Changing Usergroup ID

Can someone please tell me how I would go about changing the Usergroupid for the "Banned by Moderators" usergroupid from 9 to 8? Mine is set at nine and it is supposed to be set at 8 for default vbulletin, isn't it?

[sql]
UPDATE usergroup SET usergroupid = 8 WHERE usergroupid = 9;
UPDATE user SET usergroupid = 8 WHERE usergroupid = 9;
[/sql]
Might cause unpredictable results though, for all I know.

What is the default Banned by Moderators group? I had a usergroup I set up called Banned at usergroup 8 because I never saw the Banned by Moderators group until I test banned someone from the mod cp. It never showed up until then. That was the only reason I made a special banned group. If this is the default one, then I don't need the other one. But since it was usergroup 8, this one seemed to move up to usergroup 9. Can anyone verify or dispel filburt's possibility?

you have to upgrade the forumpermission table, too.

but it's not needed, the val of the id is irrelevant.
here for example it's 9, too.

So I'd probably be better off to just go change the usergroupid for the banned group in the php files where I have coded things for that group instead of changing the actual usergroupid number then?

yes :)

i won't make those things hardcoded....

just create a function isbanned() and use this function everywhere instead of $bbuserinfo[usergroupid]==8..

Ok, how would I go about making that function? That sounds like a better idea, anyway. But there are certain areas where it will not work. Like if you have USERGROUPID NOT IN (5,6,7,9). How would you do it then?

you're right some problems are still there...

add this to functions.php:

PHP Code:


		
			
$bannedusergroupid = x;

function isbanned() {

global $bbuserinfo,$bannedusergroupid;

return $bbuserinfo['usergroupid'] == $bannedusergroupid;

}

so you can use $bannedusergroupid in your usergroupid NOT IN (5,6,7,$bannedusergroupid) :)

I just need to change the x to the banned usergroupid number, right? Also, does it matter where it goes in functions?

right and no it doesn't matter :)
