How to delete the user of the forum ip board

Invision Power Board — perhaps, one of the best means for representation of the website as forum. This engine was written in such languages as PHP and Javascript. Removal of the user of your forum can be executed in several actions.

It is required to you

  • Access to the admin panel of the forum IP Board.

Instruction

1. First of all, you need to get access to so-called "admin panel". Without it it will be impossible to perform this operation. To get to the administrator's panel, it is necessary to pass to the website and at the end of its name to add some expression. Click in an address bar of your browser, put the cursor in a line end and add/admin/index.php.

2. Click the ENTER key to load the new page. Here you will need to enter the login and the password which you specified during registration procedure. Then find the section Users & Groups in the general menu, select it and click by the Delete User(s) button.

3. On the loaded page it is necessary to give a mark opposite to the Where the member has less than posts point and to specify digit 1. You should not note and fill out all other points, leave them without change. Click Prune Members, and before you there will be a list of users whose number of messages is equal to 0. You can delete such unnecessary users with clicking only of one Complete Member Pruning button.

4. Above given in the way it is possible to delete a large number of users whose activity at a forum always remains under deep doubt for time. However this way has also reefs. For example, all remote users disappear from the database, and rooms at which they went in the same base remain available. In most cases it does not influence the speed of loading of the website.

5. If users whom it is necessary can be deleted, not so much, to use in a manual way: pass to the section Users & Groups, select necessary (having marked out them the mouse) and to press the Delete button. Removed forumites will not leave a "empty" cell in the database as last case.
