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 ]

takara, good job
not sure, but does it email automatically the user if deleted?
i dont know if this is default in VB...

[Takara]

uuummm, I'm not really sure you know. It uses vB's built in deleting functions. I was going to add an option to be able to email the person, however it required some editing of some additional files. (adding value="$userid" etc to the email forum in the admin CP, so the hack can just easily refrence the page and have it complete its self. a simple thing).

If you still want it I'll go ahead and give you it

Is there any way this can be adapted to show anyone who hasn't visited the board for a specified number of days?

I want to "cull" any users who MAY have posted in the past, but haven't logged into the board for a while.

Any ideas?

[TECK]

i personally think is really important to let the user know he(she) was deleted.

Great hack Takara I've been looking for such hack for a while. Can we put an option to send inactive users for 30 days for example a default e-mail. Just to let them know that we still care about them.....!!! can anyone do that for me please
Installed of course....

This is good.. but it makes it difficult to see exactly WHO you should delete.

Needs to ONLY say "YES" if they have not VISITED the site for the last XX days.

Is that possible ?

[BrAinZ]

Thanks Takara, still needs to be a little easier to use for lazy gits like me though

[BrAinZ]

I've ALMOST done it myself... but whats the difference between "Last Visit" and "Last Activity" ?

This is what I have so far:

Find this...

PHP Code:

if (($row["lastpost"]==0)&&($isinactive>$timeactive)) 


and replace with:

PHP Code:

$inactivedays=$ddate-$row["lastvisit"];
    if (($inactivedays>$timeactive)&&($isinactive>$timeactive)) {
