Banned Users List (with reason/date)

here it is, the Banned Users List hack, originally done by my host wired @ www.xirgo.com but he gave me rights to release it here..

basically this hack lists all banned users along with a reason for each user being banned, as well as the date they should be unbanned. this is VERY convenient for my mods over at my forum, as there was always talk of wondering who was banned and why, and with this hack this talk shall cease to exist. this is also great just to get your bannings organized and see how many users are banned in the first place.

a live demo of this hack is viewable on my forum: www.somethingleet.com/forum/showbanned.php ..

also when a mod bans someone from the mod cp, the reason and date is asked. the date doesn't have to be in a date format, it can be just 'forever' or something.

this hack has only been completely tested on vb2.2.2.. as of tomorrow it will be tested on vb2.2.4 when i upgrade my forum.

let me know what you guys think

Great!!!

Nice hack, great job!

Will this seperate onto multiple pages or will it continue all on one page (if yes to one page, could you make it to where after 10-20 members, it would split to multiple pages?).

as of now there unfortunately isn't any page seperation.. not sure if wired (who released it) will add this or not..

excerr: view www.somethingleet.com/forum/showbanned.php for the demo.

dalius: all you would do in the admin cp (a bit different from the mod cp) is change the user status to Banned in the User editor, and then go down to the bottom to the added Custom Profile fields and fill in the "Banned for" and "Banned until" fields, and then click submit.

open up showbanned.php and find

PHP Code:

        $banreasonfieldselect, usergroup.title, user.username, user.userid, user.invisible, user.receivepm,
        user.usergroupid, user.lastactivity, user.lastvisit, $banuntilfieldselect
        FROM usergroup
        LEFT JOIN user ON (usergroup.usergroupid = user.usergroupid)
        LEFT JOIN userfield ON (userfield.userid = user.userid)
        WHERE usergroup.showgroup = 1 AND usergroup.usergroupid = 15 


change 15 to your banned usergroup

basically.. add two fields to user profile for the reason of banning, and the length of the ban.

create a new user group called "Banned" (exact name/case required) and set permissions as you wish
(most likely you would set them all to 'No')

edit your config.php and add

-----------V
wherever i want??

//set fieldid's of banreason field and banuser field
$banreasonfieldid=10;
$banuntilfieldid=11;

-----------^

to the bottom of it, replacing '10' and '11' with the fieldid's of the reason and until field respectively.

Red= i don't understand, can somebody post an example code, because i don't know, how to make 2 new fields!
Green= Question by me
thx in adnace

in your admin CP... go to add under User Profile Fields..

then once the two profiles are created... look at the ID's of each one.. then edit it as requested for the config.php file.....
