Hi guys, I have had a member accidently delete their account. I don't know how or why this has happened, is it a recent update?
I don't want profiles to be able to be deleted, I am sure I had a setting that made sure this couldn't happen.
Is there a way I can restore the members profile, and is there a way I can turn off the ability for members to delete their profile. I don't want them to be able to do this.

>> How to disable delete account button for users?
@tutrix Thanks mate..... this was a silly addition!! I have had a couple of people lose their accounts due to this. I dont let people delete posts after 8 mins, never mins delete their account! Frustrating
@percysgrowroom The same happened to us, I found out people were deleting accounts when they were just playing with their profile and just clicked on "Delete" not expecting it would not give it at least one more prompt. It asks once, "Are you sure?" or something like that, and Boom!
Thankfully, yeah, there's a hook like they explained above to disable that. I'm not sure why, but it looks like this was enabled a long time ago, but only recently it has become a problem. I have a feeling that this was either not working before or was not visible or something because didn't have issues before.
