Request for admin notification

[davejo]

Hi VB,

I have another request.

When someone reports a download the only notification I get (as admin) is an email and at the bottom of the downloads settings window.

Is there anyway you could add the notification to be sent to the admin on the website in the form of an alert or PM please?

The reason I ask is that, at the moment, the email is sent to the webmaster email address but that only eventually comes to me, none of the other admins get to know about the report

thanks

The system should email all the admins but a pm is easy to do

Try this change
Open Downloads2.PHP
Find

Code: [Select]

// Then send the actual email.
sendmail($row['email_address'], $subject, $body, null, 'downloads', false, 1);

Change or add the following

Code: [Select]

// Send PM to the member
$pm_recipients = array(
'to' => array($row['id_member']),
'bcc' => array(),
);
global $txt;
$pm_from = array(
'id' => 0,
'username' => $txt['downloads_txt_pmbot'] ,
'name' => $txt['downloads_txt_pmbot'],
);

sendpm($pm_recipients,  , $subject,$body,,false,$pm_from);

Thanks VB, I'll let you know how it goes

Well unfortunately that code added had an effect on the tiny portal blocks for some reason. It also stopped the footer from showing, I tested both the default theme and others and it's the same

footer.png shows what happens with the code added, the bottom of the image is the bottom of the portal page, as you can see no footer.

the other 2 show with the code removed

Strange... Anything in your error log? Does the store still work at all?

Nothing in the error log and the Store is not used.

I just put the code in again and no the downloads didn't work either. I tried the change option this time but it still didn't work

Attach your sources/Downloads2.php

Here you go

It has been modified but those came from your suggestions

I had some typos try this file with your edits.

Morning VB

I tested it this morning and it worked...but

The link that is sent to the PM, when clicked on, does not take you to the reported files, it takes you to the 'Moderation' page.

Images attached

reports1 = the PM
reports2 = where the link takes you
reports3 = shows you the admin panel at the bottom of the page
reports4 = after clicking on the 'Files reported' link

So probably need two links in the email/pm. One to the file itself and one to moderation center to review the comment then take action.

The last image in my previous post shows the comment and the link to the download, so all we really need is the PM link to point to that, if that's possible VB

[davejo]

Any more thoughts on this VB?
