I am getting a db error when trying to use this

Datenbankfehler in vBulletin 3.8.1:

Invalid SQL:
SELECT u.username AS 'banned', c.username AS 'admin', u.userid AS bannedid, b.adminid AS adminid, bandate, liftdate, reason FROM userban b
LEFT OUTER JOIN user u ON u.userid = b.userid
LEFT OUTER JOIN user c ON c.userid = b.adminid
ORDER BY bandate DESC
LIMIT 0, 25;

MySQL-Fehler : Table 're_forum.userban' doesn't exist

[BamaStangGuy]

Getting a fix uploaded now. I forgot to add the table prefixes for one of the queries.

[BamaStangGuy]

Updated. Please download the new version and upload it. Make sure you check Allow Overwrite.

Great mod. Is there any way to access it besides through community tab and besides through entering the URL?

You can manually add the link wherever you want. If I get sometime I'll include an option to add it to Quick Links. Probably won't be able to get to that till next week though.

[BlackJacket]

Checking this out now. :) I needed a mod like this.

[tafreeh]

can you add one more option there like "claim it" or send appology or something like that.. where user get to email Admin for a request to unbanned him.... or apologize......?

[djbaxter]

How is this different from https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/misc.php?do=producthelp&pid=ms_banned_member_log

[Lone Gunman]

having a couple different options on where to automatically place the link would be nice.... for those of us not smart enough to do all that manually. :)

No extra files need to be uploaded. Mine is a simple product upload.

I can`t set Banned users to view Ban List page. Can you help me show it for Banned users ?

[Lone Gunman]

why would you want to?

[Nadavy]

Yes. It would be very nice if you made it appear in quick links or something for whoever is allowed to view it, because I have a custom community thing, and so it was not added there. It would make it a lot easier for us non-coders :P! Thanks :D

I'll add it into the next release. Sometime next week.

Spammers want to have their names in a searchable spot on your forum and could care less if they are banned. The best thing to do is to purge them from your DB and ban the IP at server level. While the intent of this hack is good, it is a bad idea.

That said, if there were a control where admin could choose which banned users are displayed, it would be a fine hack.

My 2 cents.

nice one :up: . i will install it for sure .

just wondering if u can make this list Search Able and also let admins decide which userids or usergroups can see it .

that would be great .

Thanks

You can always robot.txt the url out or not give access to it for guests.

[BamaStangGuy]

I've started working on a few of the requests here as well as adding a few other additions to it. I'll release an update to address more of the easier ones soon.

You can already decide which ids can and can't see it via the Usergroups field in the options area.

Hi,

I found a small bug in the following plugin: Plug-in Viewable Ban List (3)

if ($vbulletin->options['banlist_template_edit']) {
$template_hook['navbar_community_menu_end'] .= '<td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="misc.php?do=banlist">Ban List</a></td>';
}

should be:

if ($vbulletin->options['banlist_template_edit']) {
$template_hook['navbar_community_menu_end'] .= '<td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="misc.php?do=banlist">PHRASE</a></td>';
}

For all multi language systems PHRASE should be a vbulletin phrase like the product phase "banlist"

You can change the content of the plugin to:

if ($vbulletin->options['banlist_template_edit']) {
$template_hook['navbar_community_menu_end'] .= '<td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="misc.php?do=banlist">'.$vbphrase['banlist'].'</a></td>';
}

to make it working

[jluerken]

For version 1.0.3 the Plug-in Viewable Ban List (3) should look like this:

if ($vbulletin->options['banlist_template_edit_enable'])
{
if ($vbulletin->options['banlist_template_edit'] == 1)
{
$template_hook['navbar_community_menu_end'] .= '<td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="misc.php?do=banlist">'.$vbphrase['banlist'].'</a></td>';
}

if ($vbulletin->options['banlist_template_edit'] == 2)
{
$template_hook['navbar_quick_links_menu_pos1'] .= '<td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="misc.php?do=banlist">'.$vbphrase['banlist'].'</a></td>';
}

if ($vbulletin->options['banlist_template_edit'] == 3)
{
$template_hook['navbar_buttons_left'] .= '<td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="misc.php?do=banlist">'.$vbphrase['banlist'].'</a></td>';
}

if ($vbulletin->options['banlist_template_edit'] == 4)
{
$template_hook['navbar_buttons_right'] .= '<td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="misc.php?do=banlist">'.$vbphrase['banlist'].'</a></td>';
}

}

[BamaStangGuy]

Thanks. I will be releasing an update shortly to address this issue and a few more.

[BamaStangGuy]

Uploaded new files.

Great Mod!

Silly question, how would one make the link in my navbar the same color as the rest of the links so it blends in better?

Sorry about that. I just noticed what I did. Updated package has been uploaded.

Thank you very much! Greatly appreciated

[businessmeet]

I love the idea of this plugin. However, I'd love if someone made it to be based on usergroup(s) too. Example; If running a freelance forum, rather then displaying the "banned users", it would display all users that were placed in the "Scammer" usergroup. And then list all the scammers of the community on that specified page. Kind of like the "Wall of Shame", so others see who to watch out for when making sales / transactions within a freelance community. :)

[profanitytalker]

Wow. Thank you for this. It really looks great.

[Erica1977]

Nice mod anyway for this to work on portal cause if your in your portal vBadvanced and if you click banlist there takes you to a blank page won't show nothing there only works on forum.

[ceedee]

n1 thanks :D
