Quick Ban/UnBan

Since the Modcp link is gone from the bottom of the
page my moderators needed a quick way to ban a user without going
to the modcp. So this hack adds aoption to Ban a user directly from
the offending post, via the drop down menu link by the users name.
This is Moderator Forum Specific, which means moderators can only ban
users in their own forum, and not in another moderators forum. Also a
moderator can not ban any of the forum Administrators.


This Hack is Based on Erwins Warning System/Automatic Ban Hack and Magnus's Add On.

if you do not want to have the UnBan Link than just remove this line

<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><span onmouseover="this.style.cursor='hand';" onClick="window.open('modcp/banning.php?do=liftban&userid=$post[userid]','liftban','width=500,height=375,scrollbars=yes')"><b>Lift Ban on $post[username]</b></span></td></tr>

also if you do not want it to be forum specific for your moderators replace this

<if condition="$post[usergroupid]!=6 AND can_moderate($forum[forumid], '', $bbuserinfo[userid])">

with this

<if condition="($bbuserinfo[usergroupid]==5 || $bbuserinfo[usergroupid]==6 || $bbuserinfo[usergroupid]==7)">

Can you write this that an email is sent to the member when they are banned with the reason, length of the ban, etc?

I put it in postbit_legacy and it shows up in the drop down, but when i click it, nothin happens! What's wrong?

[El Orans]

This code will show Admins the ban option (red) for non-banned members and the lift ban option (green) for banned members.

<if condition="$bbuserinfo[usergroupid]== <Admins>">
	<if condition="$post[usergroupid] == <Banned Users>">
		<tr>
			<td class="vbmenu_option">
			<span onmouseover="this.style.cursor='hand';" onClick="window.open('modcp/banning.php?do=liftban&userid=$post[userid]','liftban','width=575,height=375,scrollbars=yes')" style="color:green;">Lift Ban on $post[username]</span>
			</td>
		</tr>
	<else />
		<tr>
			<td class="vbmenu_option">
			<span onmouseover="this.style.cursor='hand';" onClick="window.open('modcp/banning.php?do=banuser&userid=$post[userid]','ban','width=575,height=375,scrollbars=yes')" style="color:red;">Ban $post[username]</span>
			</td>
		</tr>
	</if>
</if>

Awesome, working on vB 3.6.8 ... Installed ...

[Panzer Max]

I installed this but the moderators still cannot get it to work. They see the Ban link in the profile, but when they click it, a window appears asking them to log into the mod CP. then after the log in, tells them You are not authorized to ban users

Ideas?

I tried this using one style and editing the Postbit Legacy template. Tried it as it comes in the zip and with this piece replacing

<if condition="($bbuserinfo[usergroupid]==5 || $bbuserinfo[usergroupid]==6 || $bbuserinfo[usergroupid]==7)">
