As designed Banned usergroup title not taking effect.

So within the user discouragement options, it is set that once a user is banned they get added to a group labeled "Banned by Moderators"

The Banned by Moderators group is set to change the users title to Banned and change the user name CSS to be a pink username.

However, upon banning a user, this does not happen.
 
Right, just re-entered the css.. correctly, bit of a nupty moment with a typo in the word color.

The CSS now works correctly, however the user title remains the same.
 
The value needs to be higher than any other group the user is a member of.

How are they being banned?
 
Have they been added to the group?

There have been some add-ons that have interfered with some user post-save stuff. Does rebuilding the user cache fix it?
 
Well if the CSS works, then I see no reason for the user title not to work *unless* they have a custom user title. It doesn't override their title then (which is generally expected).

That would be it, they are using custom user titles.

Is there any way to force this to be changed on banning even if it is custom?

Just a wild thought, but if you set "Can use Custom Titles" in the Banned User Group permissions to "Never", I think they will use the Banned Usergroup title :)
 
Once a custom user title has been set, changing the permission makes no difference.

You will have to reset it in the ACP.
 
In the new update can you add images for 'staff' like 'admin' and that? and banned users will have Banned in black and then an banned users images?

You can either add images for groups via "User title overide" (Admin CP -> User group -> select a user group, the option is present there) using <img src="img link here" /> you'll have to disallow custom user titles so that the image for the group stays there and avoid users changing it :p

If you just want titles instead of images that can also be done - http://xenforo.com/community/threads/user-status-ribbons-based-on-usergroups.11602/

Set display styling priority as you wish (to know about display styling priority - http://xenforo.com/help/user-group-styling/). Click "use the following user title" and add your image code there.

Go to your primary group under General Permissions there is the option of "Edit Custom Title", set it to (No) for your primary group. This will then disallow all groups to have a custom title (assuming you have extra groups as secondary). If all your groups are primary you'll have to do that permission change to all groups. This makes sure the image you want stays as the title for the usergroup and a user cannot change the title to something else.
