The other posts cover how to clean things up when there is a relevant request around the time that cleaning is desired. If you want the cleaning to be done on a regular basis, the Scheduler is the weapon of choice. There's a good description in the book, at <URL:http://web2py.com/books/default/chapter/29/04/the-core#web2py-Scheduler> and you can find a bunch of posts in the forum archives. /dps -- Resources: - http://web2py.com - http://web2py.com/book (Documentation) - http://github.com/web2py/web2py (Source code) - https://code.google.com/p/web2py/issues/list (Report Issues) --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.
