Support for Drupal 7 is ending on 5 January 2025—it’s time to migrate to Drupal 10! Learn about the many benefits of Drupal 10 and find migration tools in our resource center.
Could you please clarify if the "Ban IP address of current user" is supposed to ban the I.P. address of the user(s) I've selected in my view as when I tried this, it banned my I.P. and locked me out of accessing the site as Admin (this is a live site). I correceted this by clearing the ban from the data base.
Thanks
Tony

infojunkie CreditAttribution: infojunkie commentedYes it seems that this action (that is provided by Drupal core, not VBO) does in fact ban the current IP address. I guess its purpose is to allow writing automatic rules that detect violations made by the logged in user. The rules would trigger a call to this action. In any case, it's not much use for manually-executed bulk operations.

mototribe CreditAttribution: mototribe commentedI opened this old request rather than submitting a new one. I think it would be very useful to ban the IP addresses of the selected users.
Of course I locked myself out too "assuming" it would just do that. I wish I could have seen the look on my face ;-)
thanks!

joelpittetYou are welcome to create this action as a patch or as a contrib module, though I'm not sure the use-case for including this in VBO would be at this time.
