Cleanup impact (legacy spam scanning results)

Feature

Cleanup impact — Summarizes the results of your last Cleanup run (e.g., suspicious comments flagged) and links you to the Cleanup tool.

How it works

Cleanup scans existing database items in safe batches, re-scores them, and lets you choose actions like Report-only, Move to Spam, or Delete.

How to access / enable

  1. WP Admin → AegisSpamGuard → Dashboard
  2. In “Cleanup impact”, click “Open Cleanup”.

Recommended setting

Recommended: Run Report-only first, then Move to Spam.

Report-only validates the scan before making changes; Move to Spam is safer than delete until you confirm accuracy.

Why you need this

Admins often inherit sites with years of spam—Cleanup makes it fast and safe to get the database back under control.
