I guess you have "This Usergroup is not a 'Banned' Group" set to "no".

If it's set to "no", then I really have no idea why it's not working, I'm not able to replicate the bug in any way...although i did fixed one error before (displayed a non-existent ban...and now it doesn't). So my guess would be that for some reason, it's not retrieveing the ban information from the database

Banned usergroup is set to no...the previous version worked fine, it was just the ban date was wrong.
**I went back to the older version...I can live with the 1969...makes my board look real old that way!

[tintructo]

Could you please mark as installed ?

Also, is only with one user or with every banned user ?

[echo2kk5]

O.K. I lifted the ban...then gave a custom infraction ban I had created, now it shows the proper ban date...this is with the original mod version. Do you suggest I try using the newer version? or shall I not fix what's not broken?

*** Clicked Installed, and thanks for your time.

[massizero]

is it possible to show both the infractions?
I mean either red card (ban) or yellow card (warning) depending on the infraction?
SO all the users could see why a user got a warning too

thanks

This is great. I had to make an announcement when a popular member asked to be banned to study for exams... with this, I won't need to anymore

haha, in my comminity the users are very close, and it's practically normal to ban at least one of them for some days every 2 weeks or so, and all of them always wanted to know WHY was the ban and I had to make this product :P Glad you liked it

vbulletin by default shows an Infractions Tabs...this was made for Bans, not infractions (given that that information already exists in the profile). So I really don't know what you mean.

Sorry If i was not clear enough
What I meant it is exactly what you said, I'd like that in the box your hack shows the ban date/ban reason, it could even show the warning date/ warning reason..

that's all

thanks
