This modification is no longer available or supported.

This plugin modifies the reported post system to create a new thread in a pre-selected forum and disables the send of reported post e-mails. This is a port of the version run on our forums, which is based on the original Xenon hack. This is posted with his permission.

Version 2.01 is now released as a product. Download the xml file and then import it into your forum using the product manager.

Everything you need is now imported - there is also no need to edit the plugin anymore - instead you set the id of your reported posts forum in the vBulletin Options > General Settings area.

If you wish to upgrade from version 1 then delete the current plugins and template associated with this hack - then import the product - and set the forum id in the vb options.



History:

v2.01 : First Release.

No, there is no such feature.

Yes, it will post the thread wherever you tell it, no permissions are checked.

i currently use this mod and i love it... no kidding, it helps out a ton...

one quick question somewhat related...

i have the mod create a thread in a private Moderators Section and I would like to have all of my mods sent an email notification once a new reported post thread (or any thread for that matter) is created within that hidden Moderator section.

What do u guys do to handle that?

thanks a ton!

UPDATE:
I know theres a "Email Addresses to Notify When there is a New Thread" option available in the Forum Manager but it only allows 250 characters worth of email addresses to be entered... our list is getting truncated since we need more than 250 characters. is there a way to change that default?

vb 3.6 has this functionality as standard.

There is a problem now with this hack and 3.6.

A number of people, myself included, are noticing that when we have had this hack installed, and then upgrade to 3.6, then uninstall the hack fully, the vB default report system breaks...it creates the thread but not the corresponding post.

I am unsure how this can be happening since Paul's hack involved no database changes.

Even disabling all plugins and reloading the default files fails to resolve the problem.

Odd, 3.5 > 3.6 went well and is working fine for me.

All I can think of is to double check the usergroup viewing permission for the forum reported posts go in ...

Depends what you mean....

If you are running this hack and simply upgrade to 3.6, the hack carries on working. As in my case, because report threads still appeared I didn't realise anything was wrong.

However if you disable or uninstall the hack and try to rely on the default built in feature to create report threads, you might find it doesn't work properly...it creates the thread but not the post, thus giving an error if the thread is clicked.

After I upgraded I uninstalled the 3.5 hack before using it.

I'm presuming you've made the changes in the User Infractions & Post Reporting Options of course.

I've got my forum permissions setup a little different whereas the reportee can view their reported post (only) and can reply to it as well as report their own posts as this forum is also used as a member support forum.
We don't get much bad reports at our site as it's usually nipped in the bud before that happens

Forum Viewing Permissions
Can View Forum - Yes
Can View Thread Content - Yes
Can View Others' Threads - No

Post / Thread Permissions
Can Post Threads - Yes
Can Reply to Own Threads - Yes
Can Reply to Others' Threads - No

As such I don't know if I can be much help being it's working for me.

Sorry.
