Description

prior to performing actions on them such as update roles / groups / profile fields / etc.

This is very important to us, as we have thousands of users and it makes it really difficult to browse through dozens of pages everytime we need to find a user.

Also the column showing the users and their info should be sortable. That'll make things easier to find.

Thanks in advance.

I second this as a needed feature, also.

I third this.

I downloaded this module mainly to be able to delete multiple users, but when I installed it and went to the User+ tab (in 4.7.x), I was dumbfounded when presented with an alphabetical listing of user names only. So basically I would have to go through and write down all the usernames I wanted to delete, then go page by page... Talk about tedious.

I would think a duplication of the standard drupal user management page with the multiple sortable columns along with the checkboxes to delete would have been the way to go. This way I could sort on Last Access and delete those who had never logged in.

Would also be nice to see the ability to add other User columns, such as Email, or other personal profile fields.

I agree that this is a very useful feature. If anyone is interested in coding it up, I'll fast-track it to get into 5.x. I'm moving the Version on this to 5.x-1.x-dev since 4.7 will hopefully be disappearing from use soon.

Wouldn't it be possible to basically duplicate the main Drupal user admin page which has more information such as whether a user is active or blocked, last activity, etc, along with the delete checkbox? This way all the necessary information to delete someone based on those criteria is right there.

Version:5.x-1.x-dev» HEAD

I changed the version to HEAD because this first needs to happen using current best practices. I'm not sure if that means leveraging Views Bulk Operations or somehow reusing core's user filtering.

Anyone have ideas or patches on how best to implement this?

+1 on this - I use views bulk operations a lot for advanced user management, if it could be combined with group and role management - the holy grail!!! sorry I don't have skills or time to do this.
