    is there a plugin for abuse reporting, preferable for reporting both blogs and users.

    No, you'll have to write your own.

    i just added "Report bla bla abuse@mydomain.com" in every footer using 'sed', crude but easy :)

    surely it would have been easier to put it into the footer function?

    I know that some templates don't use the footer but ....

    Find a contact form plugin and add it in to your install. You then add it to a Page within your main blog, routing it to your abuse address. Link to it elsewhere on the site like gighen does.

    Making sure that all themes support wp_foot() might be a good idea, adding it in if needbe.

    quick question, it's really more about PHP that the report abuse but the reporting script I got looks like this

    $message = 'URL of Abusing Blog: ' . $_POST['URL'] . '/n /n Reason Given: ' . $_POST['Reason'];

    but in the email outputs

    URL of Abusing Blog: test/n /n Reason Given: testing

    i tried \n as well i thought one of those was what you use in PHP for a new line. So it would look like this

    URL of Abusing Blog: test

    Reason Given: testing

    Thanks for your help.
