vB Report Manager 2.0 (Admin CP) - Report to Email, PM, Staff Forum as a new Thread!

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!

Erwin,

Great hack and very useful - Thank you.

I am have one problem though...

I have all 3 options set to YES.

But it's not posting the reported post in my designated forum (ID:72)

Although I am getting emails & PM's but no thread is being created in the "reported posts" forum...

I have check and double checked the install and all is ok.

Any ideas?

Installed this, and now when I try to report a post I get this error:

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_VARIABLE in /home/****/forum/report.php on line 129

Line 129 being $moderators = $DB_site->query(" from:

PHP Code:

// Erwin's Report Hack 
++++$moderators = $DB_site->query("

Nevermind, I installed it wrong. Works great, thanks Erwin

What's with all the +++ symbols in the code? The hack works if installed as per instruction.

I installed an early version of this in June of last year on a vB 3.0.1 install.

I recently upgraded to vB 3.0.7.

I would like to upgrade to your 2.1 release.

I haven't moved the old report.php changes into the new report.php file.

Should I treat this as a brand new install?
