Post Pruner Pro

All the power of Post Pruner, plus bulk actions, all post types, a full content audit log, and scheduled auto-pruning rules.

v1.3.1 · Requires Post Pruner Free · WordPress 5.8+ · PHP 7.4+ · GPL v2

Bulk actions

Trash, draft, or set to private dozens of posts in one go.

All post types

Manage pages, custom post types, and any other public content — not just posts.

📋

Audit log

Every trash, draft, and private action logged — who did it, what they touched, and when.

Scheduled pruning

Set rules that automatically draft or trash old posts on a daily, weekly, or monthly schedule.

Pro Features

Everything in Post Pruner Free, plus the features below.

Bulk Actions

Select multiple posts and move them to Trash, set them to Draft, or set them to Private in a single action. Confirmation dialogs prevent accidental changes.

All Post Types

The free plugin is limited to Posts. Pro removes that restriction — manage pages, WooCommerce products, and any other registered public post type from the same screen.

Post Type Filter

When multiple post types are active, a dropdown filter lets you narrow the view to a single type. A Post Type column is added to the table automatically.

Content Audit Log

Every action taken within Post Pruner is recorded: what was done, to which post, by whom, and when. The post title is snapshotted at action time so the log stays accurate even if the post is later deleted.

CSV Export

Export any filtered view of the audit log to CSV. Filter by action type, user, or date range first, then export exactly what you need. Excel-safe UTF-8 BOM included.

Scheduled Auto-Pruning

Define rules that automatically trash or draft posts older than a set age. Run rules on a daily, weekly, or monthly schedule — set it once and let Post Pruner keep your content library clean.

Term Exclusions

Protect posts in specific categories or tags from being touched by a pruning rule. Exclude evergreen content, featured posts, or entire sections of your site from automatic actions.

Dry-Run Preview

Before a rule runs, preview exactly which posts would be affected. Adjust the rule until you are confident, then enable it — no surprises.

Run Notifications

Optionally receive an email when a scheduled rule runs and affects posts. The notification lists the post titles affected and links directly to the audit log.
