I have been messing around with users and members, and now I want to delete some of the users I have been creating. (Notice: Not members, but users)
So I select the Users tab at the bottom left corner of the Umbraco interface, find the user I want to delete, right-click... and then I only have the option of disabling the user?
Of course, I can just disable the users access to Umbraco, but what if I really want to get rid of a user.
Is it by design, to keep the relations between pages and the user who edited/created them, that I can't delete a user?
Do I need to delete the user in SQL to get completely rid of a user?
Thanks in advance! :)

You cannot delete a user bcause of forign keys in the database where every page a user has created has a id as a forign key to the user to identify which user has created the page. If you want to delete the user you have to do SQL hacks. Thomas
