    I’d like to request a way to have Flamingo auto-trash all submissions older than 30 days, rather than just spam submissions.

    I propose either a filter or constant to be used.

    Thanks ??

    I’d like to implement this feature and submit a PR, but please advise on how you would like it to be done.

    I don’t think this feature is necessary.

    Okay, thanks for getting back to me ??.

    This feature is necessary and i need it

    I searched looking for something similar

    (But from an hour and above as opposed to 30days)

    I wonder why most plugin author’s are this way ? Just why? – someone offered to do something nice and you immediately dismiss it as being “unecessary” – why?

    While I understand the feature may be useful, you must understand the author’s point of view.

    The author maintains several plugins, each of which are extremely popular and used on many WordPress sites. Adding more features makes the plugin more difficult to maintain, and possibly more complex. Additionally, the author provides these plugins and support for them free of charge, and most likely in his spare time.

    Regardless, since I need this feature, I planned to make an addon plugin that will do this. Once I finish, I will publish it and let you know.

    I’m interested for auto-deletion, too (in order to implement the GDPR “right to be forgotten).

    This plugin seems to be doing it already (but of course it also does a lot of other stuff): https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/gdpr-framework/

    This plugin seems more approriate but abandoned:
