I got the same error but quickly figuered out the problem.
The author has used the short hand <? instead of <?php in the beginning of the PHP files.

This mode is not supported by many installations, and one should always use <?php when programming in PHP.

So, to fix your problem. Go in to all PHP-files in this modification and change the first line to read
<?php
instead of
<?

It seems like the author has ommited the ?> at the end of the files as well. This is poor practise.

Otherwise, top ace! :)

This is debatable. There are a good number of reasons for omitting it:
- Prevents excess white space at end of file; this can interfere with sending headers etc and cause xhtml validation errors.
- php.net dosn't use closing delimiters in its code eg http://www.php.net/source.php?url=/include/prepend.inc
- The closing tag is in fact optional.

Anyway, fixed file uploaded for those that dont have short tags enabled.

@caltek: what versions of php/mysql are you running? 32bit or 64 bit os?

thanks for the update. This does indeed enhance the IP banning functionality in vbulletin and could be useful to have as default. I have many banned IPs over the years, now I have no clue why any of them were banned.

Thats pretty much why i wrote this mod. It also allows me to give all admins ip ban privilages without them having access to the other options.

For anyone who was wondering; this does seem to work fine on vb 3.8.2 as i've just updated my own board to that version.

installed on 3.82

when I add an ip, it says added successfully, & the row is saved to the DB

BUT when I list banned ips, the list is blank.

not sure what is wrong

You checked the db and the ip is in there?

did you install the list of ip bans provided with the mod?

This is all I did

-------
Installation
Backup db.
Upload files from zip.
Import product.
Refresh admincp.
-------

yes, the ips are in the DB. I have 3 rows in the ipban table. I've attached an example. image 1 shows the row int he DB. image 2 is what I get when I click List "IP Bans"

Does this work on 3.8.2

When I ban a IP with an CIDR, it shows as 0.0.0.0 and /8 for example, instead of what I entered... In the case shown in the attached zip file, I was banning 194.8.0.0/8 which is spammer trying to spam my site... However, it all shows as 0.0.0.0 as you will see in the attachment...

What can I do about it, or is there a reason it wouldn't show the IP info?

Thanks,
kapii
