Deactivate Users


Context

Deactivating users on a virtual mentoring platform is a straightforward process that ensures control and security over user accounts. By deactivating a user, you can effectively restrict their access to the platform, preventing them from logging in and participating in mentoring activities. This article will guide you through the step-by-step process of deactivating users, and also shed light on the impact it has on the user's experience when they attempt to log in after deactivation. By understanding how to effectively deactivate users, you can maintain a safe and well-managed virtual mentoring environment.

Once a user is deactivated, their login attempts trigger a notification, informing them about the deactivation status of their account.

However, even when deactivated, the platform retains the user's interactions and data, allowing for potential reactivation if they decide to return to the mentoring program. 

For assistance with concluding a program cycle that entails deactivating or deleting members, we recommend consulting the following article: Ending a Program Cycle.
