Atixnet Auto-Delete

This module automatically delete or unpublish contents on the website.

The module use the Drupal crons to delete or unpublish content automatically once a day.
The items to delete or to unpublish are enqueued by lot, default 50 at a time by content types.

Settings allow you to define :

• The limit of items of each content types to delete / unpublish at each cron queue execution.
• To reset the cron launch of the day (if settings changes and you need to start deleting / unpublishing)
• For each content types :
  • The action to do (none, delete, unpublish)
  • The delay in days, before executing action (based on creation date)

This module is similar to :

• node_expire
• auto_expire

I have developped this module because I needed something easy (not using rules) and quick to delete contents on a project. Because this project hosts a lot of content, I also needed that the cron use queue system.
