Move inactive users to separate usergroup · **Released**: 09-08-2007

This modification is no longer available or supported.

This is another simple modification written ages ago for my forum, I saw a request for something similar the other day so here is what I use.

If a member has not visited the forum for a defined number of days (180 by default) then they will be moved from their existing usergroup to another usergroup (this can be any existing usergroup, however, you should really create a new 'Inactive users' group - esp if you use the auto-restore option).

Only members of a defined list of usergroups are checked for inactivity.

If a member of the inactive usergroup returns to the forum, and auto-restore is enabled, they are automatically restored to another defined usergroup (by default this is usergroup 2, Registered Users).

Note: The move of inactive users is done as part of the hourly update cron job.

History:

v1.01 : First Release for vB 3.6.
v1.02 : Automatic restore made optional.

How do they get moved across - it doesnt seem to be moving anyone across on my forum?

Great idea.. in fact I once asked for something similar and this will do the job. I just installed it. I assume there will be a mass move when it hits for the first time? How long until that happens?

The moves are done as part of the hourly update cron job. I've added that to the description so it's clear.

I clicked on it so it did that and its still not showing for some reason that they have moved across, I have checked that I have the settings right and they are.

If it's set-up correctly then it's pretty hard for it not to work, what settings do you have ?

I have set up which groups to check for inactive users, and a new group to move inactive users to. I clicked on the hourly update cron job and it doesnt seem to have done anything

Paul M · #18 09-09-2007, 08:38 PM

I meant what settings exactly do you have. Which cron job exactly did you run ?

There is just no way I can see this would not do anything if everything is set-up correctly. There is really nothing in it to break.

jellybaby · #19 09-09-2007, 08:40 PM

The hourly clean-up, was that the one you meant?

Paul M · #20 09-09-2007, 08:43 PM

Yes.
