Description

LIVE PREVIEW

Flagged Content Pro lets visitors flag, report or provide feedback about posts, pages, comments, custom post types and many other types of content. Post and comments don’t need to be patrolled anymore—let visitors find the bad ones and flag them for your review. There are a number of reasons why visitors should be allowed to flag content and communicate issues about your website:

• Posts can have broken links which were missed or information in an article may no longer be relevant
• A page containing an embed no longer works and there’s no easy way for you to scan for non-working embeds
• A comment may contain inappropriate material or a spam comment may have snuck past moderation
• A bbPress reply may be off topic or contains swear words
• A custom post type is no longer functioning correctly or has inaccurate information
• Lets your website users feel like they have a voice and that they are essential in helping your site grow
• These are just a few of many reasons that this plugin helps lighten your administrative work while keeping your content fresh and your users happy

Many non-WordPress sites use moderation systems allowing users to report broken, inappropriate or questionable content to the sites. Flagged Content Pro brings commonly used and very helpful moderator functionality to the WordPress frontend.

Flagged Content Pro automatically injects a button (or link) in the content allowing users to flag that content. Clicking on the flag button reveals a form allowing the visitor to detail the reason for reporting the content. The form presented to visitors is customizable: the user can (or must if you decide) enter a name, email, reason for flagging this content and a brief description. After submission of the form, the submission is sent to the admin side as a flag and is viewable by administrators.

Compatible with a variety of WordPress content

• WordPress builtin content – Visitors can flag the standard posts, pages, media and comments
• Custom post types – Visitors can report custom post types such as those added through Custom Post Type UI
• bbPress topics and replies – Visitors can flag topics and replies under a single topic page
• WooCommerce products and reviews – Products and the reviews within the product can be flagged
• GeoDirectory places and reviews – Places and the reviews can be reported
• Easy Digital Downloads – Visitors can flag downloads

Easy

Flagged Content Pro automatically adds the button into the content for you.

Stylize and Customize

Many different options are available to style the buttons used by visitors to flag an item. Add an icon, alter the label, change the colors of the button, change the button to a link, choose how it is placed, etc. The form presented to a visitor can capture different information and fields can be made optional or mandatory. The form fields include name, email, reason, and description.

Different forms can be used for different types of content. For example, customize the forms so visitors only need to select a reason for flagging a comment, but must enter a description when flagging a post or page.

Intuitive Backend for Admins

The admin page centralizes and lists all flags submitted for the site. The item that was flagged is shown and and can easily be viewed or edited. Information on the submitter is also included along with a date for easy sorting. Flags come in in pending status, and can be deleted to keep the list of flags page clean and organized, or they can be marked as completed for future reference.

Lightweight

Written in a way to limit processing when the plugin is not needed. Minimizes resource usage by avoiding burdening each page request with needless scripts and files.
