Moderators Functions - Pedro!'s Post Report Manager 0.93

This system offers an advanced management system for all types of reported content including:

• Posts
• Group Messages
• Group Pictures
• Profile Album Pictures
• Group Picture Comments
• Profile Album Picture Comments
• Private Messages
• Visitor Messages

Features of this hack (some of which are illustrated by the screenshots):

• Report tracking for the reporter
• Report management area accessible from the Mod CP and Admin CP
• Full integration with notifications menu
• Commenting/update system
• Ajax loading of the reported content from within the CP
• Quick links related to the report/report discussion
• Can set to only display reports that moderators have permissions to 'do something about'
• Fully phrased to allow easy translation

Installation Instructions:

1. Backup your forum database. You are installing this modification at your own risk - I will not be held responsible for any damages or losses to your computer/web server/site data/vBulletin installation that occur from trying to install/uninstall this hack.
2. Extract the files from the .zip archive
3. Open the upload directory
4. If you have changed the directory names of the Mod CP or the Admin CP from the defaults you will need to apply the same changes here.
5. Upload the contents of the 'upload' directory to the forum directory on your web server
6. When the uploads are complete go into the Admin CP and expand the 'Plugins and Products' menu on the left-hand side.
7. Click the 'Manage Products' link in the menu you just expanded.
8. Click the '[Add/Import Product]' link at the bottom of the page.
9. In the 'OR import the XML file from your server' text box change 'product.xml' to 'product-pprm.xml'
10. Click 'Import'
11. Click OK on the prompt
12. Make sure in the vBulletin Options menu under 'User Infractions & Post Reporting Options' that Post Reporting Email is not set to 'no e-mail'. Due to the core hook location of this hack it will not work if e-mailing is not enabled in the vBulletin options. However, this can be overridden on the PPRM configuration page.
13. and you're all done You may wish to change the configuration of PPRM, this can be done from the Post Reports menu in the Admin CP navigation.
14. Mark the mod as installed, this is so you can receive updates regarding the mod. I won't spam you or send you drunken e-mails lolol.

This hack is still in beta phase and I would really appreciate your feedback with any bugs/errors/design issues you encounter. Things to watch out for are compatibility issues with non-major browsers and the 'acknowledge permissions' setting not working as I've only done a very limited amount of testing on it.

The inspiration for this hack came from Distance's Advanced Post Report System for 3.6 which was an upgrade of a mod by some guy called pig, lol.

Oh, also sorry I haven't brought out any updates, I've been rather busy lately! Will be giving this hack some attention and hopefully be implementing some of the suggested features soon (including an ImpEx tool)

There aren't any rows in the pprmReports table. I don't have any other report plugins/products installed. Here's what I do have installed: http://www.grabup.com/uploads/035e3d...12a68d9ecf.png

I've reinstalled this many times but I still get the same blank page. I have no idea what's wrong :S

Maybe in a future release but I'm focusing on getting it working for existing report functions at the moment.

Oh I forgot to ask... you followed step 12 of the installation instructions, right?

Thanks pedro

Can u tell me for now that small code modifies because our forum is very active about post reports and Category Moderators should only show the reported posts in the forums they can moderate. Also SQL Error too

Have a nice days

Please make this an option. I think it is good if other mods can see what reports have been filed.

yes pedro please fix it, i want to install it too, release new version pls ^^

I would suggest disabling all other mods you are running via the plugins/products area of the AdminCP. After all others are disabled, do a test report to see if it works. If so, then go back and enable the products one by one, doing test reports in between. That way, you'll be able to tell which mod is interfering with this one. Make sense?

Hey Pedro, quick bug report... When looking at "Closed" post reports in the CP, if you click on any of the following pages, it goes to

http://www.xxxxxxxx.com/forum/mcp/pp...ow=open&page=2

Line 392 of pprm.php : $pagenav .= " <a href=\"pprm.php?$session[sessionurl]show=open&amp;page=$thispage\" class=\"normal\">$thispage</a> ";

is incorrect.. I fixed it in the interim by creating an "area" variable that is set by the case statement....

Yes right i fixed it too .

Open modcp/pprm.php

Find:

$pagenav .= " <a href=\"pprm.php?$session[sessionurl]show=open&amp;page=$thispage\" class=\"normal\">$thispage</a> ";

Change to:

$pagenav .= " <a href=\"pprm.php?$session[sessionurl]show=closed&amp;page=$thispage\" class=\"normal\">$thispage</a> ";

And also, we are waiting a fixed realase ( especially, about moderator permissions )

[joe1989]

Hopefully Pedro can include this newly reported bug in the fix!
