Ban and suspend users from Filament v5. Add actions to your user resource; middleware blocks the panel, API, and login when an account is banned or suspended.

#Requirements

#Installation

composer require muazzambuilds/filament-ban

Publish the config and migration:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag=filament-ban-config
php artisan vendor:publish --tag=filament-ban-migrations
php artisan migrate

#Setup

#1. Add the trait to your user model

use MuazzamBuilds\FilamentBan\Concerns\Bannable;

class User extends Authenticatable
{
    use Bannable;
}

#2. Register the panel plugin

use MuazzamBuilds\FilamentBan\BanPlugin;

public function panel(Panel $panel): Panel
{
    return $panel
        ->plugin(BanPlugin::make());
}

This attaches auth middleware so banned / suspended users cannot use the panel (and are logged out).

#3. Protect API routes

Route::middleware(['auth:sanctum', 'banned'])->group(function () {
    // …
});

Login is blocked automatically via Laravel’s Validated auth event — no custom login page required.

#4. Add actions to your user resource

use MuazzamBuilds\FilamentBan\Actions\BanAction;
use MuazzamBuilds\FilamentBan\Actions\SuspendAction;
use MuazzamBuilds\FilamentBan\Actions\UnbanAction;
use MuazzamBuilds\FilamentBan\Actions\UnsuspendAction;

public function getRecordActions(): array
{
    return [
        BanAction::make(),
        UnbanAction::make(),
        SuspendAction::make(),
        UnsuspendAction::make(),
    ];
}

Or on a table:

->recordActions([
    BanAction::make(),
    UnbanAction::make(),
    SuspendAction::make(),
    UnsuspendAction::make(),
])

#Behaviour

Blocked users:

• Cannot log in (validation error with ban/suspend message)
• Are rejected from Filament panels (plugin middleware)
• Are rejected from routes using the banned middleware (API-friendly JSON 403)

#Model API

$user->ban('Spam');
$user->unban();
$user->suspend(now()->addDays(7), 'Cool down');
$user->unsuspend();

$user->isBanned();
$user->isSuspended();
$user->isAccessBlocked();

Query scopes: User::banned(), User::notBanned(), User::suspended(), User::accessBlocked().

#Config

// config/filament-ban.php
'user_model' => 'App\\Models\\User',
'logout' => true,
'api_status' => 403,
'web_redirect' => null, // route name or path; null throws AuthenticationException
