Is there any way to have rt-shredder delete users that aren’t associated with any tickets -and- aren’t privileged?
Some of my privileged users might not be associated with a ticket at any given time, but I still don’t want them deleted.

Users plugin of the shredder.
Is there a “suggestion box” for new features? This seems like a pretty glaring oversight. Surely mine can’t be the only organization with privileged users who aren’t always attached to tickets.
I have about 30 privileged users, and maybe 500 other unprivileged actual users that have requests in the system, and a total of 4,130 records in my “Users” table. Probably 3,000 of them are users that were auto-created when RT received SPAM.
We’re auto-deleting tickets after 5 years of inactivity, but it seems that in the current implementation, auto-created SPAM users can never be automatically deleted.

Unless the shredder could kill the user along with the ticket when
it’s the only ticket that user has ever made;
and ideally also when the user is unprivileged/auto-created.

You’re right, see your pain. I think member_of option in the Users
plugin can help with this issue. Try attached patch, documentation
included.On Fri, Jul 24, 2009 at 3:24 AM, Tim Gustafsontjg@soe.ucsc.edu wrote:
