That text is within MyBB core, this plugin doesn't modify it, but you can manually edit it in /yourforumdirectory/inc/languages/english/report.lang.php

Hope it helps

what do we have to change in report.lang.php? for it to work without pop ups?

Hey there,
Could you please explain what do you mean by "work without pop ups?"

I'm experiencing an issue when the title contains an apostrophe - the ' character

I know this is is the kinda hole that allows unwanted code to run on mysql.

I'm trying to fix it myself, but you should really update this. Other than this, it appears to work on 1.6, and adds a very good feature most moderation teams should use.

Critical changes required:
- $db->escape_string( subject )
- $db->escape_string( forum name )

Also, other changes you could do:
- Cannot report a report post (it sounds silly but makes sense)
- I changed the subject to "Report: [post-subject] by [post-author]" to be more specific; the reporting-user is the author of the thread.
- Take into account "Posts in this forum increase post count." option in settings - I would think most admins would turn this option off for a hidden system such as this one. I've just commented out that section for now.

I'll have a look at it, thanks for sharing the issue!
Edit: Thank you! I updated the script, but instead of adding several $db->escape_string() I removed them all in the message template and added it in $reportedpost declaration ( "message" => $db->escape_string( $message ) ).

Thanks for the update, muchos appreciated.

UPDATE: Plugin has been updated to the version 1.1 with following changes:

• Fixed error reported by ImperfectShaun here which appeared when you had a thread subject with ' sign in it.
  
• Added support for "Count created posts towards user's post count?".

Attachment on the first page has been updated accordingly.

Experimenting a bit more and with some digging, I've updated it to use the post datahandler. It seems to be the easier, proper and cleaner way of doing it.

This also fixes a bug where the report thread didn't trigger a subscription notification.

FYI, I reformatted the report thus:

Thread subject:
OffendingUser: OffendingPostSubject

Post body:
Reported by ReportingUser because...

ReportingUser Wrote:Reason given for report.

Offending post by OffendingUser
ForumName -> OffendingPostSubject

OffendingUser Wrote:Content of the offending post.

nice
does work on 1.6?

Yep, I tasted it on the latest version, and it works fine for me

Hey there!
Mind sharing your code?

As for the thread subscription, why do you need to trigger a subscription? Personally I never thought it was required, because the mod intends to let moderators to discuss things, without interferences of users (aka users aren't supposed to see report threads => no need for a subscription), or?

That would be useful to me as I have reported posts go to a forum where members can only view/reply to their own threads. So the reported post can be discussed between the reporter and the staff.

I'm running this on 1.6 with no problems so far.
