    Post Reporting Discussion Forum not working

    Hi,

    I saw this option in the admincp "Post Reporting Discussion Forum". I tried to activate it to automatically create a topic in my moderation channel so th emoderation can discuss reports.
    I don't know why but it does not work... I tried setting a user having rights on the moderation channel but is not any better.

    does anyone use this option ? it seems nice.

    This feature actually isn't in vBulletin 5, but the option in the admincp hasn't been taken out yet.

    Reported posts (or 'flagged' posts, as they are now known) go into the message center, under "Flag Reports" on the left.

      OK but seriously, this is the second time I ask about a feature in the admincp and it doesn't exist in vb5.

      This is not professional at all and very frustrating, what are you waiting to clean up the admincp?

        The admincp is being gradually cleaned up. Rightly or wrongly, it isn't the highest priority, though bits are done in most releases.

        It's worth noting that the support team have no control over this.

          Do not take it personnaly, it is just you are our sole way to communicate on such things.

          It is very frustrating when you see an option in the admin panel, and you think "this would be nice", and in the end it does not work. I have to say i have never seen a software with this kind on issue, usualy when there is an option it is because it is implemented .

            I completely agree, and it's better that customers let us know as it helps us to get things pushed up the priority list.

              Well, this is actually worse thant i thought, not only the option does not work, but the mail sent when users report a post is empty when the option is activated. There is only a title (at least with the french language).

                The email should work. Does it work if set to English?

                  i can't set my whole site to english so i don't know

                  When i activate the "Post Reporting Discussion Forum" feature, the report e-mail are still being sent but with only a title and no content.
                  When i disable it the e-mail is being sent with full content as usual.

                  Since the feature does not exist it is kind of weird it has an impact on e-mail. This is just so you know, of course i ended up disabling the "ghost" feature since it has no use.
