Hi boys!
A question: I have registered a new member, which doesn’t need to be a forum member. I will just use him to publish an article on my website and nothing else.
He appears at the bottom of the page as “Newest Members”.
How can I delete him from there?
I went in phpMyAdmin–>sfmembers and deleted him. So technically he’s not a forum member any longer.
But he still appears in “Newest Members”.
How can I remove him from there?
There are no such groups of people as ‘WP’ users and ‘SP’ users. Anyone who registers is a member of your website. They are a user of your website no matter what their role is.
Removing someone from the list is tricky as it happens although not impossible. It would need a manual edit iof data in a table. But they will be shunted along the list until they drop off the end after new members register.
as always, best way to delete users or just about any data really, is through the wp admin interface… users would be deleted from the wp users admin panel…
@mr-papa – Stefano is only talking about deleting them from the new users list we display at the bottom of the forum.
The best way to avoid a user appearing in the forum statistics (which includes the new user list) is to create them into a user group that has the ‘Hide members from user statistics’ option turned on. This will stop them being shown. However, after they have been added and shown, I do not think they will be removed from the new members list if simply moved to such a user group.
I will check the code. If I am wrong, I will post back.
