Just click on your member's usernames (not avatars) while reading the specific thread.

You will notice the following options in the drop-down menu:
- View Public Profile
- Send a private message to [member]
- Find all posts by [member]
- Add [member] to Your Buddy List
- Ban User from Thread

Choose "Ban User from Thread" and Whoala!

If you wish to unban the member, either click it's username again and choose "Unban User from Thread", or click Thread tools and choose to: Clear this threads bans, Clear every threads bans, or - View all threads bans.

Doesn't show and I did everything right. Will it conflict with other mods on my site?

No mate, I dobt there's a conflict with some other mod.
I'll have to repeat myself thouh

You probably missed step #3 from the installation manual:
- Open BOTH templates posbit and postbit_legacy;
- FIND:

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

- Bellow that code, add the following:

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

Make sure you edit both templates. It will surely work.

This is exactly what Coders Shack was looking for.

Thanks for this. It might come in handy. =]

In your zip file it says open one template OR the other. Not both. You should change that if that is what you meant. But it works now, so thanks.

See Here is what it says on your readme document.

3. Open your styles "posbit" or "postbit_legacy" template, whichever you use.
- Find near the bottom of the template:

<if condition="$post['userid'] AND $show['member']">
<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="profile.php?$session[sessionurl]do=addlist&amp;userlist=buddy&amp;u=$post[userid]"><phrase 1="$post[username]">$vbphrase[add_x_to_buddy_list]</phrase></a></td></tr>
</if>

- Below that, add:

<if condition="$show['btu_canban']">
<if condition="!isset($btu[$post[threadid]][$post[userid]])">
<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="postings.php?$session[sessionurl]do=btu_ban&amp;t=$post[threadid]&amp;u=$post[userid]">$vbphrase[btu_ban]</a></td></tr>
<else />
<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="postings.php?$session[sessionurl]do=btu_ban&amp;t=$post[threadid]&amp;u=$post[userid]">$vbphrase[btu_unban]</a></td></tr>
</if>
</if>

I'm glad it works now

It also says: "whichever you use".
But since most people don't really know which template to edit, I'll change the readme document.

Thanks.

The limitation of the original is still the limitation of the revised version, it seems. Mods actually need this more than Admins. Mods are always on the site, not the Admins. Oh well, shouldn't look a gift horse in the mouth...

Thanks man. I just wanted to give you a heads up on that. You had me confused.

[Muellmann]

Awesome hack indeed clicked install now.

[Milad]

Some edits can be done via the new template hooks

also

for the plugins newreply_start, threadmanage_start and showthread_getinfo, it's better to use init_startup

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

And then, in next hooks, use

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

By doing that, you'll optimize the hack and save three unnecessary queries.

I would love to see the ability to ban people (or even usergroups (doesn't matter ATM)) from threads without needing them to post first. What if you don't want them to see the thread in the first place? It would be nice to either have a dialogue where you enter the specific user's userid, or go to their profile page and ban them that way.

At this time, the mod's benefit is that it only installs with a Product file; not seperate .php files.

I installed this and when I use quickreply, no matter how long my quickreply is, it keeps saying I need to insert at least 10 characters.

I had a hard time finding out where it came from and it was this hack!

I dont know what happened, but its annoying, good hack, but shame for the bugs. uninstalled

- edit

now my whole forum is screwed up, thanks a lot!

There are over 50 installs of this hack and one is mine and nobody seems to be having this problem. Maybe you need to uninstall and reinstall hack.
