Feature #30998
closedAdd an rake task to prune registered users after a certain number of days
0%
Description
Hello,
Unfortunately I'm not enough skilled in ruby to propose a patch.
Like many other people, I'm affected by spammers that half-register themselves but do not complete inscriptions due their fake emails. So I constantly have a pile of half-registered users that pollute my database.
It could be nice if there was an option to automatically delete accounts that were not successfully registered after a given amount of time (example, 1 day by default or something like that).
What do you think?

For those who are interested, I usually process this easily by:
delete from users where status = 2;
Not sure if it's really safe while redmine is running though.

How about adding a rake task redmine:users:prune
to remove users who have not completed their registration?
Redmine already has a similarly named rake task redmine:attachments:prune
(source:tags/4.2.0/lib/tasks/redmine.rake#L20). The rake task deletes files that have been uploaded but not attached to an issue or wiki page.

Thank you for the patch.
I have changed the patch to remove users registered more than 7 days ago. I think one day is too short.
Suppose that you set "Self-registration" to "manual account activation" and run the rake task every day. When the admin receives a notification that a user has registered, the admin must activate the user within one day or the user will be deleted. All users who register after Friday afternoon may be deleted by Monday morning.

The rake task should accept the number of days as parameter in order to make this configurable. Also, the default value should be at least 7 days or even 30 days. One day is too less.
