Hi trying out bbPress 1.0.2 and stumbeled on a litte “problem”.

When setting a user to blocked and that user tries to login he/she is presented whit a “you are blocked” notice, and presented with a “back to forum main page” link.

The problem is that the back to forum main page link doeasn’t take to user back to the forum main page. He/she is only presented whit the same notice again..

Tried to use bb-login.php?logout=1 to see if user gets back in then, but it doesnt help.

The user has to either close his/hers browser or manually delete the cookie in browser.

Looked at the bug track system, but no mention of this there.

This is not a major problem since user has most likely been blocked for a reason, but what if an error has been done, and user wants to go back to main forum page and contact admin?

Here is a solution I found…

There is probably a better solution, but this fixes the going back to front page for blocked users…

Add this code to bb-includes/functions.bb-core.php line 1183

// If user blocked logout user and clear auth_cookie

if ( $id = bb_get_current_user_info( ‘id’ ) ) {

if( bb_get_usermeta( $id, ‘been_blocked’ ) === “1”) {

bb_logout();

bb_clear_auth_cookie();

}

}
