    Hi, I don’t see any feature to be able to flag postings. It maybe necessary to have a flag this posting option in the listing where the public can write to the administrator to flag any posting.

    For now, I don’t post right a way. I first send the posting to draft to approve, but once it has been approve the person posting can change the posting, word content and pictures and if anything inappropriate gets posted there is way for me to know unless I get flagged and there is no flagging mechanism that I see.

    Is there a way to put a flagging in the details page? or is this not supported by current design?

    Thank you.

    Hi,
    The issue you pointed at is closed to new updates due to inactivity and it says to open a new issue.

    Any ways, I did follow the instructions there by installing the ‘Report Content’ plug in. It works fine only that when it sends the email the email is from “WordPress”. I could live with that but if there is way to change “WordPress” to my company name that would be much better.

    I selected the system to send email to both admin and client. The mayor problem that I see with the email being sent to the client is that it has two links, one link to ‘View the Article’ and the other to ‘Edit the article’. There is reason to send the user a link to edit the article that does not work because they need to be admin to access the given link. So these could be confusing to the user, only admin has access to that link.

    Is there a way to remove the second link to ‘Edit the article’ in the sent email?
    User only need a link to the listing and they can edit from there.

    Thank you.

    Hi I just realized that the email sent out can be modified under Reports->Settings and I can remove the second admin only link. But I still don’t understand why the email come from “WordPress” in the from email field that I receive.

    Thank you.

    OK, I searched this up online and it looks like all the from wordpress come from WordPress with email address of [email protected].

    I used a plug in by the name of “WP Mail From II”, so I can specif my company name and my company email address, so my the email from wordpress now show the correct from name and email address.

    So this issue is solved. And it also solved this same issue that I had with my invoicing emails.

    Regards,
