TDB Hiding Posts 1.0.0

Content moderation can become a chore for most forums. This plugin aims to take more of the work out of hiding content by making some of the more mundane tasks automated.
With this Plug-in, administrators can allow various actions to be taken when hiding content. A new Moderator Topic can be created in a selected Forum, this Topic will contain various information who and why the original post was hidden by a moderator.

Administrators can optionally have a customable Private Message send to the member of the Hidden content, explaining the reason why their content was hidden. Private Messages can be set as no-reply to give hot-head members time to cool down 

The hide form now has 4 different options for a moderator to use:

1. Hide Reason: This has been changed to a select Option. This select box uses the ‘Warning Reasons’ via the members tab. This makes selecting a hide reason easier for moderators.
2. Other Reason: Used as a custom Reason or to override the Hide Reason Selection.
3. Member Note: This field will use ‘Default Note’ from the ‘Warning Reason’ options. Moderators can override the ‘Default note for member’ with their own custom reason.
4. Moderator Note: This note will only be displayed to Administrators and Moderators, either within the hidden content or the Moderator Topic Post.

Plugin Settings

1. Member Message: The admin can change the Private Message content with a Custom one.
