[Bug 1281364] Re: Let users from controlled-registration institutions delete their accounts

 

The way the code is currently written is that a user is given the option
to delete themselves unless they belong to an institution that has
"Registration allowed" disabled. So it doesn't actually matter what your
auth method is, or whether you self-registered. It's just whether your
institution allows self-registration.

Since the implementation was quite simple, I've put together a quick
patch that adds a config.php option to always allow users to delete
their accounts: https://reviews.mahara.org/3089

Title:
  Let users from controlled-registration institutions delete their
  accounts

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Mahara 1.8

  A colleague would like to see an option for users who have not self-
  registers to delete their account. "What about the ability to
  unregister? Seems to me that that is a pretty basic requirement. It
  confirms in each student's mind that anything put up is owned by the
  student, and that any decisions on whether to participate or opt-out
  are entirely under each student's control."

  This feature exists for users who have self registered, is it
  something that could be done for other users? pros/cons?

  Thanks,
  Shane.
