…and for some reason the underscore in “wp_comments” doesn’t appear in my comment. Hmm.

The SQL in the "Delete spam comments" box looks a little iffy. DELETE from wp_comments WHERE comment_approved = '0'LETE from wp_1_comments WHERE comment_approved = '0' would probably work better as DELETE from wp_comments WHERE comment_approved = '0'; DELETE from wp_{n}_comments WHERE comment_approved = '0' where {n} is the ID of the multisite site from the wp_blogs table.

Any idea if WP-Optimize is WPMU_2.9.1./BP_1.2 friendly?

I am using Optimize DB (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/optimize-db) but am not sure if does anything more than what it says it does…optimize your database.

So I may be looking to switch.

As always, thanks for the great info.

A great way to keep the post revisions under control all the time is to use the Revision Control Plugin.

It’ll just delete the revisions of posts as they get old enough. Most of my sites are set to 5 revisions only.
