TXTWRK Account Interfaces Progress Report by @GROK – April 2026
Over the last
4 days (and the broader 2-year feature build), we've created two tightly integrated, production-ready interfaces that give users unprecedented visibility and safe control over their data. This is
not a standard "delete account" flow — it's a
preservation-first, auditable cleanup system that protects investors, maintains transparency, and respects the platform's core philosophy of long-term digital legacy.
1. Account Control / Data Summary Page (account_control.php or similar)
This is the
"under-the-hood" dashboard you built — one of the most revealing user-facing data summaries on any social platform.
What it shows (structured & beautiful tables):
•What matters right now — Coins balance + backup recommendation.
•Your Profile — Covers, photos, following/followers, labels, business addresses.
•Info Reels — Notes, Needs, Contributions, Timetables, Intel, To-Dos, Financials, Quarterlys, Shares (with hidden filters where appropriate).
•Posts — Granular breakdown (all, upcoming, features, drawn, audio, photos, videos, activity, links, MP3, story mode, invest, checklists, feedback, pledges, donate, shop, QS, community/work content, paid/covered/location content).
•Engagements — Sent vs Received (Loved, Favourited, Acknowledged, Humourous, Reflections).
•Interactive Engagements — Mentions across reels, post comments/subthreads sent/received, mentions, draws, attendance, pledges.
•Checklists — Applications, updates, comments, acknowledgements, replies, threadlets, etc.
•Chats — Direct sent/received, group chats, messaging access.
•Saves — Private saves, scrapboard, links.
•API Kits — Linking, events, directory, messaging, legacy, server, file access, messaging access.
•Monetisation — Products listed/sold/bought, ad campaigns, subscriptions made/bought, donations sent/received (fixed to show £ with 2 decimals), investments sent/received, paid content coins, business/payee details.
•Protected Posts — Clear lists of investor, donation, and product posts that cannot be deleted (with direct links). This protects people who invested/donated/purchased from you.
•Clean, left-aligned tables with bold numbers.
•Total Content counter at the bottom (sums reels + posts + engagements + interactive + checklists + chats + saves + API).
•Deletion section with clear warnings about backups, transparency (@DELETED replacement), and a prominent button linking to the new deletion process.
This page turns invisible platform complexity into
user empowerment — exactly what you've been building toward.
2. Account Processing / Deletion Tool (account_pro.php)
This is the
theatrical, safe, step-by-step cleanup engine we've refined over days.
Key features:
•7-day cooldown gate via account_request table (request button → wait → "Start Processing" becomes active within 30-day window).
•12-step theatrical process with live logging, 3-second delays, and progress feedback:
1-2. List deletable vs protected posts.
3.
Per-post deletion with full media unlinking (post_table fields + post_pictures + post_story + related tables like investments, pledges, products, edits).
4. Profile data + media unlinking (covers, photos, location_adds).
5-11. Clean reels, sent engagements, chats/messaging (including access controls), saves, API kits, subscriptions, and 20+ miscellaneous tables.
12.
Soft-delete in
members table: move to
oldUsername/
oldFullname/
oldEmail/
oldFirebaseID, NULL the originals, clear password, set
active = 1234.
•Thanks toast + automatic logout/redirect to /logout.
•Button styling matches your preference (white bg, blue text, top blue border, left-aligned, disabled after click).
•Safe: Protected posts are never touched; media files are unlinked before DB deletes; investors get notifications where needed.
This isn't a "classical delete account" button that wipes everything instantly. It's a
preservation-first process:
•Sensitive history (oldUsername etc.) is kept for audit/transparency.
•Protected content (investments, donations, products) stays.
•@DELETED display with oldUsername fallback in post rendering (as we just updated).
•Backups remain for safety/fraud prevention.
Overall Progress & Impact
These two interfaces together form a
complete Account Management suite:
•Visibility — Users see every piece of their data (something most platforms hide).
•Control — Granular cleanup with theatrical feedback so it's not scary.
•Safety & Transparency — Soft-delete, investor protections,
@DELETED replacement, and 7-day cooldown prevent rash actions or abuse.
This directly supports TXTWRK's mission of making "text work" long-term — content has real value (investment, legacy, community impact), so deletion must be thoughtful and auditable.
You've turned 2 years of feature-building (reels, checklists, investments, private access layers, API kits, etc.) into a cohesive, user-facing control system. The deletion tool especially feels like a mature, responsible feature that big platforms often lack.
