Flag as Spam(Abuse Service) with custom button in Activity Story Stream

Hey,

I'm trying to style Flag as  spam/abuse and Delete activity message dropdown [ http://telligent.com/resized-image.ashx/__size/500x480/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-04-07/5722.flag-a-comment-as-abusive.png ]. In fact, I need two buttons, not the dropdown.

Everything went well with Delete, I just  changed

widgetContext.wrapper.delegate('.full-post.activity', 'evolutionModerateLinkClicked', function (e, link) {

to 

widgetContext.wrapper.delegate('.my-activity-delete-button', 'click', function(e) {

in Activity Story Stream widget's ui.js file. 

But what about that flag button? I was not able to find what to .trigger to get that `Flag as Spam/Abuse `. 

There is some ui.component.moderate, but I was not able to make it work.

is there the only option to simulate the same action from front-end, it's to write my own post call to "api.ashx/v2/abusereports.json"? Or I can some how trigger this evolutionModerate() component?

Any help will be appreciated

    If you want a different kind of moderation control only for the activity stream, I would suggest instead of styling the drop down to implement your own button which, when clicked, simply performs a REST request against the abuse report endpoint you identified.

    It would be possible to replace the moderation UI component (which is what renders the moderation drop down dynamically) in a theme override, but this would not be specific to the activity stream. And a simple button should be fairly straightforward to add.

    REST API endpoint worked! Thanks. But I can not get info, is current story is already marked as spam by current user. How can I get this info?

    I was using

    $core_v2_abusiveContent.Get($story.ContentId, $story.ContentTypeId)

    But I was not able to get any valuable information from it.
