Ban from Thread
This mod allows your moderators to do the following:
Ban a user from a thread via the username drop down menu in a post (as well as the admin/mod cp).
This opens a page which allows you to select a ban period, whether or not to allow the user to view the thread, and provide a text message which the user will see when trying to view or reply to the thread.
Once you ban the user you are returned to the same post from which you banned.
You will now notice a small icon besides the ip icon.
Clicking on that will open a page that will display the current ban information as well as a list of other threads from which this user is banned.
You will also have the option to edit or lift the ban from here.
You may now also unban the user from the username drop down menu.
From the admin cp you can set whether you wish to have a Private Message sent to the user whenever they are banned/unbanned.
You may also view, edit, or lift bans from the admin/mod control panel. Just click on the 'view banned from thread users' link.
To Intall:
Please see the 'readme' text file for installation instructions.
Revisions:
version 1.1
Fixed a problem with search bots.
Just re-import the product, but remember to select 'allow overwrite'.
I hope you find this mod useful.
Sincerely,
FullyTested.

I'm sure it'll be useful. I tested it really quick, but nothing was difficult.
One of my staff brought up - is it possible to apply this to a usergroup? If that's possible, we can throw bunch of troll-candidates into that usergroup, then ban the usergroup from the thread that may be attracted to those troll-candidates.
That's an interesting idea and could be done from the 'thread tools' drop down menu button.
But like you said that would have to be a new hack all together.
Hi
need permission from you , if you can please to change the titles of the script to arabic language, just titles to make the manage of it , in arabic language.
So if you please can tell me where exactly must make changes to titles and options
thank you
To replace the phrases to Arabic do the following:
1). Open the 'ban_from_thread' product and at the bottom you will see all the phrases.
Code:
<phrase name="xxx"><![CDATA[yyy]]></phrase>
2). For each phrase replace the 'yyy' text with your own. Only the 'yyy' part, not the 'xxx'.
3). Re-upload the product via the admin cp product page and be sure to select 'Allow Overwrite'.
4). Done.
P.S.
Is your site Lebanese? If so, I used to be your neighbour
Yes to the south
As for a free combined mod there are a few problems with that.
The first is that I have to pay my rent somehow.
The second is that it is not yet in phrases (English Only) and will require time to convert.
The third is that it also has admin moderation for when a moderator applies a permanent site ban (if not approved (or ignored) by admin, the ban reverts to a 7 day ban). This means that instructions on inserting the code will leave room for confusion as this mod has and will consume a lot of my time supporting it
If you really want it I could work on it this weekend.
Not sure if I should add it to this mod or create a new one called 'Ban via Postbit' which seems a little more accurate.
At any rate, check back here in a few days.
