I realize this script would have slim use for the masses but I was wondering if anyone knew of a script that would batch delete all subfolders in /uploads .  I reset my board every 6 months (because it is used for a class I teach) and I need to destroy everything that has been uploaded.  Does anyone know of a way that doesn't involve manually deleting the files.

See what I want?  Really a script that I could add to the admin menu with the Batch Delete Members, etc. that would Batch Delete All Uploaded Files.

Any Ideas?  Should this be in the MOD category?

OK.I Will start working on it.

But you can also go to ftp, upload folder, select all and in one click delete them all

Yeah, I know you can delete through FTP but the problem is I work with a school system and we can only go in through Frontpage.  I know how to do all of it from the back side but I have also set a few copies up for other teachers and they barely have the knowledge to run the website, much less go in through Frontpage and delete a directory.

I think that if you get something created though, Bruce should put it as part of the Admin in future versions.
