XF 1.5 Moving a certain usergroup into the 'banned' usergroup

[RossJenkins]

Hey,

Any possible way I can move all a certain usergroup into the banned UG?

There is no banned user group in XF, but you can ban members of a given user group in a batch.

In the ACP, go to the users tab and use Batch Update Users. Select the user group you want to ban, then click search. Then check the 'Ban Users' box and click 'Update Users'

Perfect, thanks.

Any way I can allow the banned person to still visit the forum (I want them to be able to see and add a thread in the dispute forum)

?

Banned is banned, they have no access to the site.

It sounds more like you should create a user group that can only access the one forum where disputes are filed and move the users to that group without totally banning them.
