What is a "Cache Rebuilder?'

Where do you find this function?

How do you delete HH and tourney info from just one poker site?

thanks in advance...StrikingEagle

The cache rebuilder feature hasn't been implemented in HM/postgreSQL yet. When you purge a HH's from your DB it deletes that HH - so you will not be able to replay it nor view/save/export it. BUT it doesn't remove the player stats for that HH. cache rebuilder was meant to achieve that I think

Read this & look at the bottom pic
FAQ - Hold'em Manager Poker Tracking Software :: Observed Hand History Configuration
you can purge ALL (or part) of the HH's played by you at a particular site by...

UNCHECKING: "Do not delete hand histories played by:" &...
CHECKING THE RIGHT HAND RADIO BUTTON: Where it says 'Poker Sites' & selecting the site you want to delete HH's for
Make sure you have all the options in that screen set correctly though & I strongly advise you to make sure you have HH's saved for all the stuff you want to keep first in case you make an error. If you haven't got an HH archive then make one by exporting your HH's first

thanks for speedy reply.

i will review that link and be careful (back-up) when purging hands.

If you mean backing up your DB. OK
But also export your HH's first & back THEM up. The raw HH's are the critical thing to keep copies of

& notes - I'd be dead if I lost my notes - more important to me than the stats

The original/archived hands are the first things I save, before I do all of these steps - FAQ - Hold'em Manager Poker Tracking Software :: Reinstalling on a new PC - Backup Tips

Hi Fozzy

Only slightly off-topic...

Is deleting a bunch of HH's in CASH > hands EXACTLY the same as purging the same bunch of HH's ?

Yeah its identical to this Purge Method FAQ - Hold'em Manager Poker Tracking Software :: Purge Hands

There is another purge method
FAQ - Hold'em Manager Poker Tracking Software :: Purge Hands from Database
That does not delete the hand completely; it just deletes the hand history details but keeps the stats in the database. Once you purge a hand, you cannot view the hand history or view it in the Replayer. The main advantage to purging is it frees up disk space without losing stats.
