Mutual blocking of members

When one member blocks another I would prefer it to be a mutual block by default.

Example:

Member A blocks Member B from accessing their contents.

Automatically create Member B blocks Member A from accessing Member B's contents,

I'm sure it's not tricky, but I can't get my head around where I need to put the code to do the extra save to the sys_block_list. Can anyone give me any pointers?

Thank you

Or a switch to let one decide.  Also, a member has no way of knowing which members have blocked them.  I started to work on that so my members can see who has blocked them and return the favour.  However, I like your idea.

You can't return the favour if they blocked you first (as far as I can tell). You can unblock someone from your blocked list so there is still a way to resolve matters. I'm not familiar enough with the way Dolphin works to implement it.

No, the member can block.  If member A blocks member B and then member B finds they have been blocked by A, member B can block A.  However, I like your idea of a mutual block, that makes sense.  When I have time I will look at making this change.  Remember you will have to make a note of the file because future upgrades will overwrite the change unless Boonex puts it into the code base.

For mutual blocking, the following code change should work (I have not tested) :

In list_pop.php , Find :

$sOutputCode = MsgBox( _t('_User was added to block list') );

Just below, Add :

db_res("REPLACE INTO `sys_block_list` SET `ID` = '{$iMemberId}', `Profile` = '{$iProfileId}'");

Thank you. I found that spot last night and implemented it before reading this morning. It does work. There are also a couple of places in customfunctions.inc.php in the chat module and BxDolCommunicator.php that I have modded as well for the mutual blocking.

It's all good! I'm slowly getting my head round how Dolphin does stuff.
