Banned by moderator...

[Glock]

Also, should I have:

$bangroup=$DB_site->query_first("SELECT usergroupid,title FROM usergroup WHERE usergroupid=X");

or

$bangroup=$DB_site->query_first("SELECT usergroupid,title,usertitle FROM usergroup WHERE usergroupid=x");

Since you have said both, but I'm assuming the second and using that...

They are in usergroup 2, If you know at all...why do I have usergroups up to 8, when I only have 6 too?

the usergroupid of your banned group must be higher than 6:

PHP Code:

if ($bangroup['usergroupid']>6) { 


it's just a security issue, you can change the if-clause if ya want.

this is the line which produces your error:

PHP Code:

if ($banuser['usergroupid']!=2 or $ismod) {
    echo "<p>You may not ban someone who is not a normal registered user!</p>";
  } else { 


as you can see, if the user isn't in usergroup2 or the user is a mod, then it'll occure, no other possibilities to occur, so you have to recheck your user...

For the usergroup, is there a way to allow them to ban other usergroups also, such as going 2,3? For some reason, I redid the file and everything is working normally before, so that's setup fine, thanks fo rhte help. One thing though, I turned on moderate new users, and now all users are autlmatically being set to Administrator, could this hack have had anything to do with it?

[Xenon]

no, this hack hasn't anything to do with this problem.
perhaps you have made the moderated gruop as a secound admingroup?

you shouldn't change the rights of usergroups < 7, because often vb puts automatically users in one of this groups...

to ban also other usergroups, just add a clause to this:

PHP Code:

if ($banuser['usergroupid']!=2 or $ismod) {
    echo "<p>You may not ban someone who is not a normal registered user!</p>";
  } else { 


for example banning also usergroup3:

PHP Code:

if ($banuser['usergroupid']!=2 or $banuser['usergroupid']!=3 or $ismod) {
    echo "<p>You may not ban someone who is not a normal registered user!</p>";
  } else {
