Banning users doesn't work

Banning users doesn't work was created by eyerouge
When I try to ban a user through the menu in their profile nothing really happens. A textbox appears, asking me for the reason, I type it in, hit submit, and that's it - it disappears and I'm back at the same users profile once again. Is that supposed to happen?

I've tried this multiple times, in both IE & FF, with different users, on different users, but always with the same result. Yes, the option is on in the config (else the menu wouldn't appear) and the modgroup is set to Manager, and I've tried banning with both Super-admin, Admin and Manager, and couldn't even get rid off a singel registered user this way.

I've also tested the block-user option in the backend, and that works great.

Any clues?

the cb banning you talk about is about hiding a profile from view. (can be used as a warning for filthy profiles) after hiding a registered users profile, a moderator or admin can still see that profile, but other registered users cannot.

the joomla banning causes the user to be not able to login. (more of a real ban)

Hi Guys,
In my case, it doesn't work this way either. I created 3 accounts:

Acc#1: Admin
Acc#2: Member #1
Acc#3: Member #2

Admin bans the Member #1 profile by clicking the ban button and filling the formmail that comes after that.

Nothing happens. No e-mail is sent to Member #1 and when Member #2 loggs in, still can view the Member #1 profile.

Any thoughts on this?

TIA.

Profile banning in CB Configuration Manager on the Moderation tab is indeed set to "Yes". I even double checked.
