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.

You won't see them in the PMs with the Send Reports via PM set to No. As far as the forums, you need to set the Usergroups that are allowed to see them to show up. The User ID is only for PMs. You can't do it both ways. Either forums or PMs.
I see someone asked a similar question, but I don't quite understand the answer. Here are my settings:

My other fields are blank, except for my 'Send Reports via Forum' field which is filled with an ID. I want PM reports to show up in the staff forum only, and not be PM'd or emailed to anyone; is this possible?
Make sure the forum ID is correct. That is the most common problem I have come across. What is not working? I just re-tested the forum part of it on my site (I don't use it for that) and it worked fine. And those settings would be correct for what you want.

You still need to either put in a usergroupid or userid - that's where I went wrong at first. It won't pm them if you don't have send pm ticked to yes, but you still need to enter that in there anyway. Hope that helps.
