Non-activated / deactivated users still show in public users page

Contribute Bug

You mean inactive users:

  • You can’t mention them because they aren’t active.
  • You can’t search for them because they aren’t active.

This may be a bug but I don’t think it is:

  • Inactive users are still users in the user table.
  • There is a site setting to allow viewing inactive accounts - off by default but it may be enabled here:
    show inactive accounts
    I wonder if meta.discourse.org shows inactive customer accounts because of hosting customers?
  • There is a setting to delete inactive users if they needed to be removed - the default is two years:
    clean up inactive users after days.
