Email your PM's

[zarkov]

I created this hack to email your PM's to your registered email address after installing the Download hack by Bira, users get no choice in email addresses, it just pulls the registered email address from the database.
This was done for security reasons.

here it is:-

PLEASE change the brackets [ & ] for { & } respectively
as the board here parses the variable and replaces the code with the boards own colour scheeme :)

there not the same

one of them e-mails and the other downloads.

[Steve Machol]

Is it possible that this borrows some code from bira's hack?

Besides it's 'they're' not 'there'! :D

[nuno]

yes
he should give the credit to Bira
something like:
Author: Bira
Tarted up by: Zarkov

Yea sorry Bira it was a genuine mistake what i thought id wrote was
I created this hack to email your PM's to your registered email address after installing the download hack by bira,

If you look at the other hack i posted here that was an adaption of tubedogs post i said the same there.

I do not want to take anything away from you bira or try to hide the fact that it is not all my work.
I am learning php but gave up as i didnt have any real applicational uses for the test scripts i was writing.
Then someone asked me to be a mod on a vb board and when i realised it was php i came here and read what others where doing, I then asked for permission to the boards code to "Play with".
Now i am learning a great deal from you guys.

I am sorry for offending you Bira and my original post will be altered to the intented opening.

ps nuno i do not consider it "tarting up" it does a totaly different job.

[nuno]

ok ok
Original Author : Bira
New Version : Zarkov :D

[zarkov]

to be honest it was because i was so proud that i got it to work properly that i couldn wait to share it.
I had to edit the post 3 times to add in the bits i missed through my excitement and joy.

That not tarted up comment was not said nastily BTW, But thanks for the alteration and in future i will double check that any code i use from others hacks is clearly stated.

Bira, or anyone else, can you please explain why I could not access that thread???

(i am registered with vb.com and entered my licence number in the form....... :confused: )

[Steve Machol]

Just change the 'com' to 'org'.

[Learner29]

thank you a million Steve.

I really appreciate it .

What is funny is that I just finished installing this hack (though I would wish and appreciate installing Bira's original work) on all 4 boards I work on.

Life is ridiculous.....

lol

[Steve Machol]

What happened was this thread was started on vbulletin.com before vb.org was available. When all the hacks threads were transferred to vb.org, some of the old links still pointed back to vb.com. If you run into this again, just try changing 'com' to 'org'.

thank you so much Steve for the information.
I felt a little bit funny after your answer that I did not find that out
myself.
When I found that the link points back to vb.com, I thought, a hack on
vb.COM ???
well, maybe it was adopted or something by the guys of vb.com.....

Now I know why, and I even have some good knowledge of the history of
vbulletin.org!
thank ya buddy

[Steve Machol]

No problem! :)

[David Bott]

Problem Found...

Someone sent me a private message and then cancelled it before I got a chance to read it. Obviously, the intent of cancelling a PM is to prevent the recipient from reading it (if possible). This seemed to have been enforced fairly well but for one exception.... With this hack I was able to use the "email" button at the bottom of my PM Inbox to send myself a copy of the cancelled note.

I am also supprsed that VB does not just delete the cancelled message. E-gads!

Opps!

[Learner29]

Hi David,

Did you get any solution for this problem ???

you are right about a cancelled letter still being readable through this email feature....

[David Bott]

Hello... Nope...never had any word on it I am sorry to say.

[Learner29]

Okie Dave.....

thank you so much for your answer.....

if you still get an answer to this , or a work around so that the cancelled messages be ommitted in the email sent, please remember to come back here and post in this thread.

[adriandaz]

all worked for me :D Although... I have Chen's Pricate Attachments installed, and it doenst email the attachment, could some wizkid make this hack do that? That would be cool.

Thanks,

Adrian.
