Has noone else experience the issue of the bbcode displaying in raw text in the body of the email notification? This feature is a neccessity for our site but if it continues to show the bbcode, we'll have to look elsewhere for a solution... where, I have no idea.

Does anyone know which file is used to handle the sending of the email notifications? I'd like to find the actual code that handles this function.

Converting the bbcode to html would be a nice mod, if you can pull it off. Please keep us advised.

Until then, I'm not going to let it bother me. I've been notified there's a new post; all I have to do is click the link to read it without all the garbage.

Hi

I installed this hack, but it does not work. The suer can susbscribe to the forum with instant notification, but when I start a new thread with another user, no e-mail notification is sent out.

The usergroup is enabled and the forum too. E-mail address is correct. The moderator gets also the posting, so no issue of the mail server.

vb 3.68

Any ideas why this does not work?

Make sure the server is setup to handle the number of emails per hour. Most servers - shared are set to 100 emails per hour limit, most dedicated or semi dedicated servers are set to allow 250 emails per hour. This is per website on the server.

Since I have a dedicated server, that hosts my vBulletin forums, I have it set to unlimited as I can have over 2200 emails per hour in / out.

Once you reach the limit, it no longer sends emails out, and does not inform you that you went over the allowed limit. Contact your server host and ask them to check your email logs to see what happend to those emails. If they tell you your going over the limit, ask them nicely to increase the hourly limit.

thank alot

Does this work? It wasn't, even with 3.6. And not now since ug to 3.7. Thanks.

It's always worked fine in 3.6.8 for me.

Initial reports from one of my mods said it wasn't working in 3.7. I diddled with the settings a bit and tried it myself, and it's working fine.

Hi, I just installed this on my 3.7 board. it sent out an instant notification just fine BUT the link to the thread sent out in the email produces a 404 error.

Has anyone else encountered this?

thanks

Are you upgrading this for 3.7? Its a much wanted feature on my forum
