we had that problem too. Turned out it was because only their primary group is changed (we have a temp fan usergroup), so, if they had a subgroup that let them in more places, they could still post where we didn't want them to.

dunno if it helps or not, but I guess what I'm getting at is, check for subgroups on that person

lots of issues with this hack. Essentially, all we are using it for now is to keep track of how many points a user has :(

Version 1.5 has been released, check main post to download it. It covers a range of bug fixes and new features which is covering mainly what everyone has asked for, sorry for the delay on this update, been up to my neck working on rpg inferno. But here it is, check the main post to see what's new, enjoy all :)

Trying to apply the 1.5 update...


results in

Error


SQL-query+:+


ALTER TABLE warning_options ADD `banned_usergroup_id` int( 15 ) NOT NULL default '0' ADD `protected_usergroups` varchar( 255 ) NOT NULL default ''


MySQL said:

#1064 - You have an error in your SQL syntax near 'ADD++`protected_usergroups` varchar( 255++)++NOT++NULL default++''' at line 1

*Updates first post*

Missed a comma out, sorry about that, use this:

ALTER TABLE warning_options ADD `banned_usergroup_id` int( 15 ) NOT NULL default '0', ADD `protected_usergroups` varchar( 255 ) NOT NULL default ''

Thanks Zero.. went smooth now. I really appreciate the work.

Not a problem, glad i could help ^_^. Enjoy,

Great Job !!

But one question.

At my Forum is Warn Level 10 = 1 Day Bann

If I warn a user and he has reach Level 10/10 he was banned for 1 day.
But if I warn him into this bantime the Level does not go for example to 15/10 etc. So if he reach for example 20/10 he banned 2 Days. Ist there a way to do this.

now is it so, if i warn a user and he reach level 10/10 an i ban him into the Bantime again and again the hack makes for the Same juser more and more reason.
but i wish, that he add the secound bann tho the first so he has 2 Day Ban instead og 1.

Sorry for bad English :)

The system was set up so the warning level cannot go over the limit, so if a user has 9/10 and you warn them 3 points, it will only go to 10/10 (Otherwise that would be a bug)

What your asking could be done but then others may not want as say you give them 12/10 and they get banned for 17 days where normall people get 15/16 days banned. I feel it would be unfair aspecially when it may be done by accident from a mod because they didn't know of this feature therefor that user is banned longer than they should be.

However, in version 2 there will be admin controllable ban length's, and upon been warned if they are to be banned for exceeding the warning limit then a moderator may choose a suitable ban time length.

Hope that will be sufficient for your needs, i feel it would be better :)

If I was to set an IF condition, that displays to one user gorup only - does this include the sub-usergroups a user may be member of?

Say if there main one is 6, but are also part of 10. And I set if condition bbusergroup == 10 - will they get to see the warning links?

This post has a way to show the links only to people who can moderate :)
