View Full Version : Post report notifications?

I know that for earlier versions of vbulletin there was a mod that had post report notifications sent to moderators / admin via PM instead of email. Is there something like this for vb4 yet? Or basically any method of receiving the notifications other than by email? I'm pretty sure my moderators don't want their email inboxes spammed into the ground!

Cheers.

When a post is reported it is posted in my moderator's forum.
Each time a post is created in the moderator forum I receive an email.

How did you set it up to do that?

How did you set it up to do that?I was afraid you were going to ask.
It's on my 3.8.5 forum. I gotta do some research to see how I did it.
I'm pretty sure everything is built in.

OK. vB4 has the same option.
Create a moderator's forum if you don't have one already.

AdminCP --> Settings -->Options -->User Infraction & Post Reporting Options
Set Post Reporting Discussion Forum:
Post Reporting: Email No Email

For me I have the forum set to send an email to me anytime something is posted to the moderator forum.

I'm pretty sure my moderators don't want their email inboxes spammed into the ground!Wow. You get that many reported posts? I suppose it can happen on busier boards, but if it was mine it would stop pretty quickly as we banned the frequent offenders.

I expect my moderators to take the emails and deal with the serious offenses quickly, before people start responding to them and quoting them. But all the normal stuff - maybe 1 a week - we just discuss on the Moderators forum and decide mutually on a course of action.

PS The mod that allows you to subscribe to a forum has not yet been updated to work with vb4. Not at all sure why it isn't a default option yet.

s.f.w.

Is it possible to edit the post reporting email options ? Ideally, I would only like Super Moderators, and Administrators notified. The only options I have now are moderators, or moderators, super moderators, and administrators.
