they single pages or pages from a template?
template pages for most and a couple single... its a mix. This is happening over a few of my sites and there is always one troublesome page that won't delete in the sitemap. I assume this is more complicated than I had thought?
Each page has a unique cID number associated with it, and that cID is referenced in several of the tables. I created a demo page, found the cID, then in the Pages table, the cIsActive is 1, then I deleted it to the trash, it changed to cIsActive is 0, it also changed the parent id to that of the trash 108 in my case, then I deleted it forever from trash and it deleted the row in the database. I would look for cID in the database table column names and then search for your cID of the pages in question. Of course I would work in a duplicate version of your site and database to test your modifications.
