    hi Brajesh,

    I’m having an issue on my site where people are abusing the moderation “report” facility. I’m using version 1.0.7

    It’s possible I’ve missed the obvious “select user groups to permit to use report” backend setting, but is there a way to restrict usage of the report facility to specific user groups. Eg; member_of_moderators_group, or similar?

    Many thanks in advance

    R.

    Hi Richard,

    Thank you for the question.

    We do have a filter

    bpmts_user_can_report

    That return a boolean to enable the user to report. By default, It is true. Please filter on this and return false for the users who should not be able to report.

    Regards
    Brajesh
