I have alot of users stuck in "awaiting activation". But I changed settings upon registering to automated activation. I have alot of users in the "awaiting activation" group. I do I move all of them at once to the regular member group?
Get the gid for groups "awaiting activation" and whatever your target group.
Assuming your database is not somehow changed - with mysql or phpmyadmin - use your mybb database. Then run:
UPDATE mybb_users
SET usergroup
= target-group-gid
WHERE usergroup
= awaiting-activation-gid ;
I highly recommend a straight select query first, as a sanity check:
SELECT * FROM mybb_users
WHERE usergroup
= gid-awaiting-activation;
Also highly recommend you backup your database before running any update queries.
