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!

Hey MetalGearMaster, to get around that, I made a Supermod the mod of all the Catagories

This would work for an Admin or a regular mod as well, Just make them the mod of the Catagory, then bingo, works like a champ

I installed it. It was a pain in the ass having to go through and add a bogus mod to each forum but I appreciate the work you did on it.

In the first post it says that the admin will be PMed if no mod exists.... does that even work?

That's just the default message in vB3.

[MGM]

ahhhh...... i knew that

lol, smods modding all of my forums would work..... or maybe my newly created Pmods

MGM out

[wrongful]

Could someone tell me what to take out to stop the reported post from being emailed and PMed to me? At least the PMs because I find this kind of redundant.

Ok nevermind I figured out what step to take out.

Hmm, 'Search Index' isnt getting updated after new thread/post now, is it? It would be a good idea to add the funtion.

PHP Code:

require_once('./includes/functions_databuild.php');
    build_post_index($post['postid'], $foruminfo, 1, 0); 


is the above code correct?

Ensure a MODERATOR is assigned to every forum.

Presumably you can add moderators to parent forums, so that this hack works. If I find time I may fix this, but not at the moment.

here a fix for your hack. With it all works correct with no moderators set on a forum....

replace:

	if (empty($mods) OR $foruminfo['options'] & $_FORUMOPTIONS['warnall'])
	{
		// get admins if no mods or if this forum notifies all
		$moderators = $DB_site->query("
			SELECT user.email, user.languageid
			FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "user AS user
			INNER JOIN " . TABLE_PREFIX . "usergroup AS usergroup USING (usergroupid)
			WHERE usergroup.adminpermissions <> 0
		");

		while ($moderator = $DB_site->fetch_array($moderators))
		{
			$mods[] = $moderator;
		}
	}

with:

	if (empty($mods) OR $foruminfo['options'] & $_FORUMOPTIONS['warnall'])
	{
		// get admins if no mods or if this forum notifies all
		$moderators = $DB_site->query("
			SELECT user.email, user.languageid, user.userid
			FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "user AS user
			INNER JOIN " . TABLE_PREFIX . "usergroup AS usergroup USING (usergroupid)
			WHERE usergroup.adminpermissions <> 0
		");

		while ($moderator = $DB_site->fetch_array($moderators))
		{
			$mods[] = $moderator;
		}
	}

, user.userid is new.
