Feature request: Delete both

  • Is it possible to implement “delete both” if found duplicates? Ie. if there are 2 posts that are duplicates can I delete them both (not leaving any posts)? Right now it can only be done manually one by one, which takes a lot of time.

    Or maybe you could help me with MySQL deletion query modification so that I could edit this locally to suit my needs? Thank you

    I thought I’d clarify why there’s a need for such feature. The problem with deleting are URLs that are not sorted out, let’s say we have:
    Post name tomato https://site.com/post-name-tomato
    and then appears the duplicate
    Post name tomato https://site.com/post-name-tomato-2

    If we delete the older file which in my case is always way to go we’re left with
    Post name tomato https://site.com/post-name-tomato-2
    The “-2” at the end of URL is not fixed/removed

    So one idea to solve this would be to remove all the duplicates AND original files at one click an then re-import the new ones. But if there was a feature “keep new file but fix it’s URL removing -2,-3,-4 etc.” that would be even cooler…
