Plots2: Add a button to report comments spam to moderators

[first-timers[bot]]

Hi, this is a first-timers-only issue. This means we've worked to make it more legible to folks who either haven't contributed to our codebase before, or even folks who haven't contributed to open source before.

If that's you, we're interested in helping you take the first step and can answer questions and help you out as you do. Note that we're especially interested in contributions from people from groups underrepresented in free and open source software!

We know that the process of creating a pull request is the biggest barrier for new contributors. This issue is for you 💝

If you have contributed before, consider leaving this one for someone new, and looking through our general help wanted issues. Thanks!

🤔 What you will need to know.

Nothing. This issue is meant to welcome you to Open Source :) We are happy to walk you through the process.

📋 Step by Step

• [ ] 🙋 Claim this issue: Comment below. If someone else has claimed it, ask if they've opened a pull request already and if they're stuck -- maybe you can help them solve a problem or move it along!

@jywarren Yes! That would be great

[jywarren]

Actually @chrislazo22 do you think you could put almost exactly the same code on this line on a similar template?

https://github.com/publiclab/plots2/blob/ad204650097fe76cd06cc2e9fdfa2474aa1cfed5/app/views/dashboard/_node_meta.html.erb#L21

comment.body would become node.title, and comment.author.username would be node.author.username. Make sense?

Also @MittalS211 I think i made a small error in preparing this one -- node.id should be comment.nid. Sorry!

For both of you, I /think/ this should work. But I'm happy to help if I've accidentally made other small errors!

Thanks so much!

[jywarren]

Er, below the line i referenced, i mean, @chrislazo22 -- does that make sense?

[chrislazo22]

Yes, I believe so @jywarren

[Zengirl2]

Just a thanks to all of you working on this. :)
