This fixes the site deletion and removing users...

Well done sir.

Preliminary tests on our dev install appear to be successful. After the patch, there seems to be no adverse affect on forum use or site creation. And deletion of a user's site retained forum stats, user group and permissions for the account.

I'll deploy this on our live site and report back if I encounter anything unusual

Thank you.

FYI Only... When one of our deleted users re-registered for our site, they could not join the forums with the sanme username. She was able to register via WP with the previous name (e.g.; userx), but when added to the forums, she became userx_2.

Only after tracking down the old user ID and deleting that row from sfmembers could I change that user's display name via the SF Admin.

Sorry for the late update. I realize all of this may have been resolved in v.5.4, which I am upgrading to now.

I would need Steve to confirm this but I believe this to be the case....

I believe so...  but 5.4 did introduce a different minor bug deleting a user where the row is not removed from the sfmembers table...  so that could get you too... but we can give you a fix for that...
