Age, in days, of content to purge from users’ File Manager Trash

[sahostking]

What do I set this to? If I set it to 7 does it clean it every 7 days only? If I set it to 0 will it clear it each day?

Thanks

Hello @sahostking,

The value entered for this setting corresponds with the age of the file. For instance, if you enter "7", files seven days old or older deleted via File Manager and existing in a user's .trash directory are removed during the daily upcp run. A value of 0 configures the server to purge all files from every user's .trash folder, regardless of age. The following script is available if you want to purge the files manually:

/usr/local/cpanel/bin/empty_user_trash

This option is documented at:

Tweak Settings - System - Documentation - cPanel Documentation

Thank you.
