Deleting Users
-
When I deleted an account from WP (in this case your support account) it also removed it from the forum (which is good).
But instead of replacing the old username with something generic like “guest” or “anonymous”, it sort of broke the forum “appearance” by just deleting it.

Might not hurt to consider adding a default username to keep the appearance.
Perhaps add it to settings where the site owner can define the name and image they want for deleted accounts?Also, on some forums, if you delete a user it actually leaves the username and image alone, but disables the profile and links.
This also makes it nice int he DB because these posts still have a userid attached to them for easy searching, and (in some cases) when the users return, a quick easy id replace to re associate their posts to their new accounts.
Just some options to handle this.
