User Deleted

Hello everybody. When a user posts something, will the post be available even after the user deletes his profile from the community?

Fabio PinnaΒ a user can only deactivate the community profile but not delete it AFAIK.

When a user account is deactivated then all previous user community content (posts/comments) remain visible to other community users.

Note: user can manually (1 by 1) delete all his posts/comments before deactivating the community profile and then deactivate the profile - in this case these posts/comments will be deleted and obviously they wont be visible to other users.

However when a user asks the Admin to delete the account and Admin will delete it from wp-admin>users directory then all user data will be permanently deleted from your the Wordpress db and it wont be available anymore (wont exist).
