How do you ban someone from a specific forum section ?

[dal]

In IPB 3.x it was possible to set up a custom permission set and assign it to a member to restrict access to a specific board without having to create a whole new member group solely for that one user.

In IPB 4.x however (unless I'm just not seeing it) the custom permission sets seem to be gone, so how do I do this now ?

Thank you.

Unfortunately, you will need to create a custom group with the permissions you want for this purpose

But it doesn't work as a secondary group.  The primary group permissions always govern.  That's why we used overriding permission masks previously.

There was a Ban from Forums Addon For 3.x:

Perhaps @Adriano Faria will update it for 4.x?

Ban from Topics Addon by @Tom Irons:

I would love it if you did - I use it on my 3.4.9 forum, and my mods will miss this when we go to 4.1.x...
