    User Deletion

    With the new User Management, are we supposed to be able to delete users? If so, where is it in the UI? (Umbraco 7.7.2 and 7.7.8)

    Hi John,

    No, I don't believe we are able to delete users. This is because of the impact it has on the audit table and associated content items, such as who created them, last updated them etc. You can disable users and then hide them.

    In the umbracoSettings.config file edit this line:

    <hideDisabledUsersInBackoffice>false</hideDisabledUsersInBackoffice>
    

    and set it to true to hide disabled users.

    Thanks,

    Nik

    I have this set to true in v7.8.1 and the disabled users are still visible and it's proving an issue at the moment as in a list of 130 users only a relatively small percentage are still active.

    In what version does this work for you?

    I am in version 7.11.2. I was able to hide Disabled users by clicking the STATUS drop-down in the upper right corner. You will have a choice of Active, Disabled or Locked Out. If none of the status' are checked you will see all of the users.

    NOTE: If you click Active, you will see all Active users. But, if you leave this page and return you will have to select a status type again.

    Hope this helps!
