 * How can I bulk delete posts ? (not comments) – for example, deleting all posts
   in category123 . Is there a simplier way than to delete them throught phpMyAdmin?
   
   thanks.

 * There was a bulk-category-manager that used to do that. I know it worked on WP
   1.5 … but I dont know if it works on 2.x
