this question is almost the same with my older post (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=288629)
because, in my older post is only asking HOW to add usergroup to member
that in userrank stars will not appear to there profiles,
so that other members will not recognize the new added usergroup for it.



NOW FOR THIS THREAD
instead of banning a member
they will add additional usergroup for it
called WHITE SCREEN

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2012/10/50.jpg

so if that member will login in the site
"" white screen page with error message will show only ""

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2012/10/51.jpg



this is nice technique of admin,
member's profile is still good and fine,
but deep inside is that member is "" CAN'T LOG IN ""

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2012/10/52.jpg

nice right? member will not get mad,
only thingking is slow connection of internet
but the truth is admin set a additional usergroup "white screen"



why i'm asking this is all i want to know
is how to do that usergroup of white screen page..?
pls help.




thanks in advance

I think you would just need a plugin that checks for the usergroup and redirects to an error page. There is a mod called "Miserable Users" which does something similar - if a user is a member of that group (even if it's just a secondary group), then they have lots of delays and errors when the try to use the site, so that they might believe it is server or network problems. You may just want to use that mod, or if you relaly want a white page you might be able to modify that mod (or at least see how it's done).
