Miscellaneous Hacks - Banned Users List

NOTE: This mod is marked "unsupported", but I'll try my best (as time permits) to help those who have marked as installed.


What is this!?
This modification will allow you show a page containing all of your banned users. I suppose you could think of this as a public "Wall of Shame", per say.


Check the screenshots to see exactly what is displayed.


Current Version
1.1.6


Features flagged for future version(s):

• Looking for suggestions

Will this work on x.x.x ??
Unless otherwise stated, this will work on all 4.0 versions. If you would like to use the vB 3.x version, you can find it here.


Sounds cool. How do I install?

1. Upload everything inside the "upload" directory of the zip file to your forums.
   
   • banned.php => To your FORUM ROOT directory
   • functions_bannedusers_list.php => To your FORUM_ROOT/includes directory
2. Login to your Admin Control Panel and go to "Plugins & Products" -> "Manage products"
   
   • Click on "Add/Import product"
   • Browse for "product-bannedusers.xml" (included in the zip file), and click "Import"
   • If upgrading from an older version, then set "Allow Overwrite" to "Yes".
3. In your admin control panel go to vBulletin Options => Banned Users List
   
   • Edit the Usergroups that you do not want to show the banned members list to.
4. Optional: Only if the auto template injection does not work, as the template hooks were not found.
   
   • In the "navbar" template, find:
     

     • {vb:raw template_hook.navbar_quick_links_menu_pos3}

   • Below it, add:
     

     • <vb:if condition="$vboptions['bannedusers_enabled'] AND $vboptions['bannedusers_hidefrom'] AND !is_member_of($bbuserinfo, $vbptions['bannedusers_hidefrom'])"><li><a href="./banned.php{vb:raw session.sessionurl}">{vb:rawphrase bannedusers_text}</a></li></vb:if>

Upgrade

1. Login to your Admin Control Panel
2. Go to "Plugins & Products" -> "Manage products"
3. Click on "Add/Import product"
4. Browse for "product-bannedusers.xml" (included in the zip file)
5. Set "Allow Overwrite" to "Yes", and click "Import"
6. Upload and overwrite 'banned.php' and '/includes/functions_bannedusers_list.php'

Would be very cool if you can see Permanent and Temporary banned users in the same page.

[Clamshells]

Installed.

Just a suggestion: allow the columns to be sorted ascending or descending.

Thanks!

Hmm, I may make this an option.

there's an uncached template "bannedusers_navbar"

PHP Code:

$cache[] = 'bannedusers_navbar'; 


hook "cache_templates"

Thanks, will fix this in the next version =)

Hello,

How can I edit the title to something different from "Banned Users: Permanent Ban, Usergroups: Banned Users"?

[Robbed]

pagination issue, does the same thing on vb default skin?

It has been a while, my apologies Robbed. I will look into that issue, but no guarantees. I am admittedly not the best with CSS.

Small bag:
Is not registered variable $lb_сolor in $templater = vB_Template::create('bannedusers');

Solution:

Open file: banned.php
Find:
$templater->register('alt2', $alt2);
And after that add:
$templater->register('lb_color', $lb_color);

My footer does not work with this hack. Why?

A username search feature would be great for this or showing the "ban reason" in the profile. Out ban list has over 100 pages and it's takes too long to find the user on the list using only alphabetical search.
