#45 Auto Archiving Hubs Feature
Opened by duffy. Modified

Feature Overview

This feature depends on the manual archiving feature (issue 44) being complete before it can be implemented.

The purpose of this feature is to make sure we don't have stale & inactive hubs all over the place. It's a bit of an automated tidy-up of inactive hubs. In a nutshell, hubs that have been inactive for at least 6 months are auto-archived at month 7.

There are a couple of components to this feature:

  • A notification to the group owners / admins that the hub is going to be archived
  • A hub sticky visible to group owners/admins that the hub is going to be archived

Notification to Admins

This notification will appear in the personal notification streams for group admins when the hub has had no activity in 6 months. Clicking on the button to cancel archival will give the hub another 6 month period after which the same notification / auto-archive action will be triggered.

If the admin does nothing, the hub will be auto-archived at month 7 of inactivity. The admin can always reactivate the hub if it does get auto-archived (via the hub admin menu.)

Hub Sticky

This sticky card will be visible to hub group owners/admins starting at 6 months of inactivity on the hub. It will remain until month 7 of inactivity, at which point the hub will be auto-archived.
