Boot User from specific Forum immediately

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: 7:19 pm, removed pmunread bug

Database error in vBulletin Control Panel 2.2.9:

Invalid SQL: UPDATE LOW_PRIORITY user SET pmunread=1 WHERE userid=1857
mysql error: Unknown column 'pmunread' in 'field list'

mysql error number: 1054

I get the above errror when running this ?

Can I just add that it does alter the access mask but the script gives the error above.

Sorry, bug.. just remove these lines from bootuser.php

if ($noshutdownfunc) {
$DB_site->query("UPDATE user SET pmunread=1 WHERE userid=$userid");
} else {
$shutdownqueries[]="UPDATE LOW_PRIORITY user SET pmunread=1 WHERE userid=$userid";
}


The zip is fixed now. Thanks!
