The OSBlocks extension prevents users who don't have the right to block other users from reading Special:BlockList or Special:AutoBlockList. This is not a secure filter since they can get the same information via the API or several other techniques.

Installation

• Download and place the file(s) in a directory called OSBlocks in your extensions/ folder.
• Add the following code at the bottom of your LocalSettings.php file:

  wfLoadExtension( 'OSBlocks' );
  

• Done – Navigate to Special:Version on your wiki to verify that the extension is successfully installed.
