No problem!
I could be cool ! :up:
PM me :up:

Thanks for this great Hack

But you can, add the name of the Moderator/Admin who has banned a user from Thread?

eg.:

This is a Thread? [Clear All]
-- Love-vB [Unban] {banned by ShiZoPhreN @ 22.06.2008 | 22:47 }

Thanks: ) in Advance

However, if anyone wants to give all moderators the permisson to ban users from threads on all forums - install Julrou's modification. Tested - it works

you can use can_moderate() instead

It's kind of normal at this time : only admins can used this mod (except if you use my way, see messages above...).

[maidos]

already tried your way. mods stillc ant see the ip icon

[Thelonius Beck]

I will have to give this a shot. I liked the old Mod for 3.6.X, but all of the file edits made it not worth it after an upgrade. This looks much more user friendly.

mods cant move the threads. im uninstalling this mods.. its too unstable
