New Thread on User Banning by BOP5
 

The purpose of this mod is to create a new thread in a forum you specify whenever any user is banned.

NEW In Version 1.2 - Set a minimum post count for a user before a "new thread" is created on their banning- this way you don't bother making threads for spammers with just a handful of posts.

New in Version 1.3 - Very minor optimization of code- upgrade optional.

New in 1.4 - {USERID} is now a usable variable in the Ban Reason. Allows for links to the banned user's profile.

The title and message posted is easily customized, as is the username of the thread starter.

This has been tested on vBulletin 3.8.6 and 4.0.8 and should work on all versions of 3.8.x/4.0.x/4.1.x. It may work on earlier versions too.

Read the info txt file in the .zip for full instructions.

See the screenshots for more details.

Please "Mark as Installed" if you use this. :)

I wonder how difficult it would be to edit the code for a monthly list of inactive users and lurkers to be publish as a new thread to a forum?

It would be completely different code...

Thank you works perfectly - already first user got banned :)

Updated to version 1.1- added a drop down selection menu to choose the forum in settings rather than manually entering the forum id.

Otherwise everything else is the same.

Code added thank's to Boofo's suggestion. :up:

Sweet mod!

tagged and thanks

I will install later.... thanks :D

(Do you have any idea on how much drama this will cause? LOL )

INSTALLED & Working

4.1 PL2

cool.. but that would be nice if we can set usergroup setting.. otherwise, no badi wants to create a thread for a user with below 3 post..

I think this was originally intended for creating the threads in a staff only area, more than anything else. ;)

Great mod... Will install it soon I get a chance. Thanks

Setting a minimum post count is a good idea. I'll try to add it in the next update.

Can you make all posts be added to one single thread ? ( specified previously by admin ) instead of making a new thread each time

This way, the thread can be seen in public, and members will know why members are being banned, and they will make sure to avoid that

I love the idea of your mod, but I won't install it as it will be some kinda a spamming mod ( by staff ) in huge forums that got like 15-20 members banned each day

Please update me on this

Thanks

This is an option I plan to add to a future version but I don't have an estimate when that will be right now.

Looked forever for something like this. Thank you for stopping me from having to make it myself.

Is it possible to include link to post that lead to user banning? And if it is profile infraction, to state that it was profile infraction.

Not with this modification.

Go BOP, it's your birthday!

hello i am unable to use this.. i dont know how to edit and and save where thread should be made. kindly help me

In your Admin CP (Administrator Control Panel) go to Settings -> Options -> and scroll down the the mod "New Thread on Banning by BOP5" and double click on it. (It's usually near the bottom of the list when newly installed.)

That will bring up the Mod Settings which will look like this:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/attachmen...8&d=1294981349

You make all your settings here. The forum where to create the new thread you must select from the "New Thread Forum" drop down box. Just click on the little down triangle to see the available forums.

done! thanks for your help, really appriciated

Any way to add a {PROFILE} or something so it also adds a link to the user profile.

I just updated to version 1.4. {USERID} is now something you can use in the Ban Reason option.

Therefore you can make a profile link by using code like this in the ban reason:

change the URL to your forum's URL and you should be all set. That will link the username of the banned user to their profile.

Note: Don't use quotes in the URL tag, I've seen it cause problems.

Great, thanks! :D

No I don't know of any other "quick ban" options... and honestly I'm not sure how this would help you ban someone any quicker- just meant to keep the community or your mods aware of who has been banned.

Please provide this mod for mutilanguage use
Thanks,

Community created translations are encouraged. I am only fluent in English so I can't do any translations myself.

thank you, but I mean you provive support so I can translate to use on my site with both English and my mother tongue Language. I have no problem with translating.
Thank you for the nice mod.
