I couldn't find the suggestion forum that once existed here (at least I recall there was one at one time) so I decided to post it here.

I have been looking for two simple modifications (at least simple to those who know what they are doing).


Delete User but Keep Username or Delete all Posts
In a nutshell I am looking for a mod so that when you delete a user either their posts keep their username instead of becoming guest or all their posts are deleted with their account/profile.

Easy Large Scale User Profile Deletion
I am simply looking for a mod that allows a admin to do mass deletion of user profiles like one can with threads on the forums. I like to delete zero posters after a certain amount of time and I have 900 members at the moment with at least 600 of them being zero posters.


I do believe these modifications would be extremely handy not just to me but many other admins on various vB boards out there and save us all a lot of time.

I would be great appreciative and thankful if anyone could construct such modifications.

1. That is the way it works on my site. I have deleted several users and their name stays on the post, although it is not clickable (no members.php page for them) and under "posts" it says N/A. If you want to delete all the posts prior to deleting their account, I believe that is available in the drop-down for the user in the Admin CP.

2. Also available under Users > Prune or Move. Select the criteria (for 0 posts, I put in 1 post cuz it's a less than thing) and then hit Select and a list of users comes up. Then you have the chance to unclick any of them and then on the bottom the option to Delete them or Move them to another usergroup.

What version vB are you using? I am pretty sure these options were available when I was still using 3.0.12 a couple of months ago.

I am using the latest stable version. Thanks for all your help it seems I should really look further into vBulletins standard functions before requesting a mod. This has really helped me out, thanks. :D
