Change time between reported posts

The time allowed between reporting posts is set by the vBulletin Option "Email Flood Check". Sometimes you want to have that value set to one thing (default is 60 seconds), but allow users to report posts sooner than that value. To do this, you may create a simple plugin (change 'x' to be the time you wish, in seconds, to allow between reported posts):

hook_location: global_start

PHP Code:


		
			
if (THIS_SCRIPT == 'report') 
$vbulletin->options['emailfloodtime'] = x;

Thanks Lynne, it's working great. :D Is there an easy way to modify it so that you can have different time limits for different usergroups?

Lynne

Probably just something like this:

PHP Code:


		
			
if (THIS_SCRIPT == 'report') 
{
  if (is_member_of($vbulletin->userinfo, a,b,c))
  {
    $vbulletin->options['emailfloodtime'] = xxx;  
  } else if (is_member_of($vbulletin->userinfo, d,e,f))
  {
    $vbulletin->options['emailfloodtime'] = yyy;  
  } else
  {
    $vbulletin->options['emailfloodtime'] = zzz;  
  }
}

(Not tested.)

Wow, quick reply, thanks. So as far as replacing....

a,b,c = first set of usergroup IDs
xxx = sets time for first set

d,e,f = second set of usergroup IDs
yyy = sets time for second set

zzz = default time for usergroups not defined?

Is that correct?

Lynne

Yes, that is correct. If you have some specific usergroupids and times, I can try to write it for you.

Great. Because I tried and it didn't seem to work out for me. I just want 5,6,7 (mods and up, though I think admins are exempt anyway right?) at 0/no limit. And all others at 30s. I think I messed up by trying to remove the second group (else if).

Lynne

Try this:

PHP Code:


		
			
if (THIS_SCRIPT == 'report') 
{
  if (is_member_of($vbulletin->userinfo, 5,6,7))
  {
    $vbulletin->options['emailfloodtime'] = 0;  
  } else
  {
    $vbulletin->options['emailfloodtime'] = 30;  
  }

}

That worked great thanks. I was missing "else."

Any idea how to make this apply to blog entries too?

I would think you could just change THIS_SCRIPT from 'report' to 'blog_report'. I do not have a vB3 blog to try this out on, however.

Thanks, works fine for us as well.

Yes, I can see huge problems if users have to wait 61 seconds to report a second post. :)

It's just php, so the php code should work. However, the global_start hook location is deprecated, so you'll need to pick another and may need to globalized $vbulletin.

Okay, thanks!

M.C.	06-27-2013 06:34 PM

Hi! is there way to limit it by X per day or so...? thanks! (I need it for 4.2)

Lynne

06-28-2013 03:58 PM

Not by using this plugin, no. You would need to code your own plugin to do that.

M.C.	07-02-2013 06:38 PM

thanks! but... :( need some help!

Lynne

This is not the place to ask for help with that. Please post in the appropriate forum if you need help writing a plugin.
