Email inactive users to bring them back to the site

There should be a column in the user table which shows when the users were last logged in. Best case would be to mail all people manually or automatically who were not logged in the last xx days.

We do log the last activity of when a user last visited any WordPress page in the BuddyPress activity (wp_bp_activity) table. Do a query for SELECT user_id,date_recorded FROM wp_bp_activity WHERE component = 'members' AND type = 'last_activity'.

Hope that works for your needs. Otherwise, you will need to either write a plugin for this or use an existing plugin that is available in the wp.org plugins repository.

At the moment, this functionality should be left to a plugin. However, maybe we could consider this in a future release. I've renamed this ticket to reflect this.

We're closing this ticket because it has not received any contribution or comments for at least two years. We have decided that it is better to close tickets that are good ideas, which have not gotten (or are unlikely to get) contributions, rather than keep things open indefinitely. This will help us share a more realistic roadmap for BuddyPress with you.

Everyone very much appreciates the time and effort that you spent sharing your idea with us. On behalf of the entire BuddyPress team, thank you.

If you feel strongly that this enhancement should still be added to BuddyPress, and you are able to contribute effort towards it, we encourage you to re-open the ticket, or start a discussion about it in our Slack channel. Please consider that time has proven that good ideas without contributions do not get built.
