vB Report Manager 2.1 (Admin CP) - Report to Email, PM, Staff Forum as a new Thread!

By Dr Erwin Loh

What does this hack do?

When a member reports a post, the report goes to:

1) Email (as per normal)
2) PM
3) A new thread in your private Staff Forums
4) In the report, there will be a link to the new thread in your private Staff Forums

Or ANY of the above combination!

The thread title now has the Date/ Time of Report, Originating Forum and Reported Poster!

There is now Admin CP support under vBulletin Options - you can choose to switch on or off any of the notification methods, and set the FORUM ID for the Staff Forum you want the posts to appear in.

All you need to do is run install_vbreport.php and modify 1 file - report.php.

Update Version 2.0

1. Added Admin CP support - choose to switch on and off each notification method. Also specify your Staff Forum ID in Admin CP.

2. Added more info to the THREAD TITLE - now with NAME OF FORUM, USERNAME OF POSTER, AND DATE/ TIME OF REPORT!

Update Version 2.1

1. Fixed email option bug

2. Fixed URL parsing bug

To upgrade, it's easiest just to reinstall this hack over a CLEAN REPORT.PHP file.

Admin CP installer and install instructions in HTML file in ZIP below.
Screenshots attached.

Enjoy!

Well, that's odd. Mods of a forum WILL get a PM report if the PM option is chosen.

Erwin;

I wondered if you would be so kind to show me what to do when I want to use this hack without running the install_vbreport.php file. I don't want to add hacks that alters my database at all, in case I need official support later.

I had it working before I had to upgrade to vB 3.0.5, but you have now updated your original thread with the new system.

Thanks in advance, it's a great hack!

If you modify your report.php that would void official support anyway.

In any case, adding new option settings can be done through your Admin CP in debug mode, so it's not like it's doing anything that vB is not set out to do. If I have time I can give you code to bypass the options - it's quite simple.

True, but it is easier to just overwrite that file with a clean one, than unhacking the database.

That'd be great!

Odd...for some reason it's all working fine, except the 'reported thread' that gets created in the Reported Post forum has no id at the end of the url (the very last part of the thread).

Ie: Please respond to this post as applicable.
