Countdown For Banned Users

Countdown timer for banned users will show what time left to finish user's ban on postbit or somewhere else in user's message area.

Is there any mod like this, or is it possible to have one soon?

I would prefer in the page which indicates the reason of the ban. :) (the page seeing by the user banned). ;)

This is a good new, now 2 coders will look at it :p

In my forum there is only 1 usergroup for banned users and i use a hack that shows banned users in a list. Permanently banned users and the users banned for a while appear in this list together, but in messages (Postbit) both users appear as "Banned User". If in postbit or anywhere else in the message area shows the lift date of the ban, then it will be very understandable for users, admins and mods.

If this is not so hard to do, i will be glad to see this hack completed as soon as possible. :up:

If all you want to do is display the time remaining on the ban whenever the user tries to log on, then...

1). Open 'includes/functions.php'
2). Find eval(standard_error(fetch_error('nopermission_bann ed', $reason['reason'], $date)));
3). ABOVE it insert:

PHP Code:


		
			
// start code 'ban time'



        if ($date != $vbphrase['never'])

        {

            $remain = $reason['liftdate'] - TIMENOW;

            $remain_days = floor($remain / 86400);

            $remain_hours = ceil(($remain - ($remain_days * 86400)) / 3600);

            if ($remain_hours == 24)

            {

                $remain_days += 1;

                $remain_hours = 0;

            }



            if ($remain_days <= 0)

            {

                $timeremaining = "<i>Will be lifted soon.</i>";

            }

            else

            {

                if ($remain_days == 1)

                {

                    $day_word = $vbphrase['day'];

                }

                else

                {

                    $day_word = $vbphrase['days'];

                }

                if ($remain_hours == 1)

                {

                    $hour_word = $vbphrase['hour'];

                }

                else

                {

                    $hour_word = $vbphrase['hours'];

                }



                $timeremaining = "$remain_days $day_word, $remain_hours $hour_word";

            }



            $date .= "<br />Time Remaining: $timeremaining";

        }



// end code 'ban time'

Cheers,
David.

FullyTested, thanks for your interest but i'm not talking about this. I need a countdown which will show in postbit under the nick name or under the age, and only unbanned users will see this countdown.

Hi Breathex,

I've attached a simple mod to this post.
It will display the time remaining on a ban inside the postbit.
All members will see this.

Edit...
For the actual code, please see:

Install Instructions:

1). Import the product via the Admin CP
2). Open the 'postbit' and 'postbit_legacy' templates and
Find:

Code:

<if condition="$post['usertitle']"><div class="smallfont">$post[usertitle]</div></if>

BELOW it insert:

Code:

<!-- start code 'sbt' -->

<if condition="$post['ban_time_remaining']"><div class="smallfont">$post[ban_time_remaining]</div></if>

<!-- end code 'sbt' -->

3). Done.

I hope this is what you are looking for.
David.

Hi David,

David, i have a small but important problem with the codes. After i imported the product, it writes "Ban is Permanent!" on some of my members postbits but they are not banned. I'll be glad if u find a solution for this problem.

Breathex, that means you have a corrupt userban table with userids of previously banned users that were somehow not deleted.

How many such users do you have?
The easiest fix would be to delete them from the userban table.

Yes. Re-import the attached revised product.
Don't forget to select 'Allow Overwrite'.
This version also checks to see if the poster usergroupid is in a banned group.

This should solve the problem.

I have a forum of 11K+ members and over 3,000 are banned :P. We are a trading site. I think this would be great to have. Are all the bugs worked out bud?

FullyTested

09-25-2007 05:57 AM

Well it's a simple hack. No bugs that I know of.
The above issue is not really a bug so much as an issue.
This hack does not modify anything so you have nothing to lose by trying it.
Just don't forget to follow the little instruction a few posts back on adding a variable to your postbit template.

This one is cool and works perfect, also translating to own language is very simple. Thanks for all David.
