Miscellaneous Hacks - Report system enhancer

Are you bothered by the look and functionality of your report system ?

Do you want to have radiobuttons instead of the the textfield ?

Well welcome to sids report enhancer

Now you can add the entries from your infractionsystem to be shown up at report.php,
you can add own custom report reasons,
you can even make the original textfield disappear.

Now it's all in your hands

To install: import xml via product manager nothing else!!

Hope you like it
two languages available english and deutsch

[Update v 0.1.5]
- radiobuttons now above the textfield
- improved javascript
- setable delimiter between radiobutton-message and textfield-message
- removed beta-bugs

[Update v 0.2.0]
- you now can enforce users to type a message if he chose your last own custom report reason (thanks to replay's idea)

Awesome! I have been waiting for this!

I have just installed this but I need to do a few tweaks. For the report message in mail, I'd like to have it as this:

This is the reason that the user gave:
Reason: Mass PM Advertising

The user has been spamming on the board! Ban!

This message has been sent to all moderators of this forum, or all administrators if there are no moderators.

Please respond to this post as applicable.

Note that the report message has to be under the reason which is "Reason: Mass PM Advertising".

Oh also. I am trying to place to report message field INSIDER the report reasons area. Any idea how to do that?

well maybe in the next upcoming version you'll find a solution

If you try by yourself: delimiter is hardcoded to the javascript.
AND: forget about html; the original report.php will not allow html to be parsed

those change if you add or edit a new infraction to the system (acp -> infraction system)
the others (ACP ADD 1-3 in the pictures) are added directly to the system (acp-> vBulletin options ->User: Reportsystem - enhancement)

So how about I supposed to do this then? Care to explain? And how much longer until the next version is released?

Hi Snake,
just add that feature to my test.xml yesterday (just for you )

But, like I always try.. I'd like to have the xml tested before I ruin any of your forums
even if I declare it as a beta version...

you'll have to wait just another day I think

then you'll find a way of editing the delimiter, and the radiobutton-box ABOVE the textfield (what makes more sense to me)
And I've done some minor codechanges too (javascript thingy newline blabla, you know)

Just stay tuned, as soon as I update the xml in first post, You'll be informed by email
(nice vborg feature that is, isn't it... another reason to click the installed link, you'll stay up to date [giving toxic a hint *gg*])

Just let me test everything more than once, on more than one vB-version and tonight/tomorrow morning you'll have an option for the delimiter (WITH NEWLINE POSSIBILITY)

cheers
