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.

Sorry, as posted earlier, I do not plan to change this in any way atm, it was written a long time ago for internal use on CF. I've simply posted it up as someone was looking for something similar.

Maybe I have a cron problem then as its not working but I haven't noticed a problem before.

No problem Paul, it is anyway a great mod and I used for sure

@jellybaby - I really cannot say, and unless you plan to send me acp access there is nothing I can look at. You obviously have a problem, but I cannot imagine what. It's a single SQL statement, pretty hard to break.

Same here

Ahh I think I have found the problem - the product installed as automatically disabled for some reason - have enabled and will try now!

Edit: Yes that works now! Thanks

Simple question before I install this mod

I don't want to move then to another group I want the accounts deleted. Is it possible?

Uuups, true!

Edit: only the user title remain the same of the primary group (Registered Users)
Edit2: showing after updating user title.

But a question, have to update user title everytime when a user jump from a usergroup to other?

Oh B*****, so it does, fixed.

If you downloaded it prior to this post, make sure you enable it in the product manager.

Correct, that's by design - on our forum we don't want any visible change for inactive users.
