If they have forgotten their password they can get another using Forgot Password:

Yes, uncheck Allow Profile Deletion and if a user wants to leave but you want to keep their forum/group posts change their name, email address and password.

I don't think Power users can delete their main profile, only the profiles they have created.

Typo in jrProfile 1.6.1

Using Jamroom

In the Help for Quota Limit Type in quota.php
I think that should be "the number of items allowed"

Yes, just like Michael says above.

You need to put that into your module init function, not into the jrFeed module init function.

In my opinion the biggest issue would be that you are trawling a user's content to see what you don't want deleted after they have deleted (or requested to delete) their content. If ever you have to explain that it won't be an easy fix however you manage it.

If you want to check the content of every account you would have to restore it and look through their content, just like if you had to look through their content before deleting it. It takes a few seconds to restore an account, visit the profile tab and move it to a private quota.

But if you want to make your users wait until you approve their request to delete their account, hey, maybe that works for you. Change the account delete button to a custom module button which adds the delete to the pending queue - just guessing but I doubt it's that difficult to do. Seems weird but not difficult.

Then allowing them to delete their account, you get notified so you can restore it from the recycle bin and take back their content would seem to work best for you. Try Paul's suggestion, very easy to do.

How would you handle their user experience at the point when they click to leave?

"Sorry to hear that you are leaving us. Please wait for Admin approval."

In my opinion if you are going to allow a user to click the trash button they do need to see the expected outcome of their action.

Maybe deleting the account isn't what you want to allow. How about moving to a quota of fully private profiles, but then you would want to tell them that, not that they have deleted their account when they haven't really.

Rather than admin approval you could just check your recycle bin and restore any profiles to restore the content you want to keep (change the owner of).
