Phpbb Spam Delete - forum

I installed phpbb forum in my website. But there is lot of spam topics and spam post in it right now.
I went through many googling and found out that if I install a captcha module then I could prevent spam. But is there anyway I could remove spam which is already in the forum database now? I mean without using delete for each post/topic.

In phpbb admin, goto admin tab "USERS AND GROUPS", then under "User security" click prune users. Under the prune users text box is a select member link which will popup a member list. Under the member name(spammer) click select. So you can select all the spammers you want. Under the member select link are some radio buttons.
Delete pruned user posts:
Removes posts made by deleted users, has no
effect if users are deactivated.
Click: Yes
Deactivate or delete:
Choose whether to deactivate users or delete
them entirely. Please note that deleted users cannot be restored!
Click: Delete

Removing Unwanted Azure AD Directories from my Listing

My Azure Subscription is listing Default Directories from other people's subscriptions within my "All Directories" listing. I want to remove them...but I'm having an EXTREMELY difficult time doing it.
I have contacted the owners of these directories...and they do not respond to my requests to be removed
This has been going on for months
Q: How do I dis-associate myself and/or remove these directories from my listing?
UPDATE:
Unfortunately, the "Leave New Experience" on https://myapps.microsoft.com does not display enough information to be sure "which" Default Organization I am leaving.
I could accidentally leave my own...right?
I took a chance...and it threw an exception...so this UI doesn't work
This works even for personal addresses:
Go to https://myaccount.microsoft.com?tenantId={directoryId} (replace {directoryId} with guid of the directory you wish to leave), click Organizations, click Leave, verify that guid is correct and confirm.
You can try this,
Log into the Access Panel at https://myapps.microsoft.com
In the upper-right corner, select your name.
Next to Organizations, select the settings icon (gear).
Under Organizations, find the organization that you want to leave, and select Leave organization.
NOTE : If you are not seeing the gear icons next to organizations, you need to switch to the new old look by clicking on leave new experience as below
You can go to https://myaccount.microsoft.com/organizations to leave AAD organizations that you have been invited to.

Sharepoint user permission

I have a SharePoint site where I am the admin and I have full control permission. One of the users created a link on the navigation menu, but I cannot edit it or delete it. The user is no longer on the site. I checked the permission again, and it shows I have full control.
How do I modify or delete the link and its page?
I tried giving myself more permission, but that did not help. I thought full control covers everything.
On the edit mode, some links are editable, but the one I need to remove doesn't give me that option.
If it is a link to a list/library, it might not be permissions related. Check the List/Library Settings, "Name, Description and Navigation" option:

Azure Active Directory Company Branding - Can't Edit

I've configured Company Branding (Images, Text, etc.) using Azure Active Directory > Company branding > Configure, and works fine.
However, I can't find any way to actually go back and edit the branding (update/delete), etc.
When I go into Company branding now, it just shows a record with LOCALE as Default, and no edit button. And the Delete button is grayed out.
How can I either remove the branding I applied, or edit it (Ideally) to use different images, etc.
Thanks in advance.
When I go into Company branding now, it just shows a record with
LOCALE as Default, and no edit button. And the Delete button is grayed
out.
After you finish configuring, by default, the Delete button is grayed out. But if you want to change the image, you can click the Remove button and then you can update the new.
If your situation is different, please post your screenshot here.

How to allow any user can write blog post in orchard cms?

I want to allow create blog post for any login user.
orchard cms use look like for asking questions
Follow these steps once you have logged in to the Admin area:
Click 'Users' from the side menu
Click the 'Roles' tab
Edit the 'Authenticated' role
Scroll down until you find the 'Orchard.Blogs Feature' section.
From there you will see all the settings for Blog Posts.
As you want every logged in user to be able to edit Blog Posts, you most likely want to tick the 4 'Edit' and 'Publish' Blog Post options, but you also have the option of allowing them only to edit their own, if required. See below:
You also have the option of controlling who can manage individual Blogs, as well as who can delete them.
Hope that helps!

SharePoint 2013 people picker retrieves user's old information

I have imported users from AD and keep syncing them for a while. Today two of users' display names have been changed on AD and SharePoint synced them correctly. Just to be sure, I checked users from User Profile Service App which looks OK. New names are appearing correctly.
Yet when I try to add a list item and select user from people picker, I get old user info. This also happens when I try to insert a list item programmatically.
Tried to delete users from SharePoint, however I still get same old users. Do you have any idea for solving this situation?
Thanks in advance.
I found the solution. There was an another User Profile Service Application which was not used and not properly configured. Weird point is, that malconfigured app was not listed on service applications. I found it by using Get-SPServiceApplication cmdlet and removed it. After removal, did a full synchronization and voila! Now I can get current information.
This is may be because entry in SharePoint's hidden user-list - User Information List.
Browse to this list - http://{SiteCollectionURL}/_catalogs/users/detail.aspx
Check for the display name of the users you have updated. If you see old user name instead of new/updated, delete these users from this list.
After this ask user to login to the same site again.
