Hi

Do i need the permission to make the changed product .xml file public here?


The threadstarter can now ban/unban users from his thread. Threadstarters can't use "view all thread bans" and "clear all threads bans".

Thanks to KirbyDE for his help.



1.
AdminCP -> Plug-ins & Products -> Plugin Manager

Look for btu_manager -> (Hook) threadmange_start

Open and search for (line 98)

PHP Code:

if (!$show['btu_canban']) 


After

PHP Code:

if ($_REQUEST['do'] == 'btu_ban')
{ 


And replace with

PHP Code:

if (!$show['btu_canban'] AND !is_first_poster($threadid)) 


Save


2.
Add New Plugin:
Product -> Ban Thread User
Hook Location (Hook) -> postbit_display_complete
Title -> btu_canban threadstarter
Execution Order -> 5
Plugin PHP Code ->

PHP Code:

$show['btu_canban'] = ($this->registry->userinfo['userid'] AND $post['userid'] AND $post['userid'] != $this->registry->userinfo['userid'] AND (($this->registry->userinfo['permissions']['adminpermissions'] & $this->registry->bf_ugp_adminpermissions['ismoderator']) OR ($thread['postuserid'] == $this->registry->userinfo['userid']))); 


Plugin is Active? -> Yes

Save



Kind Regards,

Thanks for porting this to 3.6 Beano. You have no idea how I fretted over not having this in my forums.

I'm sure there's a cleaner way to do it, but this worked for me. I edited the plugin 'btu_canban' by adding this line at the end:

PHP Code:

$show['btu_canban'] = iif(can_moderate(), true, false);

Hi

Do i need the permission to make the changed product .xml file public here?
If i get permission, i can make a new product with more options.

Allow moderator also to ban or unban users from a thread. Moderators can't use "view all thread bans" and "clear all threads bans".

PHP Code:

if (!$show['btu_canban']) 


After

PHP Code:

if ($_REQUEST['do'] == 'btu_clear')
{ 


Replace with

PHP Code:

if (!$show['btu_canban'] AND !can_moderate($thread['forumid'])) 


Search for (line 98)

PHP Code:

if (!$show['btu_canban']) 


After

I'd like to use this, but restrict it by usergroup (paid subscribers). Is it simply a matter of changing this

PHP Code:

if (!$show['btu_canban'] AND !is_first_poster($threadid)) 


to

PHP Code:

if (!$show['btu_canban'] AND !is_first_poster($threadid) AND !is_member_of($bbuserinfo, x)) 


where x is the usegroup I want to give permission to?
