Deleting An Account

[Xarzu]

If a user to the blog decides to delete his/her account. How do I go about providing this functionality to him/her?

On regular wp, I don't think you can. You would have to delete it.

On BuddyPress, I think that may be an option, but if so, I disabled it...

AFAIK this functionality is not in-built into wordpress. You may however search the official plugin directory to check if you find any plugin for the job. :)[U]

I found a plug in but it does not work.

http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/user-self-delete/

This plugin will allow your users to delete their own account without any need for interaction on the administrator's behalf.
When a user wishes to delete their account, they are taken to a confirmation page where they must enter the word "yes" in order for the deletion to take place. Once they type "yes" and press the delete account button, they are redirected to the login page and they no longer exist as a user on your site.

The installation says:

1.Install the plugin either via FTP or Admin backend
1.Activate the plugin
2.Users will now see a "Delete My Account" menu in their admin panel.

Does that mean the dashboard? If so, I did not see this menu in the dashboard of the test user I have created for my wordpress blog.

The author's web site for this plug-in does not offer a way to sign up for their support forum. Maybe there is another better plug-in to use.

If there's something wrong with their registration page (http://www.bluelayermedia.com/forum/...ction=register), perhaps let them know via their contact page (http://www.bluelayermedia.com/contact).
