Actually reports a post using information specified from a form
setPreview()  : mixed
Sets Utils::$context['preview_message'] based on $this->comment.

Properties

$subaction

public string $subaction = 'show'

The requested sub-action. This should be set by the constructor.

$subactions

public static array<string|int, mixed> $subactions = ['show' => 'show', 'submit' => 'submit']

Available sub-actions.

$can_submit

protected bool $can_submit = false

Whether they can submit the report.

$comment

protected string $comment = ''

The text content of the report.

$obj

protected static object $obj

An instance of this class. This is used by the load() method to prevent mulitple instantiations.

$previewing

protected bool $previewing = false

Whether they want to see a preview of the report.

$submitting

protected bool $submitting = false

Whether they want to submit the report.

$backcompat

private static array<string|int, mixed> $backcompat = ['func_names' => ['call' => 'ReportToModerator', 'ReportToModerator2' => 'ReportToModerator2', 'reportPost' => 'reportPost', 'reportUser' => 'reportUser']]

BackwardCompatibility settings for this class.

Methods

call()

Convenience method to load() and execute() an instance of this class.

public static call() : void

execute()

Dispatcher to whichever sub-action method is necessary.

public execute() : void

exportStatic()

Provides a way to export a class's public static properties and methods to global namespace.

public static exportStatic() : void

To do so:

  1. Use this trait in the class.
  2. At the END of the class's file, call its exportStatic() method.

Although it might not seem that way at first glance, this approach conforms to section 2.3 of PSR 1, since executing this method is simply a dynamic means of declaring functions when the file is included; it has no other side effects.

Regarding the $backcompat items:

A class's static properties are not exported to global variables unless explicitly included in $backcompat['prop_names']. Likewise, a class's static methods are not exported as global functions unless explicitly included in $backcompat['func_names'].

$backcompat['prop_names'] is a simple array where the keys are the names of one or more of a class's static properties, and the values are the names of global variables. In each case, the global variable will be set to a reference to the static property. Static properties that are not named in this array will not be exported.

$backcompat['func_names'] is a simple array where the keys are the names of one or more of a class's static methods, and the values are the names that should be used for global functions that will encapsulate those methods. Methods that are not named in this array will not be exported.

Adding non-static properties or methods to the $backcompat arrays will produce runtime errors. It is the responsibility of the developer to make sure not to do this.

load()

Static wrapper for constructor.

public static load() : object
Return values
object

An instance of this class.

reportPost()

Backward compatibility wrapper for the reportMsg() method.

public static reportPost(mixed $msg, mixed $reason) : void

In theory, no modifications should ever have called this, but...

Parameters
$msg : mixed
$reason : mixed

ReportToModerator2()

Backward compatibility wrapper for the submit sub-action.

public static ReportToModerator2() : void

In theory, no modifications should ever have called this, but...

reportUser()

Backward compatibility wrapper for the reportMember() method.

public static reportUser(mixed $id_member, mixed $reason) : void

In theory, no modifications should ever have called this, but...

Parameters
$id_member : mixed
$reason : mixed

show()

Report a post or profile to the moderator... ask for a comment.

public show() : void

Gathers data from the user to report abuse to the moderator(s). Uses the ReportToModerator template, main sub template. Requires the report_any or report_user permission. Accessed through ?action=reporttm.

__construct()

Constructor. Protected to force instantiation via self::load().

protected __construct() : mixed

reportMember()

Actually reports a user's profile using information specified from a form

protected reportMember(int $id_member) : mixed
Parameters
$id_member : int

The ID of the member whose profile is being reported

reportMsg()

Actually reports a post using information specified from a form

protected reportMsg(int $msg) : mixed
Parameters
$msg : int

The ID of the post being reported

setPreview()

Sets Utils::$context['preview_message'] based on $this->comment.

protected setPreview() : mixed
