This hack will place post reports into modcp, and enable moderators to give feedback to users via a page that users can see which includes all of their own post reports.

Post reports have three possible statuses: open, pending or closed.

When a post report is made, the report is put into a page in modcp called 'outstanding reports', and has a status of 'open'. There is a new option in admincp which governs whether or not the post report emails are sent to moderators; so if this is switched on, the emails are still sent.

Moderators can then see who reported the post and the time at which it was reported, and the comment given by the user. There are also links to the post itself, the thread the post is on, the forum the thread is in, the user who posted the post and the user who reported the post.

The user page can be linked anywhere you choose; I have included instructions for linking it on the quicklinks menu.

This system can be switched on or off from admincp. When off, the behaviour of post reports is as normal.

I've also included an optional scheduled task which will remove post reports from the system than are older than an age specified in days in admincp.

Moderators can then update the status of the report, and add a comment. The user who reported the post can then see these changes reflected in their page - it will show the name of the moderator dealing with the report, the comment (if any) left by the moderator, and the time at which the report was last updated.

When a moderator sets the status of a report to 'closed', it is moved to another page in modcp called 'closed post reports'. Post reports that are in the pending state are still kept in the 'outstanding post reports' page.
