Bulk Trash by URL helps editors and SEOs quickly clean up content by trashing items based on a list of URLs. Paste your URLs, let the plugin map each URL to a post ID (handles common variations like trailing slashes and marketing query params), select what you want to remove, and process in efficient batches with progress feedback.
Key features:
<ul>
<li>Paste URLs to find matching posts, pages, and custom post types.</li>
<li>Fast URL-to-post mapping in AJAX batches with progress bar.</li>
<li>Select exactly which items to trash before running.</li>
<li>Batched trashing with live progress, pause/resume controls.</li>
<li>Optional completion summary with counts and lists (trashed, failed, no permission, invalid).</li>
<li>Settings to tune performance and limits:
<ul>
<li>Max Page Size (mapping batch size)</li>
<li>Max URLs per run</li>
<li>Toggle completion summary</li>
<li>Optional mode to set matched items to Private instead of Trash</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
Built for large lists and long-running jobs. Everything goes to the WordPress Trash, so you can restore or permanently delete as you normally would.
Capabilities & security:
<ul>
<li>Restricted to users who can <code>manage_options</code>.</li>
<li>Nonce-protected AJAX endpoints.</li>
<li>Conservative sanitization and server-side validation.</li>
</ul>
Compatibility notes:
<ul>
<li>Works with sites using pretty permalinks. Mapping relies on WordPress <code>url_to_postid()</code> and common URL variants.</li>
<li>Custom post types are supported if they use public, front-end URLs.</li>
</ul>
