e-steki Banlist

e-steki Banlist is a listing of all the users that are banned, with the reason provided, the bandate, the lift date and who banned them (you can hide all of them via the admincp if you want to) and additionally some little banning stats on the bottom (you can hide those too). It is fully phrased and has the ability to break the list into multiple pages.

Installation
1. Upload banlist.php to your forums root directory
2. Import the product XML
3. Done! Now you may add a link somewhere to www.yoursite.com/forum/banlist.php so that other people can visit it.

Don't forget to click install! By clicking install you will be notified of updates and you will also provide motivation to me to make more hacks.

I hope you enjoy it as I'm coding it since 7 in the morning (it's now 13:45!)

For some reason my admins are showing on the list. As being permbanned users. Userid's 1 & 2. So I think its a problem with my table.

As for the permbanned users, maybe an option? I know I have doznes of permed users that are kinda cluttering the list.

But if there is just a if userid=1+2 kinda statement I can put in the .php to fix the 1st issue that would be great.

Wait, I'll work it out now and give you the fix

About the perm users try this and tell me if it works cause I haven't tried it in action:

Find:

PHP Code:

if(($i>($page-1)*$perpage) && ($i<$page*$perpage)) 


change to:

PHP Code:

    if(($i>($page-1)*$perpage) && ($i<$page*$perpage)&& ($banned['liftdate']!=construct_phrase($vbphrase['never']]))) 


I'm very unsure about it but you can try.

[john1744]

Seems to just bring up a white page.

[Lea Verou]

Damn! This is the only thing I didn't expect

Try changing it to this:

PHP Code:

if(($i>($page-1)*$perpage) && ($i<$page*$perpage)&& (is_numeric($banned['liftdate']))) 


[Lea Verou]

I guess you tried it on a test board cause it shows ok for me but does include the perm banned users...

[eNforce]

YES YES YES!

I requested something just like this twice, this is superb

[Lea Verou]

eNforce are you referring to the hack or to the fix?
Also, if you have it installed please click install to be notified of updates.

[eNforce]

The hack

Just installed, thanks!

Edit: Idea!

How about having it show somewhere if the ban has been lifted earlier then the lift date?

Edit:

Oh, and for the stats it displays all members in the list banned as a total, though some have been lifted. Maybe have the stats show total bans for only the members currently banned, instead of including the lifted bans.

Edit the reasons via phpmyadmin instead (you probably know that already but I thought I should mention, just in case )

What database is it in?
