Zoints forumban - Ban members from a single forum

This modification allows staff to ban users from a single forum for a specified time period. Once banned, the user is automatically notified via private message. When the time period is up, the user is automatically unbanned from the forum and sent a PM notifying them of this fact.

A simple "forumban user" link is added to the user options in the admincp.
.

And there you are presented with the forumban system. From that point, it's all automated


And in vbulletin options > Zoints Forumban options:







Official support for this modification will be at http://network.zoints.com in this specific forum.

This mod works on 3.8.4.

I found that it is necessary to go into Forum Manager and set the Forum Ban Option to "On" for each mod on each forum one at a time. I expected the process to automatically set the option to "on" for all mods / forums once it was enabled. That assumption initially led me to believe that the mod wasn't working. Perhaps an automation of some kind could be looked at in a future update.

One small point is that mods can no longer issue sitebans. I got around this by setting up a special "Temp 3 Day Site Ban" infraction with enough points to activate an immediate ban. My mods use this to combat spammers/porn posts. The temp ban can then be reviewed by an SMod or Admin and made permanent if required.

On the whole I am extremely impressed with this mod and would recommend it to anyone.

Hi there, I am upgrading vBulletin 4.0.7 and wondering whether it is still compatible.
Thanks!
