Setting time of inactivity and of being excluded from the group

User story:

Complexity: not simple but does not seem very difficult either

Outcomes (or what needs to be done to move forward): a bit more discussion to define the options, and would be nice to have a sketch for the UI

I think I heard this from different groups… There are two different things to consider:

  • time set for the person to be marked as inactive
  • time set for the person to be excluded from the group, the period of inactivity

Again from Robin Foods:

and one more little thing: maybe u can forward this - after 60days people get kicked out - a setting where we can change that would be nice or extend it to 120 days or so… lots of people want to join after some time and get demotivated because they were kicked

It seems to be a recurring issue, not only for them. I have experienced in my folkkök group as well people becoming inactive but that is basically because of a summer break with no activities happening and I’m pretty sure they would still like to be involved.

On my other group Solikyl we’ve experienced the issue of people keeping themselves active in the group by logging in, but we would like a setting to define them inactive by participating or not in activities (ok, that’s probably another related feature).

I marked as ready for development since it looks quite straightforward. In the group settings we can define:

  • member of the group marked as inactive after x days (default 30)
  • member of the group automatically excluded from the group after being marked as inactive for x days (default 120)
