posticon New feature: Metabans (banning by email or IP)


Finally. Don't yell at me. Yes it took ages to put together, and there is nothing I can blame other than myself slacking.

Anyway.

Metabans are live, in beta test. Use at your own risk, but it shouldn't be so bad. You can find the meta bans along with the regular bans settings in the Control Panel > Board Mgmt > Security Mgmt > Banned users

Moderators or better have access to it.

Be CAREFUL, however. If you define an email metaban with no exact matching, with the text being "supamail.com", NO user from supamail.com will be able to post on your board at all.

Same for IP addresses.

One cool thing is, however, that if you ban yourself, and can't post on your board anymore, don't sweat. You still have access to board mgmt in control panel, and can remove the offending metaban. So don't come crying about how you banned yourself emoticon

Please report any misbehaviour here.

The feature is beta, and certainly lacks flexibility. I am looking forward to hear suggestions about this feature, how can I improve it, etc.

Also, if you are a moderator or better on a particular board, you will see the originating IP address of a user at the time of writing a post.

Don't ask how can you find out the email address of a particular user! Other than asking them directly, there is no way to find it out at Akheva. It is personal data and even if you are board administrator, you can't access it.

Re: New feature: Metabans (banning by email or IP)


Slight problem.

IP metabans should be working on the com1.akheva.com server, but not on the com2/com3.

I'm working on it.

Email bans should be working everywhere.

Hi Thor!

I'm on a com1 server and I see the 0.0.0.0 as well. Just thought I'd let you know.

Thanks for making this happen! emoticon

Re: New feature: Metabans (banning by email or IP)


I see that your own IP shows up where it says logged on, but is there a way that you can see your board members IP's - perhaps on their user profile? It would be useful for the board owners to see if we have this new feature.

Re: New feature: Metabans (banning by email or IP)


It's working now.

It's showing up after you made the correction but not on previous posts, but that's okay. I see it's working now.

Thanks again, Thor. You are the best! emoticon

Does this mean that those who own the board, admins staff and mods are the only ones who see the IPS?
