What happens to posts when a user is deleted?

Archived Alex F. 10 years ago

We have a user in the system that used to be an employee and they have several posts/replies...etc in the system.

What will happen to these if we delete the user?

We wish to do so as that person has now left our company.

When deleting user, system asks if topics and comments should also be delete not. If you answer to not delete them, the author of all these topics and comments will be reassigned to anonymous user.

There is also option to just enter new user details at profile, so system will interpret this profile to be new user but with all saved history of added topics and comments
