Anti-Spam Options - One Touch Ban & Clean-up

One Touch Ban & Clean-up
(Best wishes to mfyvie's family)


This is, at it's core, just a port of this mod. But I may add new features later on.

The main purpose of this mod is to clean up after a spammer. With a minimum of fuss it will:

• Delete all threads started by the spammer
• Delete all posts made by the spammer
• Delete all PMs sent to other members by the spammer
• Delete all calendar events made by the spammer
• Ban or delete the spammer as you like
• Ignore permissions - posts can be deleted in areas that a moderator may not have access to.

The option to activate this tool appears in the drop-down menu in the postbit, as well as on the profile page. From here it is a "one-touch" operation, with the small exception that you must press a confirmation button before the cleanup is made.


See the screenshot for the various options, but some of the more interesting ones are:

• You can specify individual users (in addition to groups) who can use this tool. This means certain trusted, non-moderator users could have the ability to clean up spam and ban spammers.
• You can specify users or groups who are protected - they cannot be deleted by this tool.
• By default, users who have registered more than 30 days ago are also protected from this tool (spammers tend to be caught and removed fairly soon after registration)
• You can turn the various deletion targets (threads, posts, events, PMs) on or off
• Select between hard delete or soft delete

This mod is similar to some older mods, but improved in a number of ways:

• You also have the choice to alter the standard ban and delete reasons before you press confirm.
• Deletes more types of spam (PMs, events)
• Simple, quick, effective
• Single file import (.xml) no file edits, no template edits, no .php files to upload
• Should work on all versions of 3.6.x and future versions

Installation

Download and import the .xml file via AdminCP -> Plugins & Products -> Manage Products -> Add/Import Product. Remember to click overwrite if upgrading

Configuration

Once installed, check in your AdminCP under "VBulletin settings" and look for the configuration group called "One-touch Spam Ban & Cleanup Options". The default options should be fine for most people.

How to use

If you have rights to use this tool (i.e. are an admin or moderator, or have configured it for the relevant user or group ID) you should see the option appear in a drop-down on the postbit (see attached screenshots for an example). The idea is that as soon as you see a spammer select the "One-touch Ban & Clean" option to remove all trace of the spammer.

Okay, but how do I check? The MOD doesn't require any tweaking of variables. Once installed, all settings are in the AdminCP > Settings > Options > One Touch Ban & Cleaner Options.

If there is a variable setting that requires changing, what/were is it, and what does it need to be changed to?

This is what is in postbit_onetouchban

{vb:rawphrase spammer_ban_member}
</a>
</li>

You would be best to disable all other mods then use this one (close forums make test accounts and make as many as you need until you have fully tested the mod) see if the error comes up if not enable one mod at a time then check this mod until you find the problem as it looks like another mod is messing with this one. I run this mod on 3 forums and have never had a error with it

this doesn't work for me. i installed it but i never see the option for the one button cleanup. vb4.2.0 any ideas as to how to make it work?

[fxdigi-cash]

Hi, I tried this plugin on my v4.2 and works fine without any troubles.

@galactictoad, I think it is very simple. All you need is to upload the plugin using the control panel and then you will see the this feature in the option menu at the bottom. Then activate it and look at a user post and click his options to see this feature there.

I did it and it is working fine.

any question, please don't hesitate.

Cheers

1. Log in to your Admin CP and scroll down to Plugins & Products >> Manage Products

2. Under Import Product, Browse to where you unpacked the zip/xml file and then click on product-onetouch_ban_clean_1.xml

3. Then click on Import

Done: installed.

Go to any post click on a users name you will see the option in the drop down
If you want the updated version with blogs added pm me

it seems weird but the one touch stuff does't seems to be aligned with the icon
