wow this is hurting my head. This is what I found.

If you click on the users name and have the box pop up and you select the words "ban user from thread" it doesn't work, you get the unbanned user from thread wording, BUT

if you click on the IMAGE in the profile (ban image) it works! lol

Need to figure out why the pop up box part isn't working. Since I seem to have good luck with say "any ideas" I'll say it again

Any ideas?

[centralss]

ok pop up box is working, must have just needed to refresh browser!!

Perfect. Thank You.

I installed that instead of teh original in order to have mods be able to use this, and now it is banning users from random threads all over the place. The original mod was working fine and not doing this. Any ideas?

Mate, it is NOT banning random users from random threads, I asure you.

Note that by using the modified installation (Julrou's modification) - ALL your moderators have permission to ban users from ALL threads. So I'm pretty sure that your moderators are setting the bans all over your forum. That's why I recommend everyone the original installation.

I've enhanced it in order to allow mods and supermods to ban user from thread.

Just re-upload the xml file in the admincp (allow overwrite -> yes).

You can choose to give or not the ability to mods and supermods to ban from a thread in the templates modifications (see the new README file in this post's attachments) : just modify the usergroups you want in this line :

PHP Code:

<if condition="in_array($bbuserinfo['usergroupid'], array(5,6,7))"> 


(at the start of every template modifications).

I try to install this version.. i insert array(5,6,7)) (moderator, GM and admin) but ALL THE USERS can ban EVERYONE from a thread

Well, if your REGISTERED USERS usergroup has grupID 5, 6, or 7... they will have permission to ban. You need to see the IDs for Administrators, Super Moderators and Moderators gropus and replace them with 5, 6 and 7. The group IDs can be different...

If you are not sure what to do with Julrou's modification, just install the original mod in the first post.

Yes of course i've checked before that my usergroup 5,6 and 7 were Admin/GM and Mod.
No problem, i've make some error of course. ^^

I love this mod and i've installed it 'normally' but it was nice if i can use it for my moderator :P
Thanks anyway, i try to reinstall it.

edit: i think i make it right now, thanks.

Is there any way to see who banned a member from a thread?

[TroyTrojansFan]

Hi,
I've installed the mod and it seems to be working fine, except for the threadban and threadunban images are not showing up. I've uploaded the two images to the images/buttons/ folder. Did I put them in the wrong place or something?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Good job on the mod. I like it. ;-)

Just updating this to say its working fine with 3.7.3
