Quick Ban

<font size="3">What does this hack do?</font>

This hack changes the Report this post to a moderator button to a link to quickly ban the user, if the user clicking the link is either an administrator, supermoderator, or moderator, and has the right permissions to ban the user. But, if the user is either an admin, supermod, or mod, then the link will be a regular report link again.

The advantage about this hack is that you don't have to go all the way to the mod cp to ban a user, if you have the right permissions to, because you don't need to report the post then, anyways.

Got this working via 2.3.0 w/ few minor modifications. I also amended the script to display the entire link in the $reportpost variable, so non-staff would see Report to Mod and staff would see Ban User as a text link.

I get this error message in 2.3.0

Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in /home/v6p/public_html/forums/admin/functions.php on line 391

Line 390 to 401:

PHP Code:

    if ($post['usergroupid']!=2) {
    $reportpost="report.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&postid=$post[postid]";
      }
      elseif ((!$perms[ismoderator] and !$ismod=$DB_site->query_first("SELECT * FROM moderator WHERE userid=$bbuserinfo[userid] AND canbanusers=1")) AND !$reportpost) {
        $reportpost="report.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&postid=$post[postid]";
      }
    elseif (($bbuserinfo['usergroupid']==5 or $bbuserinfo['usergroupid']==6 or $bbuserinfo['usergroupid']==7) AND ($post['usergroupid'] != 5 and $post['usergroupid'] != 6 and $post['usergroupid'] != 7) AND !$reportpost) {
        $reportpost="mod/user.php?action=ban&userid=".$post['userid'].$qbgroup;
    }
    else {
        $reportpost="report.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&postid=$post[postid]";
    } 


Any ideas?

Try putting global $DB_site; before all that code.
