Distances First Official vBulletin Release!!
THIS PRODUCT IS NOT COMPATIBLE WITH vBulletin 3.7.x and higher
What does it do?
This is better for forums which get alot of post reports, it allows staff to see the amount of post reports open and lets them review and leave appropiate comments.
Users can see there post reports made and can see the status of the report and the moderator dealing with the report.
Admins / SuperMods / Moderators can see the post reports
*Note Moderators will only see the post reports in the forums they moderate*
Moderators can see who reported the post and the time at which it was reported, and the comment given by the user. There are also links to the post itself, the thread the post is on, the forum the thread is in, the user who posted the post and the user who reported the post.
The user page can be linked anywhere you choose; I have included instructions for linking it on the quicklinks menu.
Moderators can update the status of the report, and add a comment. The user who reported the post can then see these changes reflected in their page - it will show the name of the moderator dealing with the report, the comment (if any) left by the moderator, and the time at which the report was last updated.
When a moderator sets the status of a report to 'closed', it is moved to another page in modcp called 'closed post reports'. Post reports that are in the pending state are still kept in the 'outstanding post reports' page.

Please note that since i didnt release the original i cannot give support for this modification, however i will help as best as i can
I have permission to release this port of the original
FULLY backup your site before installing this modification!! Im not responsible for any loss of data etc if you install this incorrectly or dont backup your database
Uninstall any previous releases of this hack BEFORE installing this one, failure to do so will result in database errors. *Meaning previous releases, not previous versions of my release*
This has only been tested on 3.6.4 and 3.6.5, i dont see why this wouldn't work on other versions of vBulletin 3.6.X
See next post for updates and important notes!!

Are turned off.. the post report system will disable itself. I haven't
figured out a way to get round this yet but this will be updated in v2.10
So for now make sure in: vBulletin Options -> User Infractions & Post Reporting Options
One of these two options are turned on.
Click Install if you like this modifcation
Thanks

Ok, I've used this system for quite a while. I know it isn't compatible with 3.7+ no problem. My question is: how do I get everything back to the standard vB report post functionality? Ever since I used this product, I've had incomplete reported posts. The reason never, ever, shows up.
This thing worked great for about 2 weeks, then it broke (I probably broke it). Since then, we've mumbled through reported posts when we get them. Now that activity is picking up, and a few more posts are being reported, I'd like to know why.
So, again, how do I get it back to where the reported reason shows up with the reported post? Thank you for any help
