ahc Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 I'm surprised this isn't already a feature. Could we possibly have the option to remove members who follow us, similar to how you can remove members you follow in the "Manage Followed Content" page? I'm currently having an issue where an account that doesn't exist is following a member, so whenever that member posts, the background task that's created to send notifications gets "stuck", causing other tasks to build up, and the only way to fix this is to delete that member's content. Not sure if it was an account that was deleted or if it's some sort of bug in Invision's software. Such a quick fix to remove that one follower from following them, but I can't seem to find out anyway to do it via ACP or front-end profile options.

Ryan Ashbrook Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 I would suggest submitting a ticket, actually - when a member is deleted, it should also remove them as a follower. If it is not, then that sounds like a bug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's happened to two of my members already, where someone who was following them was deleted but left a "Guests" account on their follower list causing the task to get stuck due to the member name being null.

Maxxius Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 Is there a way to mass remove everyone's followers? After conversion I fear a backlash from the members about this. Everyone has a lot of friends and now they are getting a lot of emails/notifications. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Note that when you upgrade from 3.x to 4.x the option to convert 3.x friends to the 4.x "followers" concept is not checked by default. I realize it's too late for you to go back in time and leave the default the way it was during the upgrade, but just wanted to make sure others who are considering upgrades are aware, what you are describing isn't what would happen by default.

Speaking of default settings, is there a way to reset notification settings and other setting to default when viewing them on the page as of yet?
