Go to Tools > Cron entries > Delete expired bans and select to run every 15 - 20 minutes.

@Siropu Why this change are back to default after Xenforo or add-on update?

 

[Siropu]

I think the cron entry is re-added every time. You can try creating a new cron entry with the same details but with custom time and assigned under no add-on.

@Siropu, I want to buy it. Does it work with 2.1? Will it work for quickly banning unregistered guests by IP from their front-end post if they spam? Thanks.

We have given unregistered guests posting permissions for more participation. So we really need this to be quickly able to ban from the front-end and prevent misuse of guest posting.

 

[Siropu]

It doesn't work with guests at the moment but I can add it in a future version.

Thanks a lot. Any rough ETA when you will add it, so I would know when to buy it? Really would be very helpful and will make your addon fully featured. And make it work on 2.1 too.

 

[Siropu]

No ETA for now. I haven't tested it on XF 2.1 yet but I don't see why it shouldn't work.

Is it possible to pay something extra for your time to help you to add it sooner? Thanks.

 

[Siropu]

I'm working on my other add-ons at the moment and I have to finish what I've started.

Do you offer a discount if I want to purchase 2 licenses for 2 different forums?

 

[Siropu]

With each license you purchase, you get 10% off for the next one, up to 50%. It applies automatically.

Could you add the option to replace banned users' usernames with a custom username, the way you do with avatars? And remove link to profile from posts? I want to anonymize posts made by one of the banned usergroups, the way guest posts are - generic avatar, generic username, no link to profile.

 

[Siropu]

You mean set a temporary username or rename the user?

 

[Manya]

Sorry I wasn't clear. Don't rename the user, just don't display their username and a link to their profile on their posts, while the ban lasts.

 

[Siropu]

There is a CSS class that you can use to hide the username without an add-on.

.username--banned { display: none; }

Hi @Siropu, great add-on, thanks for making it.

One suggestion: On the member_macros list of links, can the add-on hide (or replace) the "Ban Member" link which is part of XenForo core?

See attached screenshot.

Clicking the "Ban member" link opens the default XenForo ban form, without the pre-defined Ban Reasons and option to Ban IPs. Clicking the "Ban" link at the bottom shows the add-on form. I think it is better to have just a single Ban link which uses your add-on features otherwise it will be confusing for moderators.

The built in XenForo link / form can be disabled by not giving the "Ban users" moderator permission but again, that's not ideal in my opinion. With your add-on installed there should be only one way to manage how moderators ban members.

What do you think?

 

[Siropu]

I will see what I can do about that.

 

[Nirjonadda]

@Siropu Please can you add option banned users have access to "Contact Us" form?

 

[Siropu]

I don't know about that. In my opinion that is beyond the purpose of the add-on but if more users are interested in this, I could add it.
