Users Cleanup
 

3.8 version repost. The same code.

This mod helps to automatically delete user account upon custom-defined rules. For example, you can delete members, who didn't comfirmed emails after 3 days, delete members, who have zero posts and didn't visited your forum for a long time, and so on.

Any conditions can be defined! Cleanup can be done in both automatic and manual mode.

Difference between built-in vB user pruner:

1. Completely automated.
2. Comfotable management of multiple rules.
3. More flexible prune criterias.

Some stat for my forum (only zero-posts users were cleared):

- last user ID 50652
- total users left 19359

60% effectivity!!!

Installation:

Upload files and import product XML.

Configuration:

• Enter ACP and go to Users -> Cleanup.
• Create cleanup rules you needs, and save in inactive state.
• Test you rules. Do manual cleanup, if you wish.
  
• Activate rules (enable automatic cleanup), if you are satisfied with testing results.

Warning! Don't activate cleanup rules without testing! Don't forget to backup your forum database!

PS. Product is marked as beta, because i can't test all possible rules combinations. But those been used - works fine. If you have strange results duging testing, don't hesitate to post screenshot with your rule, and explain what is wrong.

Was NOT tested with 3.6.x & 3.7.x, but probably works.

Could be very useful for one of my sites.

Thank you.

Tagged for future use, thanks for the hard work!

Worked for me... did exactly what it said it would do.

I only used the test and manual delete function....

Maybe later, I'll try the cron enabled function.

In any case - thanks for the handy utility!

it works

That'S exatly what i've searched for. Thanks.

But I gat a SQL/database-error with it when selecting "User has never posted (also count in social groups and blogs)" and test this option.


With my little SQL knowlegde and some Try and Error this function_users_cleanup.php (attachment) is working i think. Anyway please chekc my changes if there are any security mistakes.

Is there a chance to include custom profilefields in the options?

Sorry for my bad english :)

Thanks for your help. Could you tell full text of SQL error?

May be, problem can be with scopes, but "never posted" condition works at my forum. Can't accept your patch into mainline, because you removed table prefix - that will not be compatible with all installations. But i'll try to do somerthing, if you tell me more info about error. Please, tell me also your SQL version & exact selections set in your cleanup rule, that cause problems.
