Yeah, I can see you point on that in general. It does make a mess, but occassionally i have a person who runs into a problem with an account for one reason or another and would really like to try again with their old information (users can get attached to their login stuff and user names... I guess [shrug]). It's difficult to explain more than tha. Thanks for the follow up.]]> Sat, 19 Jun 2004 10:33:21 +0000 https://forums.webwiz.net/delete-single-member_topic10885_post59995.html#59995 <![CDATA[Delete Single Member : Dleteing accounts courses problems,...]]> https://forums.webwiz.net/delete-single-member_topic10885_post59883.html#59883 Author: WebWiz-Bruce

You are much better suspending a users account so that it can no longerbe used, this way they can not re-register using that name and anyposts they have made remain intact with the correct posters name.

DOH! Okay, I missed that part, obviously.  I don't suppose in a future release there could be a delete option add to the member administration list.  Something to reduce the number of steps to delete a single account?  I know, it's a petty little thing but it would be more convenient.

Member accounts can be deleted by editing their profile if you arelogged in as the admin. A checkbox is available at the bottom of theprofile to delete that member.

The main admin and the guest account can not be deleted as these are required for the forum to run.

I did a search for this topic and didn't find it, even though I think I remember reading it somewhere in the past.

How do I delete a single member's account?  It seems this should be a function in the "Membership Admin" page somewhere.  Shouldn't need to use tricks in the "Batch Delete Members" area.
