    Thank you rajeevan for this new release, but it seems there is a problem when use the manual way as after put the code the form appear but there is no ajax effect appeared and this sentence always visible without any action (Processing your request, Please wait…), in the same time when try to post a report the whole page refreshed with no effect.(use firefox 3.5 browser)

  2. Peter says: on 15 July, 2009 at 6:35 pm

    After another check, there is another problem with “Automatically Attach” when activated (Yet Another Related Posts) Plugin, as the report form repeat it self under related posts.

    • I will check with (Yet Another Related Posts) and Theme Editing issue… I will update you when I got them working.

    • Hey Peter, I’ve updated to Fix This manual Theme Edit Issue. It should be fixed now.

      I’ve also tested with (Yet Another Related Posts) plugin, It seems to be working fine. This plugin don’t conflict with (Yet Another Related Posts), If you say that Report Post Link repeating Twice, it maybe related to Manual Theme Option. Please check your Theme and Make sure you removed < ?php wprp() ?> from that you might have added earlier!

      If you still Having trouble, let me know. I will get back to you asap.

    Thanks rajeevan, but it seems that the problem still exist. the ajax problem didn’t solved as i see also the related post plugin conflict also. i test it on more than a theme even the wordpress default theme and the same result, and for note about (Yet Another Related Posts) i use manual code () so be sure you test it on posts not pages and choose (Show excerpt)option from the plugin option, and about the report form it’s repeating after every relate post, it’s like the (WP-ReportPost plugin) read every relate post as a single post (as a separate article) so it’s repeating the report form after every relate post.

    • Peter, Sorry I made a Mess in wordpress SVN and this plugins Javascript files and CSS files went missing! I’ve update that. Please download and replace all existing files again.

      I know why Yet another Related plugin issue occur, because It uses Show Excerpt. When it try to show you the Excerpt, It will APPLY the FILTER “the_contents” to excerpt contents, WP-REPORTPOST is hooked onto this “the_contents” action, so Whenever Yet Another Related Post Invoke this filter WP-REPORTPOST is also Invoked.

      Simpler solution for it to do it Manually By Editing Theme. This will STOP WP-REPORTPOST from invoking when “the_contents” called.

      Give it a try and let me know.

    Great plugin Rajeevan, however, I’ll getting the Ajax isn’t working correctly. The whole report box, processing text, and finished box are showing up without hitting the report button. The previous version was working without a problem though. (Problem on all 3 of my blogs with different themes)

    • Mike, Please do Update to the Latest one… Everything should be fixed now… It was some issue with SVN didn’t take my assets folder! I re-updated anyway!

  5. Peter says: on 16 July, 2009 at 8:09 pm

    Excellent work Rajeevan, the manual code work great now.

  6. Thanks for the great plugin, Did you fix the problem with Sexybookmarks plugin?

  7. Hey, What was the issue you were facing? I’ve just downloaded Sexybookmarks and it lead me to install Twitter Friendly Links as well!

    But after setting up, Both My plugin and Sexybookmarks seems to be working just fine! Can you explain what exactly the issue?

  8. Ver 1.2.2 has seemed to fix the issue. Thanks :)

    FYI: The issue was with and tags in post content.

  9. Raman says: on 26 July, 2009 at 7:37 am

    Hi Rajeevan :)

    The plugin is working great :D

    A request though :P .. can a captcha verification be added to the report form? I have been spammed already with zillion reports from bots :( :(

  10. Mike says: on 28 July, 2009 at 1:06 am

    Thanks Rajeevan, works great now. However, I noticed that Google and other search engines are indexing every file of the plugin. Is there a way to block search enginess from crawling within the wp-report folder?

  11. Hi rjeevan. Your plugin its great and very useful but it has an incompatibiility issue with WP-Polls so i can’t use it.

    There is a solution?

    Cheers
    Maxi from Argentina.

  12. Hello Rajeevan,

    Is there a method to have 2 of these boxes at the end of posts. Each with different textual content?

  13. I had established another website related to art. I added your plugin in there and it has conflicted with image’s caption. I am not sure if there is a solution for that. you can check it out and get idea what I am talking about. your plugin is so awesome.

    • It may caused by attaching automatically! Because it uses the “the_content” filter to attach it’s self to the Post contents this could caused… I will see how can we resolve this problem and update you soon…

  14. hello great plugin just what i was looking for i have a question

    is there any way i can change color of how it looks my theme is black and this plugins shows up in white any way of editing this?

  15. sorry for the bump it looks like this

    http://i28.tinypic.com/6pyyrs.jpg

    • This plugin has it’s OWN CSS in WP_PLUGIN/wp-reportpost/assets/wprp.css folder, You may edit it to suite your Colour scheme. Unfortunately, I didn’t provide any Interface to edit it via Admin!

  16. I have the same issue, as Shery the [caption] tag doesn’ work!

  17. Hello Rajeevan,

    The “Report this Post” text automatically picks up the .css link formatting from the stylesheet of the theme. (Blue underlined Link)
    How can I change that so the “Report this Post” does not get underlined? I want to give it it’s own css to follow instead.

    Any ideas?

    • Please do edit the CSS in plugin folder. Should be located in
      WP_PLUGIN/wp-reportpost/assets/wprp.css
      You can edit this css to Customize look and feel..

      • Hi Rjeevan,

        I am tyring to remove the underlining the “Report This Post” picks up from my theme .css. I tried editing wprp.css to somehow have the text of this plugin follow different “link” rules. I like the current color, but just need to remove the underlining.

        How can we do this? Thank You!

      • Omar, try imposing !important in your css.

        Your CSS would look alike (or try adding this to end of wprp.css):

        .wprp_report_link a, wprp_report_link a:visited{
        text-decoration: none !important;
        }
        .wprp_report_link a:hover{
        text-decoration: none !important;
        }

        hope this helps!

      • Perfect! Thank you rjeevan!

  18. sorry to bother you again. My other website is in serious need help. I had updated WP version from 2.7.1 to 2.8.4 and had automatically upgraded this plugin, too. Now it doesn’t work anymore. I cannot use this plugin in http://www.visualvlogs.com anymore. Also when I am logged in, I cannot see videos but html codes.

  19. I tested to deactivate the plugin and the videos are back to normal. What can I do to fix it?

    • I’ve tested this version with latest WordPress (2.8.4) and working just fine… Ir may caused by conflicting scripts by other plugins and theme… could you provide more information about other plugins you are using and what theme you are using. Also From which version of this plugin did you Updated?

      And What error or problem it causes?

      • I am currently using inove theme. I have too many plug ins. I had upgraded the WP reportpost from 1.1.1 that only works 2.7.1 or below to 1.2.2 version. I am not sure what caused error or problem. Here the list activated plugin lists.

      • You need check on viper quicktags because It has conflicts with this plugin, so I can’t use this plugin until it is fixed.

  20. “This plugin has it’s OWN CSS in WP_PLUGIN/wp-reportpost/assets/wprp.css folder, You may edit it to suite your Colour scheme. Unfortunately, I didn’t provide any Interface to edit it via Admin!”

    thanks for the reply i dont know alot of php or css can you instruct me on what or how do i need to do this if you can thanks

    • You more likely to change Background Colour, Border and font colour. Open the CSS called “wprp.css” located inside this plugin folder/assets/.

      Find All color property and change as you like (In your case, I think white would be good and background colour as Dark colour to suite your theme.)

      Find all background and change its colour to your required background colour.

      Also find border:1px solid #d9e4ef; and change the colour (#d9e4ef) to your own Border colour.

      Hope this helps!

  21. thanks worked well great plugin got to say

    • Hi Rjeeven,

      This is a great plug-in and I was wondering if there is a way to use the toggle functionalty of the form with different fields? An idea would be to install two versions of wp-reportpost v1.2, and rename one of them perhaps, and end up with 2 different report sections on the dashboard?

  22. Hi Rjeevan,

    Any thoughts on my last idea?

    Thanks!

  23. huzeyd says: on 31 August, 2009 at 1:09 pm

    Hi Rjeevan,
    Thanks for this great plugin,
    But i have a problem,
    i ve selected manually edit and added code but,
    When i click Report, nothing change. only this text “Processing your request, Please wait….” appears but never finishes this processing.
    Much Obliged

    • Try and access the Ajax file Directly… Some webhosting limit Execution Rights to this Ajax file in Plugin Folder (www.domain.com/wp-conten/plugins/wp-reportposts/ajax.php) If display and EMPTY page, it’s all fine and should work… Otherwise You will have to Move the AJAX file to your Root and Edit some codings to make it work!

  24. Hello Rjeevan,

    I would like to know if you could make the plugin with an option to “disable AJAX” so if I want just pure HTML, that I can use it without having to utilize AJAX.

    Also, I would like to see captcha integration, so that user’s and spam bots don’t utilize this to spam the site administrators.

    • thanks for the comment, I will see if I could make it Ajax free in next version… I’m already testing one with Captcha… But It’s very limited. It require to Have it’s own Captcha Generator, Can’t use the Pubic once exists on other sites… So people who is hosting websites on shared hosting environment and Don’t have GD Image Library installed will be stranded! But there isn’t much of a choice. will see…

  25. Hello,

    How do I make it appear to the left-hand side? The current setting showing the report post on each page at the right-hand side.

    Thanks.

    Regards,
    Eric

    P/S: Thanks for the plugin. I found it very useful.

    • You have to Edit the CSS file included in the Plugin Folder… wp-reportposts/asses/wprp.css This CSS Text align the Link to Right, Simple left align it!

  26. Ola,
    thanks for this plugin, its simple and useful but……………..

    ist it possible that the report function is only visible when you look inside a article and not on the main index??
    I hope you understand what I mean……………..

    • Yes, but you will have to Edit your Theme! In Options for this Plugin, Select it as Manual and Save…
      Edit your theme and call < ?php wprp();?> to include it in “Single.php” file…. Should work… If you find any problems let me know I will see what I can do!

  27. Yeaaaah, many thanks for this simple solution…………….now it works like we want.

  28. I love this plugin!

    Have done since you first released it and even linked to you somewhere along the line.

    However recently i am encountering an error of some sort.

    Nobody can report any posts. The plugin is active. From a viewer’s point of view the drop down menu appears. they select the error and report it.

    However the report is not appearing in the report section admin side. It’s getting lost somewhere along the way. Any ideas?

    • Hey, I just checked your Site. It seems that you removed the Description BOX from the Form…

      If you do that, You will have to Edit Javascript to Support his change as well…

      Edit the Javascript in assets folder (inside this plugin) and change the following line:
      var desc=form.description.value;
      to
      var desc='';
      Thats is! it should work Just fine!

      • You my good sir..are a genius!

      • You really need to sort yourself a donations plug.

        Your plugin has made life so much easier for me as you can no doubt guess.

        I have over 13,000 episodes/films on my site and nobody can possibly check each one every day to see if the link still works or not. I rely heavily on user input and this plugin has made that possible!
        Not to mention the fact you replied with a fix within minutes! excellent customer service :P

        I would be more than happy to make a donation towards your work.
        Granted my site doesn’t pull many viewers to make much money but i’d gladly donate a slice of the slim profits your way as this plugin is vital to the site’s survival.

  29. Hi, Great plugin what i´m looking for some time, but i have a conflict with other plugin: WPAudio
    I let active for you can see it.
    Waiting for a solution, and thank you very much!!

    Best Regards,

    Hi
    I am using your plugin on my video website , and it is really good one I use it to report unworkking viedos on my website .
    But there is just a missing feature if you could add it to the newest version. I when I check the reported posts in control panel I wish if you can also add a link to the post also “not only editing it” it will be very helpful
    and thanx again

  31. Im trying to add the Report this post to the right of three other fields, go to comment, leave a comment, rate this post, and then report this post. They are all in one div, so have all the same css, but when I link the report this post with its manual code:

    It goes on a different line under, instead of staying on the same line like the other fields. I think that is because the manual link has a few divs within each other. I tried to float it right, while the rest floats left, but it does not align, and it if does, it jumps down from its current location when toggled, how can we fix this?

    • Omar, Can see what you are Trying to do? do you have the website running or can you take some screen shots and send me via Email at contact [@] rjeevan.com. THat would help me with understanding the problem..

  32. My blog go crazy when i install the plugin.

    Check this http://i37.tinypic.com/wakj95.png

    Help please :(

    Hi everyone, fantastic plugin!

    I just have one question, i need to remove the comment box from the report form so that it only displays a dropdown list of issues to report. I do not want any user to type in anything.

    If i can get it like this i will happily donate. Thanks in advance.

  34. hey really nice plugin i m tryin to add this in my single.php theme file i added but it gives me fatal error what should i do to fix it?

    thx

  35. the single already has loop in it or should i add another loop for this? sorry for this noob question

  36. Hi guys,

    anyone found a fix to the video issues,

    I am using vipers video tags and it doesnt work with this plugin, works as soon as I deactivate it.
    can you point me to a solution or something,

    Thanks!

  37. Mortada says: on 28 October, 2009 at 11:43 pm

    HI ,
    Thankd for the plugin, however It conflicts with the viper video quicktag plugin. Any way to fix it ?

    Thanks

  38. Monster says: on 30 October, 2009 at 8:09 am

    Dude, is there anyway that I can change the font size used?

    BTW, by far this is one of the most important plugin every webmaster should have. Thanks.

    • You can edit the CSS file located inside asset folder (wprp.css). There is a wrapper for the form, apply whatever font size you like and it would update. If in any case it’s failed, Try adding !important next to font size..

  39. Perfect for me!!!!!

    Thank you very much ;)

    Now all is working and plugin activated ;)

    Regards,

  40. Hi rajeevan,

    Would it be possible in a future version of WP-ReportPost to (optionally) require reporters to enter their email address?

    Reason is: sometimes we get reports which are not very meaningful or we need additional info, but we have no good way to get back to these reporters since we don’t know their email address.
    I would love this plugin to have an extra form field in the report form to require people to enter a (valid) email address and use this email address as the From: field in the actual email report (and store it in the database along with the actual report). Sort of like how the normal comment form and email notification works.

    • Yes, But I don’t think many would like that! I Receive lots of email on HOW to REMOVE existing optional comment box!!! Your requirement is specific, and can be done individually… If you are up for it! let me know I will be glad to guide you though!

  41. Hello,
    I was very glad to find your plugin as it was something I was searching for a long time in WP. But… I found the choices you made for styling not easy to use in a template. I made my changes in the css file but maybe it could be nice to make changes directly in the style.css file so when updating the plugin, the settings are not lost (I know some plugins offers this option: there is a css file in the plugin but it’s possible to overide it editing the style.css file).
    Last thing but important: do you plan to create a .pot file so non english speaking people may read the output (and the admin part too :-) ). I will be glad to create a french translation (the plugin I use for the translations http://www.code-styling.de/english/development/wordpress-plugin-codestyling-localization-en).
    Thank you again for this good work.

    • In next releases, I will include language. I guess it would make like much Easier to translate!
      Thanks you for your Offer on French Translation, I will Let you know When I get English POT done! Give me some time, i’m bit busy now with my Final Year Studies!!!!!

  42. HI Admin, is there a way to remove the ‘report’ link on main index page? I only want it to be showed on all single post page

    • Yes, You can. But need to Edit (Add) code in plugin file..

      Edit: main.php
      Add the Following Code at LINE Number 35 (Above ‘//Load all option‘ and Bellow ‘return;‘)
      if(is_home()) return;

      It would look alike:

      33: if(is_admin() || is_feed()) // Again to check FEEDS
      34: return;
      35: if(is_home()) return;
      36: // Load all options
      37: $rp_page = (int) get_option("rp_page");

  43. Hey RaJeevan,

    First of all, great plugin!

    I have a question regarding Firefox though. I noticed in V1.2.3, the AJAX aspect of it doesn’t quite work in Firefox 3.0. Any ideas?

    Here’s what it looks like:

    http://i34.tinypic.com/53vlli.jpg

    I did make some edits in the CSS and it works perfect in Chrome.

    • Okay, I’ve done some troubleshooting and found that when I’m logged in the code works just fine in BOTH browsers. So it’s not the browser’s problem (sorry!). But when I’m logged out, the code does not work and does not even report (for both browsers)!

      Thanks,
      Ross

    • Okay, sorry if I’m posting too much but I looked into it a little more and am really confused.

      When I’m NOT logged into wordpress, it acts as though nothing is referenced right regarding the plugin. Meaning the invalid image icon [X] comes up for loading.gif, CSS styles aren’t applied etc. I looked at the source and the img links to /wp-content/plugins/wp-reportpost/loading.gif

      BUT

      When I’m logged in, everything works perfect. I checked the code again and it still links to /wp-content/plugins/wp-reportpost/loading.gif which doesn’t even exist because it’s actually in /assets/loading.gif.

      So I took it a step further and moved all the files to /wp-reportpost/ and now the loading gif works but nothing else. :(

      Any ideas?

      • Okay! I need some more information about what version of wordpress (is it MU). Plugin will work fine with or without admin Login as it’s not require any admin level or logged access. It has its work database connection (using wordpress database core files)…

        I also need to know when you see your pages as regular user (Not logged in), In your Source code; Do you see wprp.css and wprp.js is added to headers. Try accessing them using the URL directly (Just copy the URL from source and open it in new browser windows). If Javascript and CSS are working, you don’t have to worry about moving files and urls… Javascript will correct the Loading.gif url later on process…

        Let me know and I will update you soon…

      • *** Also, Can you check your Settings for wp-reportpost and make sure that “Users Only” is Not selected… If so, only logged-in users can see the form!

  44. Well ReJeevan!

    That solved my problem, your support for this plugin is wonderful !! Can you link us to the donation page? I think your work / support is worth some money!

    • Glad to hear its working now :)

    It possible enable this plugin also for the “archive.php” page?
    At this time, I see “report” link at bottom of every excerpt in an archive page.
    But if I would report an error of the “archive page” and not of the “post insert in archive page”, how can I do it?
    Tnx

  46. Dennis says: on 9 December, 2009 at 5:28 pm

    I have a problem. The plugin interferes with other JQuery stuff i have on the front page

    How do i limit the plugin to only load on posts (single)?

    I’ve tried putting
    if(is_single()) {
    [PLUGIN CODE GOES HERE]
    }
    else {
    [BLANK SPACE]
    }

    Didn’t work out.

    • Do you have “single.php” in your theme? if so, you could do it manually by editing the Theme “single.php” file..

      • Okay, I solved the problem.

        The plugin adds something like

        and jquery to the header.
        So the problem was in the header. The code (for some reason) was interfering with my front page.
        So I basically limited it by editing the code in the plugin

        Example:
        function add_header_code_thing {
        if(is_single()){
        echo ‘blablabla’
        }
        }

  47. Hello,

    I try your nice plugin.
    But when I clic on “send” I have this message :

    Fatal error: Call to undefined function wp_category_checklist() in /homepages/30/d298766669/htdocs/wp-content/plugins/wp-reportpost/settings.php on line 228

    someone else have this probleme ?

    My config :

    Wp 2.8.6
    ReportPost V1.23
    Thème : channel

    Thx

    • Hello, I think this issue i some what related to file names conflict… Try this!
      Connect to your site through FTP and rename the “settings.php” in “wp-reportpost” folder to “wprpsettings.php”. and see if it works! If it does, than you will have to edit, other page to reflect the Name change! Let me know and I will update on how to?

  48. Hi,

    I try your solution : rename the “settings.php” in “wp-reportpost”, but I have this message : Warning: require_once(/homepages/41/d264656524/htdocs/wp-settings.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /homepages/41/d264656524/htdocs/wp-config.php on line 84

    Thx

    • This should be happening, Your PHP script is reporting that “wp-settings.php” is missing. Which should be on your Wordpress ROOT folder and you shouldn’t do anything there! You only change the “settings.php” name in “wp-content/plugins/wp-reportpost/” folder.

      Do the full change an try,
      Rename "settings.php" to "wprpsettings.php"
      Edit "main.php" and Change the Line 281
      add_submenu_page( dirname(__FILE__)."/new-reports.php", 'Settings', 'Settings', 8, dirname(__FILE__)."/settings.php");
      to
      add_submenu_page( dirname(__FILE__)."/new-reports.php", 'Settings', 'Settings', 8, dirname(__FILE__)."/wprpsettings.php");

      This should work like charm!

      • Hi rajeevan,

        Thank you for your reply.

        So, I tried your solution and it works without editing the ligne 281.

        I have just replaced “settings.php” name in “wp-content/plugins/wp-reportpost/” folder, by “wprpsettings.php”.

        Do I have to change the ligne 281 anyway ?

        Regards

      • Its me again ^^

        I have changed the ligne 281 too beacause, after the modification, when I go in Wp board and clic on “settings” of Reports, the file file was missing :)
