User Attrition #1820
Reference in New Issue
Block a user
Delete Branch "%!s()"
Deleting a branch is permanent. Although the deleted branch may continue to exist for a short time before it actually gets removed, it CANNOT be undone in most cases. Continue?
Originally created by @mmitchen on GitHub (Aug 10, 2020).
I'd like the ability to manage/transfer a user's ownership of documents before removing the user from BookStack.
Based on the assumption that a user's documents will be removed once they are deleted from BookStack (I haven't been able to confirm this is true), this will allow me to clean up a user's documents and make sure they have a new owner before I remove the user.
Apologies if this is the wrong approach for this type of question/feature request but I wasn't able to find what I was looking for online otherwise.

Hi @mmitchen,
Thanks for your request. Currently BookStack simply infers the "Creator" as the "Owner".
I've opened #2246 to propose adding "Owners" officially to BookStack and have considered your request to assign a new owner within that proposal.
Just a note, A user's content will not be removed when they are deleted. They are left in the system to be used by those that have permission to view them.

Thanks for the follow up Dan and for submitting the enhancement suggestion for consideration. Thanks also for confirming user content remains if a user is deleted. That was biggest concern and part of the reason I wanted to have the ability to change the owner. I still think it would be good to be able to change owner but it's less of a priority for me with your confirmation. Thanks!
