Another ACP suggestion

[Morrigan]

I know/hope the ACP is going to be re-vamped but I thought I'd put this out there for you as I just ran into this problem a few minutes ago.

I think the ACP should have a search option for min AND max posts not just one.
I also think there should be a way to mass edit members.

Examples for both I need to find members between certain post ranks (500-1000 in this case) and mass change them to a new group I had just made. One good thing is that I didn't have many members in that range but the bad thing is I would have either had to mysql it or (like I did) manually edit each account.

Just thought I'd put that out there.

You have a lot of great ideas and I agree with this one as well.

[Goldview]

Great idea.

Hey guys ive been wondering im also an IPS customer and i saw that u r in the group: Customers on this board.

Im still in the group members: Shouldn't i also be in the group customers ?

Do you have the same email address for the forum as you do for the client area?

[Goldview]

Yes. im using the same emailaddress for the client area as for the forum.

Goldview:

Do you need technical support?

You can obtain support via the client area, or you can try to obtain peer-to-peer support at IPS Resources.

Regarding the original topic:
This sounds like a fantastic idea! As others have said, some of your ideas are fantastic.

the problem with this is the way it currently works is run a query and grabs all the members that match but then to view one it loads alot more data so to be able to mass edit either alot of data would need to be added and tbh the real estate is more of a problem than the load. Its possible to make a secondary function to the normal search which would return everything as a list but then you would probably need some sort of panel at the top of the results where you could choose some options like e.g. reset members posts, change to group, ban, force revalidation, delete etc. The next question is which default options should be displayed there? then i suppose it should be hookable so you can add your own options but then there's the fact that a wrong submit could leave you in a very sticky situation... e.g. accidently change all members to admin grp, etc. Its a good idea just implementing might not be so easy.

Submit a ticket via the client center. We can fix it up for you.

I know you might be able to do it with an sql command at least I think so. I do not think it would take that much work to add it as there is a mass prune members.

[Morrigan]

Well the other problem is that if you want to add another usergroup for post counts you can neither search for them nor mass edit those users either. There are such things as confirmation screens and yes a panel at the top.

[Amy T]

Yep I am in an agreement with you (Morrigan).

I agree with the mass edit members.
