Add reason to flag, and a comment by the user on why they are flagging an item

i think this is a great idea. have a look at http://www.newsvine.com 's flagging system. multiple reasons.

This is a good idea. What would also be nice is to have a user comment on what's wrong instead of a selection.

Either a selection or a comment or even both would be a great addition to this already great module.

Any update in this subject? It would make this excellent module just perfect!!!!!

We are in discussions with a sponsor for this feature.

Nothing firm yet, but if this materializes, the feature should be available in a few weeks.

That´s excellent news!!!
Hope everything goes as it planned!
Thanks!

I was just wondering about this very feature. Nice to see it's already being requested multiple times!

If someone wants to co-sponsor it by contributing funds, let me know.

Any (good) news about this project?

How is it planned to be implemented? A HTML form select menu with all the choices in, and a submit button?
Then some javascript could jazz it up to look like that of digg.com etc. if needed, but degrades nicely still?

Or is there a different way planned?

are there any news about this?
I Hope so!
:-)

Not yet.

Anyone willing to co-sponsor the work, please contact me.

Changing the description to better reflect what I want this feature to do.

Ideally, after clicking on "flag this", a form will be displayed with list of reasons to choose from, and a textarea to describe why this item is being flagged.

The list should be configurable by the admin.

Showing this info to the admin on the management screen would be a bit tricky, because of the sheer volume of information that needs to be displayed.

Any word on this? I think "flagged" content should not necessarily indicate negative content. For example on my site, content that is of exceptional quality may be promoted by the administrators to the front page. I think "flagging" content should be simply bringing it to the attention of the site's administration/moderation staff. If this sounds like something the community would be interested in I could make the modification and submit a patch.

is there any plans to do this for d6?

Here's a quick addition (aka: 10 minute hack ;) - I needed this for a project this morning and time was tight. It simply allows users to leave a comment / reason for flagging (if you install this please don't forget to hit http://yourdomain.com/update.php )

kbahey - I'm sorry I didn't have time to roll a patch or anything, all changes are commented with the string "2009-05-23" if you care to grep.

Cheers,

StickyTouch, I tested your version and it works perfectly. Finally a reason for the flag on D6.

An improvement would be to have the reason for the flag also mentioned in the e-mail.

Thanks!

And the reason can only contain 64 characters. Maybe a little more would be convenient.

Would love to see this feature properly integrated. A great addition to an already immensely useful module.
