"BANNED" tag is harsh, options to customize?
-
Hello,
One of my group's members passed away recently. I'd like to secure his NodeBB forums account, but the only way I see to do it is by banning him. He's not banned, he's just gone. I don't want that ugly red "BANNED" flag by his name, it is disrespectful.
What other options are there to secure a user's account? Can I choose what banner they get? Can I choose to not display the "Banned" flag anywhere?
I would suggest allowing custom banners for disabled accounts, individually:
- Banned
- Inactive
- No label shown anywhere.
Thanks,
Wayne -
Does anyone have any suggestions for this? It's not urgent, but wondering what I can do myself? Even code tweaks I can do on my own?

You may be able to override this with nodebb-plugin-customize but it wouldn't be on a per-user basis.

@wayne-workman that is actually a very good idea that we can also use...
We do sometimes give people 1 week or 2 weeks "temporary" bans, which would look better if not tagged as "banned", so it is more obvious for all the users...
it would be good to have options such as "inactive" , "frozen" , "penalized" etc.
