Banned Users List
 

NOTE: This mod is marked "unsupported", but I'll try my best (as time permits) to help those who have marked as installed.



What is this!?
This modification will allow you show a page containing all of your banned users. I suppose you could think of this as a public "Wall of Shame", per say. ;)


Check the screenshots to see exactly what is displayed.


Current Version
1.0.2



Features flagged for future version(s):

• Looking for suggestions

Will this work on x.x.x ??
Unless otherwise stated, this will work on all 3.8 versions. I've not tested this on anything earlier than 3.8.



Sounds cool. How do I install?

1. Upload everything inside the "upload" directory of the zip file to your forums.
   
   • banned.php => To your FORUM ROOT directory
   • functions_bannedusers_list.php => To your FORUM_ROOT/includes directory
2. Login to your Admin Control Panel and go to "Plugins & Products" -> "Manage products"
   
   • Click on "Add/Import product"
   • Browse for "product-bannedusers.xml" (included in the zip file), and click "Import"
   • If upgrading from an older version, then set "Allow Overwrite" to "Yes".
3. In your admin control panel go to vBulletin Options => Banned Users List
   
   • Edit the Usergroups that you do not want to show the banned members list to.
4. Optional: Only if the auto template injection does not work, as the template hooks were not found.
   
   • In the "navbar" template, find:
     
     • HTML Code:

       ---

       $template_hook[navbar_quick_links_menu_pos3]

       ---

   • Below it, add:
     
     • HTML Code:

       ---

       <if condition="$vboptions['bannedusers_enabled'] AND $vboptions['bannedusers_hidefrom'] AND !is_member_of($bbuserinfo, $vbptions['bannedusers_hidefrom'])"><tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="./banned.php?$session[sessionurl]">$vbphrase[bannedusers_text]</a></td></tr></if>

       ---

Upgrade

1. Login to your Admin Control Panel
2. Go to "Plugins & Products" -> "Manage products"
3. Click on "Add/Import product"
4. Browse for "product-bannedusers.xml" (included in the zip file)
5. Set "Allow Overwrite" to "Yes", and click "Import"

Specifically from 1.0.0 to 1.0.1 and later:

• If you are using the auto template edit in 1.0.1, find and remove the following from your navbar template:
  
  
  HTML Code:

  ---

  <if condition="$vboptions[bannedusers_enabled]"><td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="./banned.php?$session[sessionurl]">$vbphrase[bannedusers_text]</a></td></if>

  ---

• If you do not want auto template edits, replace the above code in the navbar template with:
  
  
  HTML Code:

  ---

  <if condition="$vboptions['bannedusers_enabled'] AND $vboptions['bannedusers_hidefrom'] AND !is_member_of($bbuserinfo, $vbptions['bannedusers_hidefrom'])"><tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="./banned.php?$session[sessionurl]">$vbphrase[bannedusers_text]</a></td></tr></if>

  ---

Nice work, thank you!

Installed

This would be very dangerous for Webmasters in Europe. European Law is very restrictive about privacy Rights.

that made me laugh

Is it possible to add an IP column?:)

Mmk, well, then all I can say is don't use it. :)

Maybe in the next version, only displayed for Admin's/Mod's

? Add a condition under your Terms of Service. Problem fixed :up:

Thanks.

i added this on my Quick Links :D Pretty cool

Added and working , nice n easy.............many thanks.

Thanks,will try this one

How can we order the list by date and hide the ban reason for members please?

*click* Installed works great and is perfect for some things the team is dealing with at the moment. Thanks

All my banned are spammers.
If I had to ban so many members I think I'd close my board.

But this might be useful to display members from a specific usergroup.

A new version is in the works :) No ETA atm though.

Does anyone know how to fix for vbadvanced? On my front page it goes to wrogn url? instead of "forums/banned.php" it just goes to "banned.php"?

Thanks
Christopher

Installed - Can you add group view permissions in future update.

Works fine on my VB Advanced portal. check url settings in vbadvanced settings pages

I can't get my registered users to be able to see it, I have checked all settings everywhere and don't see how to get registered users to see the banned list. I logged in under my regular account on my board and it says I don't have permission to view the page.

Sorry I figured this out right after I posted this. You have to enter the usergroups that are able to see the list.

Nice thanks

nice mod ,tnx

I do not know what's happening, but what you tests after all members and usergrupe can see this"Banned Users List" has provided a solution

Hey,

I was wondering whether the ''Banned by'' column is removable?

Thanks.

Installed this but no matter what I do it dose not show the list to only administrators. I want it to show to admins only. I tried putting the usergroup ids in the box, I tried it without any IDs in the box and so on. It still shows to everyone except unregistered or not logged in guests.

Hmm, been a while ;)

I'll check out the code and may backport some changes I've made to the vB4 version.

I love this, the only think that I do not like too much is the fact that the "Banned Users" link shows up for everybody in the Quick Links.

How would I make it so it only shows up for those that have permissions to see it?

Nice...
