Can a person make their own ban page?

Absolutely, just edit includes/banned.php - it can be a static HTML page or PHP script, it's up to you.

Not really, it just displays a page or redirects to a different URL. If all the user wants is displaying a message then a simple HTML in banned.php would do.

Paladin, you can use this code if you want:

Code:

<?
header("HTTP/1.0 403 Forbidden - You don't have permission to access this server");
header("Connection: close");
header("Content-Type: text/html");

echo "<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC \"-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN\">\n"
   ."<html><head><title>403 Forbidden</title></head>\n"
   ."<body bgcolor=white link=999999>\n"
      ."<table width=100% height=100%>"
         ."<tr><td width=100% height=100% align=center valign=middle>"
            ."<h1><font face=\"arial black\">Forbidden</font></h1>\n"

            ."<img src=\"/images/html403.jpg\"><br><br>"

            ."<strong><font face=\"arial\">You do not have permission to access this service.</font></strong><br><br>\n"
            ."We apologise for the inconvenience. If you seek further information<br>\n"
            ."or have any questions, contact the administrator at "
            ."<script type=\"text/javascript\">document.write('username' + '@' + 'domain.com');</script>"
            ."<br><br>\n"
         ."</td></tr>"
      ."</table>"
   ."</body></html>";

exit();
?>

Make sure to change your email address in the javascript (it should protect against most adress harvesters) and upload your own picture to /images/html403.jpg or something similar.

Im the developer of this code and I think I know what my system needs or not Very Happy

You will broke atleast 3 functions in my system if you use your own code. So as I said, Changes on your own risk. And in next release will you broke even more functions.

But offcourse it's up to anyone to make their own code. The thing you can do is just reddesign it and keep all my codes if you know what your doing.

Im not turning you down here maciekp just a warning that my system will not work as it should .

Mister, there are no functions in banned.php, and blocker.php only calls:

Code:

include("includes/banned.php");die();

. Am I missing something? Wink

I understand that, but you've said that this modification will break 3 functions in existing release. I'm referring to 1.14b2...

Anyway, the conclusion is that if you modify banned.php now you'll have to change it again when the next version comes out.

Umm... in the next release will there be a function so the GOD account can't get banned him or herself? I managed to ban myself once using Protector and it seems to me that Protector ought to follow the lead of nuke- the GOD account can't be deleted, or banned.

Quite simple:

Oh, I can attest to the efficacy of the Protector! I have it on my site and just from idle, mindless curiosity I ran Raven's snippet above and behold I banned myself.
http://yoursite.com/admin.php?admin=blahblah
Go ahead, click that link. I dare you! Now I have to figure out how to unban myself, any ideas?

I was sorry to remove the Protector but there was no other way to re-access my admin panel. It'd be good if there were a function so admins can't accidentally ban themselves. Smile

I am the admin on my site, buddy, and you ain't lived til you've banned yourself. Smile

BTW it's not unusual:
