Hide/Remove Member from Member List

[dillonk47polik]

I have two test accounts on my forum for, well, testing. Since these accounts are essentially me and aren't actual other members, I would like to hide or remove them from the member list and not allow them to show up. Would this possible?

I should think you should be able to just add this to the bottom of your style sheet.


.info.last .user-1{display:none;

}

Of course you need to get the user id as the one I have in there is the admin one.

Sorry for the late reply.

I put that at the end of my style sheet and changed the user id number, but the member still appears on the member page.

Sorry, I somehow missed your reply so sorry about the delay. Not sure if you figured this out yet but you'll need to add this to your style sheet as well:

/*remove from member list*/
#member-2 {display:none!important;
}

Since the admin is member-1 (also .user-1), I assume your other account is member-2 but if you go to your members list and right click the name you want to vanish and select view element  you should see in the tr tag what member number that is. It should look like this but I'm using my admin account as an example.


<tr id="member-1" class="member item first last clickable" data-ip="1.2.3.4">
<td class="checkbox clickable"><input type="checkbox" class="list-item-checkbox"></td>
<td class="name target"><a href="/user/1" style="color: #f090f0;" class="user-link user-1 group-1" title="xx">Tumbleweed</a></td>


But in order to get that whole row to disappear, you have to use member and not user like we did to make that name vanish in the info center.

Thanks Tumbleweed! That worked like a charm.

You're welcome and again, sorry I missed your reply. I think I got distracted after viewing my tagged notification list.

Hi Tumbleweed 

I am wondering if this code would serve the following purpose:

I'm looking for a way to solve the problem of having loads of 'inactive members names' on the member list, but don't want to 'ban or delete' members who were previously very active. I would like them to have the option to be able to come back and have their old account reinstated, rather than have to create a new account.

I know I can 'disable' accounts, but that would still leave their names on the list.

Looking at your code, it would appear that it's possible to 'add or remove' names from it as and when required.- am I correct ?
Also, does this code 'hide' or 'remove' their name from the member list and does it reflect in the 'total member count' in the info center ? It would look odd if the total member count did not correspond to the actual number of names showing in the member list.

What would show on their mini profile in their posts ?  What would happen in regard to their 'Main' profile ?

Hope I've managed to explain clearly what I want here.

it would still reflect in the info center ( I know cause I use this on my site ) all it does is that it hides the name from the member list.

Thanks Mattyboo 
I might put it on anyway, at least it will keep the member list looking tidy.

I have just got around to putting this code on and it's worked great - my thanks to Tumbleweed 

I do have another question - do I need to put all that code in for every member I want to hide from the member list
or is there a way to edit the code that is already there, eg users 2,3,4, and members 2,3,4, ?

Hi

apols for necrobump.

but where exactly would i place this code?
I'm currently looking at /admin/themes/1/css
is that correct? and would I just append the code to the bottom of the style sheet?

thanks

apols for the necro

think I've worked it out now, thanks.
