Miscellaneous Hacks - List Reported Items

As of 23 Nov 2017 this modification has been withdrawn.

This is something we have been using for the last few years on Cable Forum, it displays a list of reported posts and reported private messages - for both staff and members to see.

The list shows ;

Reported Date/Time
Reporter (Staff Only)
Thread Title
Post Number
Actioned Date/Time
Moderator Who Actioned.

Warning: For this system to work you must have vbulletin set-up to create a new thread for each report. Installing this will disable the e-mail reporting, so until you have a report forum set, reporting will be disabled.

On the reported posts page members can click on the Actioned Moderator name to see any comment left by the moderator.

A report is considered as actioned by the first staff member to reply in the report thread. The comments are read from that first post (by default it reads anything inside quote tags).

Staff can click on the reporter to be taken directly to the report thread.

Staff Usergroups are defined in the mods settings - also the number of days to show reports for is defined in the settings.

If enabled, this will also add a link to your Quick Links or Community Links. There is also an option to prefix the link path if you use something like CMPS.

This will only list reported posts and private message's.

For this reason when u clikc the link, it goes only first post, not the reported post

It goes to the correct post for me in both FF and IE.

What exactly is 5908 ?

[AzzidReign]

Wow, this is great. I own a big board so we get tons of reported posts and this looks like it will make things much easier!

Thanks.

I think what you mean is it doesnt create seo links, which is true, something I can alter for v4.0.2

[tafreeh]

Woahh guess what.. there is no option exist to report post in postbit :@

Reporting it to vb.com

[Paul M]

Are you set up correctly ? - in vb4 if you have report to e-mail turned off, and dont have create thread enabled, then reporting is disabled.
