Banned Members?
 

Hello

When you ban a member they can still see parts of my board but is
there anyway to have the banned message block them such as when you
close your board everyone gets to see that message "we will be back shortly"

But have the banned message displayed like the closed board one?

So it blocks them out of the whole place?

I think it would be a great idea because at the moment when my members are
banned they can still look around different parts until they click on a link or something
then they get that message.

I would have thought this might have already been in vb as a default :(

Thank you for any help :)

Just set all permissions for the banned usergroup to no....

Hi,

Everything is already set to no :)

The only time that the message would display to a banned member is
if you closed new registrations.

If you have "Can View Forum" set to no and they can still see the forum then you have something very wrong with your board....

If you made a new group, than a setting is enable for them to view the forum.

Once you have banned a member, they should only see.

You have been banned for the following reason:
Date Un-lifted: Never

Oh I just logged in with one of my other computer as a banned member and just noticed that it does work :D

Thanks for your help everyone :)
