Redirect Banned Users To Another Site · **Released**: 12-15-2008

This is my first modification to be posted. However i did not create it as it is actually a part of vbulletin. a friend of mine pointed it out to me. So i posted the idea. Thanks WM.
This modification will redirect Banned Users to www.theybannedme.com. Banned users will not be able to access your forum and create new user id's. Only after a bann is lifted and they clear their cookies then they will get access again.

This modification is endorsed by theybannedme.com website, they put a link on their front page to this post...

Confirmed working on vB 4.0.0 if you use a replacement variable - <head>
Thanks for the contribution icarusforde

Instructions:

Admin CP->Styles and Templates->Style Manager->Your Skin Style->Edit Templates->header->Paste this at the very top..........

Code:

<if condition="$bbuserinfo['usergroupid'] == 8">
<meta HTTP-EQUIV="REFRESH" content="0; url=http://www.theybannedme.com">
</if>

If your banned usergroup id is something other than 8, change the value to what yours is........

Also, you can change the url to anything you want, in case you ever want to change it............

Updated>>> slightly changed version, thanks to DungBeetle= This will redirect a particular user

Code:

<if condition="$bbuserinfo['userid'] == X">
<meta HTTP-EQUIV="REFRESH" content="0; url=http://www.theybannedme.com">
</if>

This modification can also be used for a wide variety of creative purposes.

Tested on VB 3.6.x, 3.7.x, and 3.8.x

Confirmed working on vB 4.0.0 if you use a replacement variable - <head>

Please click INSTALLED if you use this

It seems that http://www.theybannedme.com/ has been down for more than a week now and is broken. The current downtime message says :

For anyone still using this mod, you may direct banned users to my site as theybannedme.com no longer exists. Site link is in my signature.

There is a way to do this, if I may post this here.

In your .htaccess file at the VERY TOP, place this:

# The following is IP deadbanning, it redirects if the IP matches
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} ^11\.111\.111\.111$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} ^111\.11\.111\.111$
RewriteRule .* http://banned.ytmnd.com/ [R=301,L]

Of course replace the 1's with the IP Addresses you'd like to use. (And those ones are a fake IP btw)

You may also replace the website as well, if you'd like.

Then if you want to add more, just copy & paste the following line:

"RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} ^111\.11\.111\.111$"

You want the last line to always be WITHOUT [OR]

Any line above that should contain that [OR] statement for new bans.

Hope this helps.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
