SecondSight Posted December 24, 2016 Share Posted December 24, 2016 Hello ! Today, I wanted to delete very old members belonging to a specific group and who had no content at all. So I made a search and it returned 6 pages : Then, I saw that there was no checkbox to deleted all members in one click... So I told myself I had to delete each member at a time... I tried deleting one member and I got this : What I think about this option : Anyway, I went ahead and, after deleting the member, I saw that I was back to... the members' page. Moreover, I had to do the whole process again... So is there another and fast way to remove these members ? Same question for validating members : Managing members on IP Board is becoming really difficult... unless I'm not doing it the right way ? Thank you. acarlsson, OptimusBain and MEVi 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should click in the PRUNE MEMBERS FOUND link. Jim M and Nathan Explosion 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SecondSight Posted December 27, 2016 Author Share Posted December 27, 2016 Thank you ! I had not noticed this link... What about the "Keep member's name" option ? What do you think of it ? Thank you ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathan Explosion Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 He probably thinks the same as the person from IPS who agreed it was not a logical step and mentioned that he would bring it up internally for discussion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackflash Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 (edited) Suppose you have 1 page of 24 members to validate and you wish to validate only 22 of them - how do you do that on one page like 3.4 allows? In 3.4, the validating page has a checkbox next to each member. So I can check the ones that I wish to mass validate while not allowing others. Is this possible in 4.1 ? ? ?

-martin- Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 Is the "PRUNE MEMBERS FOUND link" still available in version 4.5? I cannot find it. Or are there any other possibilities to bulk remove members? Thanks, Martin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

acarlsson Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 Just that this thread exists is a sign that it's done the wrong way. Furthermore, I can't find any "PRUNE MEMBERS" link in my Members page. I have some hundred spammers that I want to ban and delete. It's quite tedious to do this manually.... 😖 CoffeeCake and OptimusBain 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I couldn't search for just "Banned", do you have a suggestion on what to search for? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acarlsson Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 I serached for the letter "a" and found 2 pages of accounts, all banned. I counted them to 37. I want to delete them, and pressed the Prune Members Found, and got this: "This action will remove 2 members from the community completely. Are you sure you wish to proceed? This action cannot be undone! It is recommended that you perform a backup of your database before running this tool, as a precautionary measure." How can 37 found members be 2? <rant> Really, why is this so hard? What happened to the checkboxes we where used to in v3? And all other normal databases. It's a shame really. And why do I have to count the total myself? Shouldn't it just say somewhere "37 records found" or something!? </rant> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nathan Explosion Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 (edited) Log a ticket with support, as it should be presenting the correct number of found members based on the filtered search.
