Deleting Users - up for discussion, my take so far, please pitch in!
Long story, but i need to clean out a number of backend users - cant do this in the dashboard, disabling is not really an option, so need to delve into the database - without a good schema available, it's a bit of a detective story.
My sql script so far (based initially from a previous post on the subject (https://our.umbraco.org/member/28956):
-- step 1, reassign all content back to main user
UPDATE umbracoNode SET nodeUser = 0 WHERE nodeUser > 0
UPDATE cmsDocument SET documentUser = 0 WHERE documentUser > 0
update cmsTask set parentUserId=0 where parentUserId > 0
update cmsTask set userId = 0 where userId > 0
-- step 2, clear down the other users
DELETE FROM umbracoLog WHERE userId > 0
DELETE FROM umbracoUser2App WHERE [user] > 0
DELETE FROM umbracoUser2NodeNotify WHERE userId > 0
DELETE FROM umbracoUser2NodePermission WHERE userId > 0
DELETE FROM umbracoUserLogins WHERE userID > 0
DELETE FROM umbracoUser WHERE id > 0
So that's my starter for 10 - I'm a bit unclear about the cmsTask table (only seen it used for tranaslations), so would be interesting to find out more about that.

Also, if anyone knows/has an Umbraco 7+ schema?

Oh, thank you for this 6 yrs old post. It saved my day trying to solve an odd issue with a 7.15 Umraco installation.
Thanks.
