Description

The BuddyPress Instaban plugin allows site administrators to quickly remove problem members with a single click from the front-end. A confirmation dialog prevents accidental removals. If your site uses OneAll’s Social Login plugin to allow members to create new accounts, Instaban will add their unique token to a list of ‘unsafe’ tokens. Integration options with OneAll are included.

Features:

  • Eliminates additional steps of searching user accounts in the WordPress admin panel.
  • Integrates with member profiles on activation with predefined hooks.
  • Optionally bans members if they’ve created an account with OneAll social login.
  • Confirmation dialog with AJAX handler is fast, safe and efficient.
  • Ability to customize button placement in your theme with a template tag.
    For integration with OneAll Social Login, you may perform a check with the user_token returned from the API response, like so:

    // from oa-social-login/includes/communication.php:

    /**

    • Handle the callback
      */
      function oa_social_login_callback () {

      //User Data
      if (is_object ($social_data)) {
      $identity = $social_data->response->result->data->user->identity;
      $user_token = $social_data->response->result->data->user->user_token;

      // verify that user token isn't associated with an unsafe login
      if ( bp_instaban_is_user_token_unsafe( $user_token, 'oa_social_login_user_unsafe_tokens' ) ) {
          header($_SERVER['SERVER_PROTOCOL'] . ' 501 Not Implemented', true, 501); // throw a 501 error
          die();  
      }   
      

      }
      }

In the above example, the server returns an HTTP 501 error. This effectively prevents the user from creating an account again with the same social network provider.
You may choose to handle it differently. In the future, OneAll may provide a hook to enable this integration without modifying the plugin directly.
