Report Post links not working

[tnedator]

(Moved here from this thread - http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showt...deration-tools )

Can you give me an example of the reported post with the broken link?

The links inside the reported posts, which should bring you to the post that was reported if you click on it, instead gives you something like: vb:showthread/t=378473

Try looking at your reportpost_newthread phrase and make sure you haven't modified it at all.

I checked. That phrase has not been changed. Any other thoughts on what to check on my end?

What are the contents of that phrase? Do you have other languages installed?

No additional languages installed. The phrase is:

Standard Phrase: reportpost_newthread (id: 70463)

Varname $vbphrase[reportpost_newthread]
Text Reported Post by $reportinfo[rusername]

[Lynne]

That is not the correct phrase. Look in your Reported post forum and see what the full reported post looks like. It should look something like:

XXXXX has reported a post.

If yours doesn't look like that, then you are not using the default phrase "reportpost_newthread" - phrase type Email Body Text. That phrase should look like this:

[noparse]
[URL="http://$reportinfo[reporterlink"]]$reportinfo[rusername][/URL] has reported a post.

I was looking at the phrase in email subject, not email body. Here is the one in email body:

reportpost_newthread - email body

It's not quite the same as yours, assuming we are displaying the same phrase. I am running 3.8.6. It has not been modified, that appears to be the vB default.

Can we see exactly what a reported post looks like on your site? There is no "t=" in the link anywhere, so I don't see how your link can have a "t=" in it.

This is only an issue in the mobile app, not vBulletin itself. I have to double check the mobile app when I get a chance to see if it has the T. The part I was trying to get to was that it was showing the vb: and then a partial link, rather than an actual link you can go to.

I have to run out, can you confirm that you want the information from a reported post in vB 3.8, when the problem I was aking about was related to the mobile app only?

[Lynne]

I did not realize it was related to only the mobile app. I'll move this back to that forum, but I do think it's good to have this in it's own thread rather than the original.

So, can you clarify this... Are you saying you report a post while using the mobile app and then the link is broken in the reported post. Or, are you saying that viewing already existing reported posts while using the mobile app has the broken links?

[tnedator]

A reported post, which is reported by someone using the traditional web interface, has a broken link when you view the reported post in the mobile app. The links are all fine when viewing the same reported post via the web interface. Based on everything I have read about broken links in the mobile app after I intially posted that, I assume it's related to the mobile app having a problem with links.

I just went to the app on my site (3.8 site) and went to a Reported Post. When you first click on it, it's all text (the links just show the text). You click on anything there and then it shows just the single post with links enabled (I find this rather strange) and those are the links I am able to click on. In the first screen where no links are clickable, none of them have a vb: in front of them, nor a "t=" in them. (None should have a "t=" in them.)

On the browser site, if you go to the reported post, do any of those links have a "t=" in them?

Sorry about the confustion on the "t". I was using the broken link that someone else reported in one of the mobile threads as an example, but as I said, I wasn't sure if their was a t. I've been traveling, and haven't had a chance to check this out.

Anyway, here is what happens when clicking on a link to the right of "Post:" in a reported post in the moible app. Rather than take you to the reported post so you can take action, you get this error: the web page at vb:showthread/p=1251401 might be temporarily down..."

This is a known issue that will be fixed in 1.1
