Effects of Deleting Pilots?

[freshJet]

What actually happens if you delete a pilot? Does it mess anything up? I haven't removed any with hours yet in case it does something...

[mark1million]

When you delete a pilot it removes all their flights / hours pireps etc

So does it affect the statistics etc?

[mark1million]

Yes i think it does, it will effect the amount of pireps, I have been pondering this for a while now, to delete or just to lock out, i decided to make use of the groups and after the pre defined inactivity the pilots account gets locked out so they cant login or file a pirep.

That was all the flights are preserved and should the pilot wish to come back they can pick up from where they left off.

[freshJet]

Yes how do I edit the groups? In the Admin Panel?

You need to be using the beta for the groups.

Have a look here that should help.

I am...

If you edit the pilot, there's the option for their group.

There are still issues with it

In reality, you never use a beta as a full working site, just as a test to find the bugs and report them to the coders.

Something is wrong. I want inactive pilots to be able to access the site, but they still get the annoying message...

From local.config.php:

Config::Set('PILOT_STATUS_TYPES', array(

Looking at that code they should not be getting any message as that is blank.

[freshJet]

Exactly...

[mark1million]

What message are they getting?

[freshJet]

The default contact HR crap...

[mark1million]

Have you edit the code for pilots auth?

Simpilot posted a code update for inactive pilots, just check that file as thats where its coming from.

Also make sure the cache is clean. It maybe that the settings were cached, and phpvms is using the cached version.

And how would one do that?

I believe that pressing Ctrl + F5 on the intended page will abandon all cached content and just retrieve all content from the servers again.

Im not 100% certain that it will clear the cache though

[mark1million]

Your cache folder is in the core, or just go to the admin section and clear the cache from there.
