HELP Fighting Spam Users in Evolution

One of the biggest flaws of evolution has always been a user management not suited for sites with hundreds of users.
The users search is very limited (see also https://github.com/modxcms/evolution/issues/333) and are not mass/bulk editing features to manage groups and users.

I have sites with 20,000 users, which 3/4 are spam users and really dont know how to fix it.
We see every day on this forum, that any attempt to restrict the registration is useless.

I currently use my Users Dashboard Widget (http://www.tattoocms.it/extras/plugins/welcomelastwebusersbox-dashboard-widget.html) to manually delete users every day ...and one by one
Certainly is not the ideal solution.

I'm tryng to create a little module to extend user search and quickly delete spam users (based on siteserach module), but my php/mysql knowledge i very limited (near zero) and don't know how add a mass/bulk delete funcion.

Someone else is interested to this topic (has problems with spam users) and wants to help me to finish the module?

You could use the multiTV crud module for that. I have written a user management page based on that module for a customer. It could manage webuser information together with the extended webloginpe information.

The multiTV crud module is based on jquery datatable and it is quite easy to extend with custom processors and custom buttons too. With a custom button a bulk delete based on a search result could be done.

Thanks for suggestion Jako, was what I was "trying" to do in the other thread:
