UPDATE: Expert Review Request – Timeline Cleanup Script Ready for Feedback!

Happy New Year 2026 to the entire UNA community! 🎉 Wishing everyone a prosperous year ahead! ✨

**Quick status:** Power outage + personal commitments delayed testing, but now **urgent** due to storage limits on a live production site. Currently restoring an old backup for staging.

**What I need from UNACMS experts (@LeonidS @unateam @Developers App India @CluBDeveloper @AQB Soft @Jerome Mingo and @Andrey Yasko ):**

**Does this approach look safe/sound for UNA 14?**

Code Snipped --------------

delete_old_timeline_posts.php is attached to this thread

Key improvements

Dry-run mode: First run shows exactly what would be deleted without touching anything.

Deployment steps

text
1. Save as /var/www/html/delete_old_timeline_posts.php
2. chmod 755 /var/www/html/delete_old_timeline_posts.php
3. touch /var/log/timeline_cleanup.log && chmod 666 /var/log/timeline_cleanup.log
4. Test: php /var/www/html/delete_old_timeline_posts.php
   → Check log for "dryRun: YES" results
5. If good: edit $dryRun = false; and $daysOld = 14;
6. Add cron: 0 3 * * * /usr/bin/php /var/www/html/delete_old_timeline_posts.php >/dev/null 2>&1
7. Monitor logs for 7 days
8. Then: $daysOld = 60;

Quick checks before running

Run these on your DB to preview:

sql
-- How many old posts?
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM bx_timeline_events WHERE type='post' AND date < UNIX_TIMESTAMP() - (86400*14);

-- Sample old posts
SELECT id, owner_id, object_id FROM bx_timeline_events WHERE type='post' AND date < UNIX_TIMESTAMP() - (86400*14) LIMIT 5;

-- Files linked to old events?
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM bx_files_2_timeline ft JOIN bx_timeline_events e ON ft.timeline_id = e.id 
WHERE e.type='post' AND e.date < UNIX_TIMESTAMP() - (86400*14);

Cascading deletes: Handles comments (bx_timeline_cmts), notifications (bx_ntfs_*), and files (bx_files_2_timeline, bx_files).

Per-event processing: Safer than bulk delete, logs each step.

Comprehensive logging: Full audit trail in /var/log/timeline_cleanup.log.

File cleanup: Removes DB entries for attached media (physical files need storage module cleanup if not automatic).

**Key questions:**

1. Will deleting old `bx_timeline_events` (type='post') cascade properly to related tables? (`bx_timeline_cmts`, `bx_ntfs_*`, `bx_files_2_timeline` / `bx_files`)

2. Any hidden dependencies or modules that recreate timeline entries?

3. File storage: Does UNA auto-delete physical files when `bx_files` rows are removed, or do we need extra hooks?

4. Better way via Studio app / API / cron service?

**My plan:**

1. Test dry-run on staging (old backup) → share results

2. Live: Phase 1 (14 days), monitor 7 days → Phase 2 (60 days)

3. Cron: daily 03:00 with lock/logging

**Goal:** Safe auto-pruning of timeline posts >60 days to control disk growth.

Your expert eyes would save weeks of trial/error! 🙏

delete_old_timeline_posts.php 4.3 KB

We applied this fix - https://github.com/unaio/una/commit/9e647172cc61b83f1d39aa7c2735cca0188ed600

but still get the error when a URL contains a "#timeline-event-1"

This Site still presents the same error, load this URL to replicate:

#timeline-event-28796" class="bx-link">https://una.io/#timeline-event-28796

This is a bug that is effecting other areas of the website:

https://github.com/unaio/una/issues/3278

You can see it in action in this UNA site, by closing the spaces in this URL and pasting it into your browser:

https: //una.io / #timeline-event-28796

If you past the full URL into a post it will generate a NEW bug, as follows and render the text as below:

#timeline-event-28796" class="bx-link">https://una.io/#timeline-event-28796

Thank you MSolutions for investigating.

MSolutions this appears to be caused by one of your products when someone visits a Timeline URL, similar to this one: #timeline-event-28796">https://una.com/#timeline-event-28796 the site does not load and it crashes.

MSolutions we need some help from you to resolve this as it does not happen when we turn off Prettylinks and User Names
