Hi there,

I’m trying penpot selfhosted and I would like to disable or delete a user account. Is there a way to do this or even an admin interface (haven’t found it if any) ?

Thanks in advance.

Hello @Erwyn

Penpot doesn’t have a global admin interface to remove/disable user accounts. If you are managing your own instance you could do it directly on sql updating the table “profile”
