    We are getting tons of spam members joining and every morning I have to go in an delete these. If I miss a couple of days then there is a back log of these to delete.

    Going through one at a time to delete them is too time consuming.

    I know that I can filter and select all of these that I want to delete but I do not see any way to bulk delete them.

    Is there a way in v.4 to do this? Is there info that I have missed on spam prevention?

    Bulk user deletion has been added to 4.2.x branch. You can upgrade to 4.2.2 to get this solved.

    When I log in to my amember it does not give me the option for an upgrade. I know that it showed up for the last upgrade. Am I going about it the wrong way? I thought it should be in my dashboard.

    OK. Manual procedure:
    - backup your aMember database and files
    - download v 4.2.2 from members area
    - unpack and upload it OVER YOUR existing aMember installation, many files will be replaced - agree to replace;
    - login into aMember CP admin area - you will be asked to run database upgrade, and once it is done, your upgrade is finished.

    I have "unloaded" the zip file. I am about to load the new files. Does it make you go in to the setup folder and upload all of those files individually and then go in to the application folder and upload all of those files one at a time, etc? I am use to uploading the whole folder.

    Or am I doing something wrong?
