Hunt out Inactive Users

I made this cause someone asked for it in the requests. I'm not even sure if it counts as a hack (just two lines of code to hack )!

Basically you plop the inactiveusers.php down in your admin dir. It will list all your users, show important info such as When they were last active, when they last posted, when they joined etc.
If they havent posted at all, and have been a user for more than 3 days (you can specify how many days) then it will say they are inactive! And if you click the "YES!" link (under the Inactive? column) it will let you delete the person (it prompts you first).

You can add a link to the admin CP. Here are the 'full' steps on how to install the 'hack':

Step One: open index.php in your admin folder

Find:

PHP Code:

makenavoption("Build Mailing List","email.php?action=genlist"); 


REPLACE WITH:

PHP Code:

makenavoption("Build Mailing List","email.php?action=genlist","<br>");
makenavoption("Find Inactive Users","inactiveusers.php?"); 


Step Two:
Copy inactiveusers.php (attached below) into your admin folder

And you're done! hard, eh ;p
I was going to add the option to specifiy how many users per page since this would be bad for larger forums. But I couldnt figure it out. If anyone wants to give me a hand with that I would appreciate it.

Have fun ^_^ :bunny:

[EDIT: This hack is really old, and currently nothing (other than stuff on the first page) is added in this hack. I'll update this soon with something new for you guys with mods form this thread. Aswell there was a small update on post #29, go here for the update: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...719#post249719 ]

The only thing I can think of is that you have tried to apply that addition to the original hack which removed the

PHP Code:

(($row["lastpost"]==0) 


in order to try and get it to show all inactive users REGARDLESS of thier post count.

When I removed that piece, EVERYONE that has been registered over 1 day showed as inactive, no matter how many days I told it to search for!

So, now I'm just trying to figure out how to code php so that I can get it to search out maybe folks with less than 5 posts and no actvity for 30 days.....

Wish me luck...

I'll poster an answer here if I find one.

Well folks....no joy :ermm:

I researched php coding and tried several adjustments to the equation ==0, I tried <=5 as it should be, but that didn't work!

Can anyone sort this?

It would be so great if you could plug in 30 days and see how many folks are inactive regardless of thier post counts.

If you just remove the post count bit from the code as indicated in an earlier post, everyone EXCEPT for those that registered on the day you run the search show as inactives.

/me begs for help!!!

takara, could you please be kind and let ur know if the attachment in the first post have all the mods listed in the thread?
thanks.

Unfortunatly not. This little thing is just a bunch of sloppy code by me. I didn't think people would actually ever use it. If anyone has a moded version I'll put it in the original thread.

Unfortunatly I no longer maintain a vB and I don't really have much time. I just stoped by for a view. If no one posts an updated version I supose I could take a look through the entire thread and put something together with the modifications.

I was just wondering.
In the screenshot from post 2, and sorry if this already has been mentioned, you can see Rahvin having last post to NEVER, and posts colums says 0, but Redemption 09 also has posts to zero, yet he has last post date, and not never. ERR ?

Thats because I had a testing forum where posts don't increase post count. red hadn't posted anywhere else but that forum. Sorry about that confusion

Has anybody tried this or made any mods that would allow me to use it with VB 3.0 Gold?
