Allow "reason" to member for thread rejection, same as user rejection

[beerForo]

Rejecting a thread does not have the reject reason and notify like a user rejection does

This

^Needs (Delete with reason/Notify)

Like:


And for official add-on content if not there (MG/RM).

My add-on adds unapprove notify:

Unmaintained - [OzzModz] Moderation Notifier

Adds the ability to send alerts and email notifications when threads or post are approved or rejected. Sending email notifications is configured in the forum email settings Supported notifications when approving / rejecting forum topics and...

We don't do a lot of thread moderation but will be doing more in future and, no offense to Painbaker who has a done a good thing, I think this should be core, not a $10 add-on.

 

[beerForo]

I agree, I appreciate the add-ons and work put into them. And it does show the need to fill a void in core.

but will be doing more in future

I can see an uptick in this with the new article format.
"Feel free to submit an article and we will consider it for publication"

My planned article forum is one place I am going to be enabling content moderation for sure. And some other controls as well.

I hadn't even noticed it was missing from posts, thought it was just threads. Good point!

I marked it in the picture. Reason for deletion cannot be added to unapproved messages. This is a big deficiency. How will the member whose message has been deleted know for what reason? The reason for deleting the unapproved message must be.

 

[beerForo]

I think with the new thread types this is even more imperative. "I am sorry this article does not conform to the guidelines posted for publishing articles. Please see bullet #3 and feel free to re-submit." Etc, etc.

@beerForo

Any chance you found an addon for this?

We really need a way to reject content rather than deleting it, ideally giving the member the opportunity to correct the issue and resubmit it.

Something like this:

1. Member content added to Approval Queue.
2. Content is rejected (moderator includes the reason). Content is removed from the Approval Queue.
3. Member receives a rejection alert (along with the reason). A messageNotice note is also added to the content.
4. Member edits content to comply with the rules. Upon saving it will be resubmitted to the approval queue.
5. See #1.

I'm looking through some of @Ozzy47's addons now. Some are really close, such as the notification one, but not quite there.

Haven't looked in awhile.
