Difference between Block and Delete in the item management page

[kingsult]

Hi guys,

A question that I always wanted to ask and never dared... 

What is the difference between Blocking and Deleting an ad in the bulk actions item list ?

I have people spamming my site like crazy and I would like to delete their ads and block their account at the same time... Is that what 'block' does ?

Thanks,

No, "delete" will erase the ad for good, "block" just will put it on hold, invisible to anyone but you admin (and just in the Admin Dashboard).

To stop someone from posting ads you have to take other measures (check Settings -> Spams and bots and do a search here in the forum for "spam" to find some more agressive defenses.
