give mods ability to ban users

right now as far as I know the only way to ban a user is to use the admin account.

would it be possible to allow mods to ban users as well?

You mean ban IP, not user, right? Mods can ban registered users.

mods having the ability to ban userids

Moderators have the power to disable/lock member accounts: when logged in as a Mod, one will see at the end of each member's profile a "Member Yes/No" option. "No" disables the member's account, and "Yes" unlocks the account.

Banning by IP or user ID is the most "hard" method of ban, and it is currently available only to admin. Mods can block accounts like marsbar explained, but I personally finding it a bad idea to give somebody except the admin the rights to ban by IP. It should be done only by experienced person.

so how can i set this option for some mods only not for all mods ?
for example some mods can ban and edit user profiles,
and some mods can not ban and edit profiles,
or ban but without editing user profile!
anyone has idea?
how about u Mr.Paul ;)

I don't provide custom solutions for free, but it would be possible if you hardly edit the core scripts.

I succeed to change code in bb_func_usernfo.php
now Mods Can't ban user! and it's ok!
But I want to give ability for 2 of My Mods for Banning users, and For other Mods not!
Thanks :-)

Condition by $user_id will help you...

$allowed_mods_array=array(12,15);
if(in_array($user_id, $allowed_mods_array)) {
//allow something
}
