End-User Options - Self Delete: Allow users to self-delete their account

Self Delete: Allow users to self-delete their account

What is it? This modification allows users to self-delete their account if they have permission. This modification is a port to vB 3.6.8 from a port to vB 3.5.3 of AlphaWolf's 'Self Delete' modification for vB 3.0.3.

New Features: This latest port comes with the following new features:

• Can permit or deny self deletion usage by usergroup
• Can force cool off time period before deletion occurs
• Can send confirmation code to user via PM and/or email
• Can receive reason for deletion via email if provided
• Can send email to user confirming deletion by usergroup
• User can stop deletion if user is in cool off time period

Requirements: vB 3.6.6+ as template hooks are used (only tested on vB 3.6.8)

Does it work on vB 3.5 and vB 3.6? See the requirements.

AngelBlue adds an option: If you wish to place members into a special usergroup instead of removing them, see this post.

Port Information: Ported to vB 3.6.8 with permission via AlphaWolf's post:

The translated Product has no errors. The question is how you imported that file! The file itself is an Product and has to be imported via "Import Product". Probably you thought it's an Language file so you imported that file via "Download / Upload Languages". Isn't it? Just an idea

I added the link to the control panel but i can not figure out how to get the link in the navbar for the cool off period. And I don't see a stop delete link anywhere..

Both actions are displayed while Members being deleted. Usually Admins (for example "You") can't see that, because they are undeletable. Unless you are a Member who is willing to start to self delete itself. Then you can see it

thanks for responding.. I was checking with a test account and did not see the stop delete button, or anything in the nav bar. I think I was reading that I have to add hooks to the template. I don't know how to go about that. I'm searching for info.. but having no luck so far. Could anyone that had to add the hooks explain how they did it? I would really appreciate it.

Getting errors.. I think I need to uninstall this..

Installed in vb 3.7.2

Delete account immediatly, nobody is allowed to even the group permissions are set.

Fixed the missing Hook entry for hourly cron. Own individual cron does not work.
Made my own german phrases because the two ones in this thread didn't work.

Last action is the following issue:

Do you if this hack works with version 3.7.2?
I'm not experienced in installing hacks.
