Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

Overview

About this plugin

FeenBan is a simple WordPress plugin that implements user shadowbanning (or hellbanning) for comments.

Comments by shadowbanned users will be invisible to all other users. However, the shadowbanned users will continue to see their own comments, hopefully oblivious to the fact that they’ve been shadowbanned. This is non-destructive in that changes are not made to the comments themselves.

Shadowbanned comments are still saved to the database and visible to admins in the dashboard comments listing. All that happens is that a ‘shadowban’ flag is set in the user metadata.

If you disable this plugin, showbanned comments will become visible to all users.
