A slight modification of an in house experiment described here.

Users are prompted with the option to ban any user they choose for a period within 3-30 days. Upon submitting, there is a half second pause, then the username switches with their own name followed with another half second pause, before the script finally submits. Don't worry -- the user input here is completely ignored.

The entered username is completely ignored, and the user submitting the form is banned for the period they entered.

Refer to attached screenshots for more info.

It's up to you to link to this file, and you can also view ban.php?do=view for a list of banned users.


... you may want to unban some of these users the next day. No pressure though.

Thanks!
Just for this mod. You are editing the ban.php page which was included with this hack and is the page users get sent to 'ban' someone.

The mod was fun and it was funny seeing ppl complaining in our chat box.

However, there is an issue when I am trying to unban them.

When they get 'banned', their primary group just gets changed to "COPPA users awaiting moderation", but when I search for users in that usergroup, it says there aren't any in there.

So I just can't go an unban them all easily. I now have to get them to report to me that they were banned. :s which is a pain cos there are some hundred+ ppl

Is there something I am missing? How can I mass-unban everyone?

You can see all banned users in Users > View Banned Users. The top of the list shows all users that are just temporarily banned.

What makes you think they are being moved to the COPPA group if when you go to view the users in that group you see none?

It didn't for me. It threw the users in another group I created years ago for another project. Additionally, it doesn't show me who is in that group. Meaning, I have people banned and don't know who they are. I even tried running a SQL query to see who was in my group 31. It shows no users, yet I removed another member out of the group today.

Yeah, this thing totally screwed my 3.6.8 install, but its my fault for not seeing that this was a 3.7 hack...

I just hope and pray that the unban part works and they will be able to get back on the forum.

When I go to view banned users, there aren't any of the users that were banned.

But when I go look at the individual user profile they say they are in the COPPA group, and I have to change that to registered user. But when I look at the COPPA group, there isn't anyone in there:S It's like..phantom user group!

Looking in the code, you can see he bans them to usergroup 8. If you deleted that group or changed it in anyway from the Default Banned Group it was defined to be by vBulletin, then I would imagine that could cause the problems you are seeing. Perhaps you deleted the group, so they are stuck in some usergroup 8 that doesn't exist.

You must have installed this hack on 3.6.x, like me. I'm screwed until these banned members somehow get in contact with me.

edit: And yes, I don't have a usergroup 8...

editedit: Wait! Maybe I can run a sql query looking for group 8. brblulz

editeditedit: That returned nothing either. Maybe I got everyone, or they are still in limbo...

oh, and the SQL query I used was
Code:
Query
SELECT * FROM user WHERE usergroupid='8'

I haven' t used it, but you most likely should copy it to forum root.
