No in both cases, this is the vb4 version. Look in my profile for the older vb38 version.

Ok, thanks. :)

Ok, thanks. :) It would be great if it could because there's no real penalty for being moved to an inactive user group.

That will never happen, its not intended as some sort of punishment. :)

Do I need to change vBulletin's default value of Inactive user which is 30 days to match this mod?

(incidentally, can anyone point me to vBulletin's settings for Inactive user ? I can't find it when I need it)

thanks a lot for this cool mod Paul...MAI :)

Ok, understood but can anyone suggest a benefit to moving an inactive user to a different group?

easier when sending mass email to a usergroup ?

Yep, thats one reason. Its also easier to see who is inactive.

Nope, there is no relation between the two.

thanks

I can't find vB's options when I need it :-(

found it here
Forums Home Page Options

Active Members Time Cut-Off
Enter a number of days here that represents a threshold for 'active' members. If a user has visited the board within the past number of days you specify, they are considered 'active'.

removed .bad English explanation
sorry

Sorry, but I really dont understand what your trying to tell me.

first of all
sorry for my bad English Paul


after the installation i filled in the form for the right user groups in the cp
so normal users should be moved after 30 days of not posting
to a different user group that group is called lurkers at my forum

its working ,but it keeps changing back the lurkers to the normal user groups within 10 seconds ,its not working how it should be ,its like a loop here

ill ad a screenshot
perhaps u can see something wrong?
thank you

Its because you have set the Inactive Group to "Lurkers" as well - and turned on the Inactive Restore option, so its restoring people in the Lurkers group when they visit. Disable the Inactive Restore.

tried everything ,changed all ,but no luck at all
its not working here at my board
i think i have to uninstall :(
anyway tnx

Installed, looking forward to see it in action.. Guess I'll have to wait for it to run. :-)

Sorry, but Im afraid you are doing something wrong. It will work on any forum.

In fact you already said it was working, with one problem, which I told you was an error in your settings.

So far it's moved a lot of users to the Lurkers group, but only one to the inactive group.

I checked the Lurkers group, and a few there haven't been seen or heard from since 2008, yet they weren't moved to the inactive group.

Should I give it another 24 hours?

Another 24 hours is unlikely to change anything, I suggest you check how you have it set-up.

installed & nominated

Default set-up, 180 and 90.. gonna fiddle around with it and see what happens.

I was referring more to your usergroup settings.

Lurkers are processed first, so unless you include the lurkers group in your Inactive Checked Groups, then users will get moved to it first, and stay there.

Paul its working now
some English words are difficult for me
i was misunderstanding u
want to thank you *nominated*

Good to hear. :D

Is creating a thread considered satisfying post status as far as moving users back to their restore groups?

Yes.

Paul...I love this, but I seem to be having one persistent issue even though I've tried all the suggestions listed in the thread.

When a user is moved from our Super Registered (UG #14) to Lurker (UG #15), when they come back, they are getting the "Banned" message and an Admin has to manually move them. Any additional tricks I can try to remedy this?

THANX!!

What group are you restoring them to ?

UG #2...lol Ok...I see the problem. Jeez...the blonde is really showing!

:D .

Installed and shall comment futher when fully tested

Cheers

I have tried this and it just maybe me and old age kicking in !!!

But i set this up and it moved normal registered users to my members usergroup once they posted

I have read the instructions but seem to have got lost and any help in setting this up would be great

I have NGG Members who i want to place to normal users if they do not post within 3 days

So i set this to :

Inactive Cutoff Point - set this to 3 days
Inactive Group - Normal users
Inactive Checked Groups - The couple i selected
Inactive Restore - Restore to usergroup specified below>
Inactive Restore Group - NGG member

Is this correct ?

So i want my NGG members tobe moved and moved back if they post after the 3 days

Cheers for any advice and/or help

You seem to have completely mis-read something.

Check the definitions in the main post :)

Inactive Members
If a member has not visited the forum for a defined number of days.

Lurkers
If a member has not posted on the forum for a defined number of days

Seems to me you are talking about moving Lurkers, so you need to turn off the Inactive settings, and use the Lurker settings.

Did as you said, But can you let me know if the settings i posted are correct if i do this for the lurkers ?

I did this and the same happens, it moved a community member to an NGG member when thay posted

The settings you posted make no mention of "community" members.

Please post a screenshot of them.

This is how i have it set up

Those are Inactive Settings, please read what I said before (post #154).

So if i use the same settings but for Lurkers, It will work ?

Cheers for the help mate

Yes, remember to disable the inactive function.
