Hi,

I manage a site with a number of "IT-challenged" users who seem to unregister (i.e. delete) their account at least once a week. I have learnt from other posts and comments that I cannot just have them "unactivate" their accounts in order to be able to reactivate them at a later time. The logical conclusion would then be to prevent users from unregistering in the first place, but to my surprise, I cannot find such a setting in the account module.

Am I overlooking something? If not, can anyone suggest an alternative solution to my problem?

Cheer,
Paul

Try to set the portal User Page to point to a blank page (Login as Admin and goto Admin >>Site Settings; User Page is under Page Management section).  If do this, no one can update profile

or 

Edit (or hack) the the CORE user profile control to hide the Un-Register button.  Add code below to the User.ascx.vb file under folder [dnnroot]/admin/Users

Protected Sub Page_PreRender(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.PreRenderFalse

cmdDelete.Visible =

End

Sub
