Deleting loads of Spam comments - Can't find K2 Comments in phpMyAdmin was created by Luis Bango
Hi folks,
I made the mistake of not disabling K2 comments and now I have thousands of spam comments that I need to delete.
I'm trying to find the K2_comments table in phpMyAdmin and can't find it anywhere after scouring for a long time.

Can someone identify the location?  I've attached a screenshot of my tables below.
thank you

Luis in Vermont

These are the databases. Find the actual database that your site is using and then locate the xyz_k2_comments table (replace xyz with your actual database prefix). Truncate that table and you're done.

Thanks Fotis.
I've searched high and low with no success. I'll give it another try.
Should the K2 tables be within the Joomla dB?

thanks,
Luis

Yes, of course. You need to click on the database that corresponds to your site. IN THERE you'll find the relevant xyz_k2_comments table to truncate.
