Private Messages Enhancements - Report Bad PM

Report Bad PM for vB3.7
Version 1.0.5
(By Boofo)

What does this product do?
This mod will allow the member to report a bad PM to the the Admin or Mods that you choose to receive the report. It also has a setting to start a thread in the forum of your choice for PM reports. I don't use that option as I don't think it reporting PMs in threads is a very smart idea, but I know I will be asked to add it and since it was already there, I left it in.

Version Information:
Version 1.0.1 -- Initial release for vBulletin 3.7.0 beta 4.
Version 1.0.2 -- Fixed missing TABLE_PREFIX.
Version 1.0.3 -- Re-did the PM template to be more in line with default vB PMs.
Version 1.0.4 -- Re-did the e-mail template to be more in line with default vB e-mails. Fixed datamanager error if PM receiver was over their PM quota. Added reportpmlog file, available to Super Admins only, to view and manage Bad PM Reports via the Admin CP.
Version 1.0.5 -- Updated with securitytoken.

Note: This will now work with both the posbit and postbit_legacy templates. This now is set at ON on install as well as User ID 1 receiving the Bad PM reports.

Credits:
A big thank you goes out to Paul M for most of the re-write for this for 3.5.4. Also, I want to thank to cheesegrits for his invaluable help on fixing the datamanager error while using the quote tags in the PM messages and helping me put the finishing touches on this new version. Last but not least, thanks goes to Dismounted for his permission for the use of his code for the automatic button insert into the template. Thank you, sir.

Ok I changed the image by going to "Template: reportbadpm_button" but now how to do I get it next to Forward and Reply??

great mod but I reported a pm I had sent and it didn't say who I had sent it to.

Check your settings.

It works fine. Try going into your sent items and reporting one of your own pms. The report will leave out who the pm was sent to:

You are kidding right? Who got the PM?

Nope. The intended recipient. I'll try clarify.

Admin sends a pm to a user ('bill')

"Could you please refrain from being an ass. Any more and the mods will ban at will"

and then decides he wants to share that pm with the mods. He goes into his sent items and clicks report pm.

The subsequent report thread will say who sent the pm but not have any mention of bill.

Probably by design.

[Boofo]

Regular PMs do it the same way. That's why they are called "Private" messages.

[Boofo]

I was not upset, either at your question or your uninstalling it. Makes no matter to me. I saw the post before you deleted it by the way.

[Boofo]

You did it again. Newbies...

[punchbowl]

I'm not new. I uninstalled it because it doesn't offer the functionality I'd hoped for and I already have a report pm mod installed that works fine.

Is the "*[reportpm_manager]*" in admincp part of this mod? I uninstalled and it's still there.

You did seem upset or else you wouldn't have gone patronizing two posts ago
