    WP Version 4.7.5 I think I am using phpBB

    I am using the bbpress forum tool. Everytime I try to delete a forum that has been overrun with spam – I get this error back. And it won’t even let me close it or make it private. HELP!!!

    Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 268435456 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 32 bytes) in /home/content/p3pnexwpnas02_data01/61/2063961/html/wp-includes/wp-db.php on line 1841

    1. talk to your service provider about increasing memory

    2. do you know how many spam entries you have – eg 100’s 1000’s millions?

    About 150K spam messages. Somehow akismet got turned off, ugh. Back on now. I just want to delete the entire forum
