I'm about to go read through this thread in case I missed it, but as of today this is NOT working on my forum. See screenshots below.

My guess is that one user in the screenshot was already registered with a different IP address. When the other user registered, it was with a different IP address and with cleared cookies. When someone is disallowed to register and they really want to register, they think outside of the box.

It's the same user that just registered another account. Same registered IP address for both accounts.

I'm trying to come up with a way to get the ban functionality to apply to both the Banned and Suspended usergroups. I've thought about promoting them into a secondary "Sanctioned" usergroup and using that to detect folks but then I'd have to manually remove folks from the sanctioned usergroup.

Any suggestions? TIA!

I would have to investigate this issue personally. If you would like me to, contact me through PM.

I'm really not sure what you mean by "get the ban functionality to apply to both the Banned and Suspended usergroups." Could you elaborate?

Hmm... Someone gave my modification a 1/5... Wonder why they disliked this modification so much. Maybe they just gave me the lowest rating because I had the highest rated modification with over 450 installs. Oh well.

The board I manage has issues with Banned and Suspended members creating additional accounts to get around their banishment. I'd like to be able to have suspended members' additional accounts auto-banned just like it does for banned members.

Thanks!

thanks for your help with the reporting, the 15+ posts required was killing it for some reason. Once I disabled it, reporting worked right away!

I'm wondering if this would work in its place, Cyb - Advanced Permissions Based on Post Count. Anyone using both mods?

Roger that. I'll be continuing work on it after I'm better. I'm in a poor state of mind right now because there has been a tragedy in my family.

Good to hear. I haven't used that modification in combination with my modification, but who knows, it might be able to work. Generally, Cyb modifications are well-coded and flexible. The primary coder behind those modifications is an insane coder. I'd love to have his mad skills.


Just to recap, I'll be away for a bit of time while I go to my father's wake and funeral. During the next week, I will probably not be online at all, so everyone will have to be patient with me (especially with questions). If you're having any problems with my modification, try to look through this thread because there's a great deal of information and it will probably let you know what to do.

hmmm its only me?

This mod worked fine for me until i made the VB update to version: 3.8.3 now no messages appearing any more.

Yes i deleted the relevant groups in "Ignored Usergroups" and marked No in the "Ignore Child Accounts" by my test

Any Ideas on that before i try to make just a new fresh install of this very superb Mod :up:

Edit: after a reinstall of this Mod still no chance to get it running correct.

cheers, Mark
