Hi,

I would like to know what happens if I delete a user from the user wordpress dashboard.
What happens with his activity, post into the bbpress forum, …?

Thanks

You can choose to add their content to another member or delete it, if the user deletes themselves the content stays and is attributed to anonymous

Thanks for your reply.

Imagine the user can access because he has a available membership access.
At the end of the membership, if I delete the user, all his data disappear.
This means all his interesting posts disappear. What’s pity for all the other members.
And what happens if the user come back several months after with a new available membership access.

Could I simply desactivate a user and not delete it ?

Thanks
Ludovic

You could look at something like this:
