Can admin delete a member if registration is open?

Sorry, this may be an uneducated question, or perhaps even answered already. I need a quick response to this though.

When I delete a member on admin page, his/her profile still shows on buddypress member page. Is there a way admin could have 100% control, including the ability to remove a member when registration is open to public?

Thanks so much. I have been away for awhile and may sound out of the loop.

When you delete a user completely from WordPress/BuddyPress, *they should* be totally deleted. WPMU has a process for this, and BuddyPress simply just hooks into it and calls the same action.

If you deleted that user only from the blog area (and not the site admin area) that could cause the situation you’re describing?

Where did you delete the user from?

Thanks so much John for responding.

From the dashboard in the admin area of WordPress MU. I go to “users”, then when I get the list of the users, I delete one. Back into Buddypress, I still get the member among the member list.

Still confused

Hmm…

I’ll have to revisit the user delete code, but I’m fairly certain that BuddyPress hooks into that WPMU function and clears out all the additional member info.

Are you using BP1.0.1?

Yes. WPMU latest version and BP 1.0.1

Hi John:

My fault. Sorry.

This time, I deleted the user account under “site admin” and it worked.

It erased the user account in BP.

All Cool. Thanks so much.

Awesome. No sweat. Sometimes the WordPress back-end can be a little confusing at first.
