Administrative and Maintenance Tools - Move inactive users to new usergroup

This modification is no longer available or supported.

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 once per day as part of the daily update cron job.



History:

v3.7.001 : First Release for vB 3.7.

Are there any plans for it to work with secondary user groups?

Nope.

what are most of you setting as defaults?

Thanks!

This is going to help me as I choose to have my 'inactive' group setup with this mod and then the 'mass pm' sent to these folks to prompt them to participate or at least visit the site and hope to get a few clicks on ads

Ran last night and identified my inactive users! Worked as advertised!

Thanks Paul!

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. No members have been moved. Any idea what's wrong?

As the text says ;

Paul,

Thanks for the reply, much appreciated. I waiting for the daily update cron job to run, which was set for 20:00 tonight. Nothing appears to have happened; no inactive members have been moved to the specified Group!

In the Cron job, it says the File is ./includes/cron/inactiveusers.php. Is this correct?

[Paul M]

No idea what that is, but its nothing to do with this mod. This does not have an associated cron of its own - like I said above, it taps into the standard daily update cron.
