Moderators Functions - New Thread on User Banning by BOP5

The purpose of this mod is to create a new thread in a forum you specify whenever any user is banned.

NEW In Version 1.2 - Set a minimum post count for a user before a "new thread" is created on their banning- this way you don't bother making threads for spammers with just a handful of posts.

New in Version 1.3 - Very minor optimization of code- upgrade optional.

New in 1.4 - {USERID} is now a usable variable in the Ban Reason. Allows for links to the banned user's profile.

The title and message posted is easily customized, as is the username of the thread starter.

This has been tested on vBulletin 3.8.6 and 4.0.8 and should work on all versions of 3.8.x/4.0.x/4.1.x. It may work on earlier versions too.

Read the info txt file in the .zip for full instructions.

See the screenshots for more details.

Please "Mark as Installed" if you use this.

In your Admin CP (Administrator Control Panel) go to Settings -> Options -> and scroll down the the mod "New Thread on Banning by BOP5" and double click on it. (It's usually near the bottom of the list when newly installed.)

That will bring up the Mod Settings which will look like this:



You make all your settings here. The forum where to create the new thread you must select from the "New Thread Forum" drop down box. Just click on the little down triangle to see the available forums.

Any way to add a {PROFILE} or something so it also adds a link to the user profile.

I just updated to version 1.4. {USERID} is now something you can use in the Ban Reason option.

Therefore you can make a profile link by using code like this in the ban reason:

[url=http://www.juot.net/forums/member.php?{USERID}]{USERNAME}[/url]

change the URL to your forum's URL and you should be all set. That will link the username of the banned user to their profile.

Note: Don't use quotes in the URL tag, I've seen it cause problems.

Great, thanks!

I have a ridiculous tranny troll alias problem right now this will definitely come in handy.

Do you know of any other quick ban options?

No I don't know of any other "quick ban" options... and honestly I'm not sure how this would help you ban someone any quicker- just meant to keep the community or your mods aware of who has been banned.
