Boot User from specific Forum immediately · **Released**: 02-03-2003

BOOT USER v.1.01

Goal: Remove any user from any specific forum, immediately. For admins and/or moderators, all posts will have a red X underneath them. Click the X once to ban that user from the specific forum and automatically send them a PM notifying of their banning. Click the X again to restore access and send a PM.

Usefuleness: Good for quick and immediate action. Changes access masks and sends an automatic PM each time so you don't have to mess with an explanation.

Requirements:

-Access masks turned on
-Annoying users that need a boot in the arse

Installation:

-Create and upload one file to mod
-Make one addition in functions.php
-Upload one gif
-Make one addition to the postbit template

Difficulty: Easy

Speed: Very Quick

Release: 1.01-- Feb 05, 2003

Updated: Feb 05, added moderator-use instructions
Updated: 7:19 pm, removed pmunread bug

p.s. CLICK INSTALL if you use it!

Sorry, here's the gif

Excellent hack!

Just a couple of small problems.

First, how can I make it so they cannot ban the Admin of Supermods or Mods from a forum? I just banned myself and had to go in and change it back manually.

Second, when it sends the email, there is no name in the message body of the email. All I got was a comma where the name should be.

Is there also a way to have the words "Banned from this forum" or something like that so the Mods can know if someone has already been banned so they don't accidentally un-ban someone?

And a redirect might be nicer than opening a whole window just for the few lines to show what has been done.

I'd be interested in those add-ons too ... maybe another hacker could do it?!
The hack is great - and those addons would make it even greater

will wait for addons as they seem to be needed after reading all this thread

I want the bootuser button as test link - but cant seem to able to accomplish that ... can someone give me a hand there, plz

Im making some modifications to this hack. Im working on making it so that mods and admins can not kick admins mods or supermods.

Alright I have this hack so that you can ban users and other user groups but not ban a staff member. A staff member being a mod, admin, or supermod. If anybody is still interested in this please let me know. I will be glad to help you out.
