Inactive User Deleter

How well this listing is tuned to rank in WordPress.org search, on the factors an owner controls. Not popularity, optimization.

Directory rank vs rivals

wp.org popularity rank over time · higher is better · when a rival's line climbs above yours, they've overtaken you

How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Share of active installs on each version of this plugin · 88% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Refined from the date this plugin crossed into its current band.

No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A small install base leaves thin data to model from.

   I was so excited to find this plugin! But maybe its not working with my version of wordpress? (latest on this date)Whichever filter I set, it returns no users. Whereas I’m certain I have several thousand fake user accounts…. I’ll be very happy to change my review if it works!

   Hmm, it is useful but not working the way I think it is supposed to.5000 record(s) are shown, I click mark all, I click delete all marked users -> 985 users are being deleted. Still better than doing it without the plugin but why cant I delete all (~20k) users being found with the flags I selected, or at lest the 5000 I had marked?Anyhow, give it a try maybe it works for you.Also, it is free so big thanks to the creator.

   The plugin is great.I installed it to delete all my inactive users (users who have not logged in over 12 months).But in order to find those users I have to install the plugin WP Last Login.But this plugin only counts all logins after the day of the installation.So it does not really make sense to find the “sleeping Users”.Is there another, better way to find all the inactive users?Thanks for your help.

   No filters work with my WP and you dont have to show all 16k users on the confirmation page. As well would be cool to delete all 16k at once, but the plugin cant delete more than 2.8k at once… But thx, took me just 10 mins to remove 16k.

   The Inactive User Deleter plugin for WordPress helped me purge the userlist of one of my websites. I was able to weed out the spammers and clean up my database at the same time. Thank you very much! A note to those who plan to download it: please read and understand the options carefully. In the options, “AND” is different from “OR” — AND means all situations should be present, or means one of these situations. If you’re looking to save users with published posts or approved comments, it would help to sort the list based on posts or comments to the users listed according to the number of posts or comments they made.
