Administrative and Maintenance Tools - Un-Activated User Management 3.1

this was a fantastic vb2 hack and was made with blood, sweat and tears by Amy, she deserves all the credit for doing a fantastic job and then giving me permission to release this. If you install this you should show your gratitude in her direction as without her it wouldn't have been possible.


if you got a big board you can't live without this, it stops the crap from piling up.

anything messes up, i can't take responsibility i'm afraid so back up before you try it.

2. Emails users after 5 days and lets them know their account will be deleted if they do not activate.

3. Emails users after 8 days with a final warning.

4. Deletes un-activated members after 10 days.

It still does exactly the same but this time for vb3

oh yeah, it emails you to tell you who was deleted, emailed so you're always informed.


and now like the days of our youth where everything was free and our mum would have dinner on the table for us, you're done.

Maybe you can change the "manageActivation Complete" text? It's a bit a strange start of the daily report mail
I first thought there was a phrase missing. Maybe you can phrase it?

A bug: it deletes members who set a new email address and don't confirm it by reactivating their account (after one day already).

I installed this last night, and I use 3.6.2 and it works perfect.
Thank you.

I read all the posts on this, and seen there was some questions by others that wasn't really answered correctly.

This is what I did.

1) upload manageActivation.php to the forums/includes/cron folder

2) in my control panel I added this product product-uam3_sabret00the.xml

3) I setup a cron job, "varname" was an issue, see my pic


4) turn on this plugin, see pic


I hope this helps

This might be a stupid question but .... :

I have around 10 000 UAEC, Will this hack "once installed" consider them as new accounts and does this :

1. Emails users after 3 days and reminds them to activate their accounts.

2. Emails users after 5 days and lets them know their account will be deleted if they do not activate.

3. Emails users after 8 days with a final warning.

4. Deletes un-activated members after 10 days

OR : since it's been more than 10 days that the accounts were created, it will Delete them automatically ?

[dilbert]

I had far less than you, about 100, and they were all deleted when I installed it.
