              How does the keyword matching work?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

              The plugin searches for your keyword in multiple user fields: username, email, display name, and nickname. Partial matches are included.<\/p><\/dd>\n

              Can I recover deleted users?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

              No, this is a permanent deletion. Always maintain regular backups of your database.<\/p><\/dd>\n

              What's the recommended batch size?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

              For most sites, 100-500 users per batch works well. Larger sites may benefit from smaller batches (50-100).<\/p><\/dd>\n

              Does this work with multisite installations?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

              Yes, but users will only be deleted from the current site in the network.<\/p><\/dd>\n\n<\/dl>\n\n\n
