Was the ban function fixed on the new release before I go installing it?
I have tested it back, honnestly no problem found.
Command was fixed a bit in version 0.1.0 and was working well after that.
The only thing that could mess it is if you haven't followed correctly command install instructions.

Is there a way to prevent this?
And what about posting an huge text-file, lets say 5 MB.?
I can't prevent those kind of things. Image are added through normal BBCODE system so if user can do it elsewhere on the forum they will be able there too.
excellent- this is my second update this week but well worth it
since everything seems to be working completely now.
Thank you.
One question:
Is there any way to add a confirmation to the delete command?
The delete post and delete all posts are so closely spaced in the menu
that a browser burp may mistakingly delete all the users post when only a single post deletion was intended.
I removed the table row from the command as a temporary measure to avoid mods from mouse slipping.
Great update man! Awesome. The colors are working great now, thanks
Feature/Command Suggestion: Sticky Shouts. I know there is the announcement, but sometimes I would like to get more important messages over the shoutbox. So my suggestion is a Sticky command. When used, the message that was used displays normally as every other shout, but it stays at the top of the shoutbox, and all messages sent after that go under it. This is something that would really benefit me, and others.

I am planning on adding a confirm message to avoid mistakes

I have the maximum font set to 4. But, if someone manually types in the font size, they can set it to whatever size they want.
Is there something you can add to say if it goes over xx it gets reset to the maximum number? Like if a user entered 7, and my max number is 4, it would be reset to 4?
