vBulletin Mods

Report Post Icon Enhancement changes the default behavior of the Report Post link.

If a post has been reported:
- Report Post icon will be replaced.
- Report Post link will redirect to report.

BENEFITS

• Great for history and informational purposes.
• Links to post report if one exists.
• Quick and easy access for staff.

NOTE:

• Features will only display to staff.
• You must have a Post Reporting Discussion Forum (vbulletin Options / User Infractions & Post Reporting Options)

this is not working for me.

I tested it out by reporting a post on one of my members and the icon did not change to the yellow ! icon. I know I followed the directions EXACTLY. *shrug*

you must have a Post Reporting Discussion Forum

and that also affects the red/white report post icon from changing to the yellow/black report post icon?

that is correct .. if report exists the yellow icon will be visible to staff and directs them to report upon clicking

Excellent Princeton, well done m8, what a great addition!!! :)

Ps. (works brilliantly)

I like it a lot!

*FULL MARKS* Princeton

This is great! :D

Just 1 thing.

Is there anyway to have this show yellow to members,
so they know the post has already been reported but only click-able for staff?

Really good mod been looking for this for a long time :)

Thank you

Install

I love it but one thing. Is there a way to get the report icon to show in the userbit instead of next to the quote button in the thread?

Attachment 65151

you will need to change the conditionals and perhaps create new ones

you will need to move the report post code to wherever you like ... the code can be found in the postbit and postbit_legacy templates

Could you guide me how? I would likely test it and post it so you can update this mod.

There was an old hack I remember a vb2.x board was using, so when you clicked on a report button and if it was already reported, a message showed up with "This message has already been reported, thank you". I cant recall which mod it was. Maybe 0tolerance report system or alike.

To complete this mod (in my opinion), would be adding some kind of noticee for members so they know it has been reported.


Another advanced idea would be the following:

If a post has more than 3 reports, its automatically "deleted" and a notice would show up for everyone. With some other ideas that I should think of some anti abuse measures, so we can avoid members from getting organized in groups, massively reporting the same post to take it down until moderation is done.


my 2 cents.
I really like your hacks princeton, dont know why so few installs in average.

Cya

try this .. this will show reported to everyone except the original author (unless it's staff)

I tried these edits, but it didnt work. I found the first box and replaced with the second box - is that not what we are supposed to do? Please advise :)

Yes you need to replace the top code with the bottom code in both Postbit and Postbit_Legacy

I'm sure it will work then ;)

It does for me

Thanks Princeton :)

Is there anyway to make this non clickable for normal members?



.

Thanks for answering, Nathan2006, but now its half-working. All the report buttons show up yellow as if they were reported when they really arent. And since they are all showing up as already reported, it wont let me report any. Ideas?
