  4. 11.x core/modules/user/user.module \user_cancel()

Cancel a user account.

Since the user cancellation process needs to be run in a batch, either Form API will invoke it, or batch_process() needs to be invoked after calling this function and should define the path to redirect to.

Parameters

$edit: An array of submitted form values.

$uid: The user ID of the user account to cancel.

$method: The account cancellation method to use.
