Is it possible to log a particular member out of the forum without logging on as him/her and then logging back out?

Even if you logged in as them and logged out that wouldn't 'log out' the user as it's tied to the browser, you'd physically need to be at their computer to log them off...

I guess you could go to your cookie settings in vbulletin options and change the name of your cookie but that would make every user need to re-log in.

Searching for something else I just happened to notice this mod: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=163327&highlight=admin

I haven't use it, but maybe it's what you want. In any case the code to log out a user seems to be in there.

Very cool mod! Thanks for the info kh99. I wonder if it will work on version 3.8.6?

Well, looking at the end of the thread in the mod area it does look like there were problems with later vB versions, but it looks like someone might have posted a fix. But someone also posted that it doesn't work if the user has "remember me" checked, so I don't know.
