Report Improvements by Xon 2.20.3

[Brettflan]

Just grant the "view post report" permission via a user-group to all moderators which will let them see all post reports. Using the content moderator option only grants this permission per-forum.

That's the problem. I don't want moderators of specific forums to see all post reports. Without this add installed, they see just reports for their forums. WITH this addon installed, they see all reports for every part of the overall forums. Not desirable, they shouldn't see reports that aren't within their purview.
I do assign a usergroup along with the moderator permission set. The only other specific moderator permissions I set are within the "Forum moderator permissions" section, for the forum(s) they're moderator of.

Since you mentioned the "view post report" permission, that does get set by default for this addon on the usergroup they're assigned to. If I disable that permission, then they can no longer see ANY reports at all. Including ones within the forums they moderate. Also obviously not desirable.

So again, without this addon, things work as I'd expect, moderators see only relevant reports. With this addon installed, either they can see all reports, or they see none whatsoever, depending on that permission you just mentioned.

In that case you need to just grant the "view post report" permission for the target forum for the moderators. The setup code should have applied that permission for forums they can issue warnings for.

Ah, thank you, that does indeed work. Between messing with usergroup permissions and moderator permissions trying to figure out why those moderators could suddenly see every report, I must have missed the winning combination there.
With that permission removed from the usergroup (which got default added to the group, I assume based on some other existing permission), and properly set in the moderator permissions (which as you say was indeed properly default added to existing moderators), it is again correctly displaying only the reports those limited moderators.

Thanks!

Does this have the possibility for the reporter to select from a small (drop down?) list of reasons for the report?
With different categories of reports being directed to relevant moderators?

ie

Fraud warning
Harassment / bullying
Political / religous discussion

Thank you...

 

[Xon]

That currently isn't supported, as @TickTackk has this addon;

Report Reasons

Mar 16, 2020

Let users select why they are reporting content.

• TickTackk
• reason report
• Add-ons [2.x]

 

[H00lio]

Thanks

So the two add ons could be used in combination?

 

[Xon]

To the best of my knowledge they are compatible
