I figured this out BTW, it was total administrator error on my part. I had moved my forum to a new directory, and forgot to change one of the VB options referring back to the old directory. changed the option,and now this mod is working great for me!

I have a forum with about 150 members. Is there a script I can run after I install this that will subscribe all members to all forums for instant email notification?

This works on 3.7, or it did for me, without problems.

Does this work with Project Tools? Since the threads have the links /project.php?projectid=xx I am wondering if the code accommodates this.

It seems that with this script only works on forums that are not moderated. It would seem possible to fire this plugin off AFTER a thread has been validated by a moderator.
I also use a hack that requires moderation of a new users' first post. Users are spared much spam as a result. Only problem is that forum subscribers DO NOT receive email notification IF the thread was moderated.
Am I missing something here? If this is the current behavior, is there a workaround?

I have a huge problem that i really wanna have help with to solve. This script is awsome and thenak u for this but now i have a major problem at my site. I have paid subscriptions for some forumareas at my site and the payers will have a mail notification as soon our betting experts put up a pick on the forum. That works fine. But if the subscription has run put of time and our users goes back to normal member again they still get mail but we don´t wnt them getting anyone. Please help!

Exactly what I was looking for, but no emails are received. I do see the instant notification option when subscribing to a forum (not there without the mod).

Just no emails.

Thoughts?

Do you get emails for regular subscriptions?

Update:

It appears my regular subscription email notifications are NOT coming through as they should, or at least not reliably. I ran the email diagnostic, and that test email came through just fine.

For the moment, I'm stuck as to what to try next.

o.k. I tried it again and I found the bug. The plugin works fine as long as you do not retsrict this fetaure for a specific usergroup.

In ACP/vboptions/newtheradnotification/

There is the option:

As soon as you type in teher a usergroup ID, it does not work anymore. The suer of the usergroup can enable the instant notification of that forum, but no e-mail arrives. No matter which usergroup I put in ther for testing, it just does not send e-mail out.

As soon as I leave that field blank, it works.

So this is really sad. This plugin makes the most sense, if you can offer it for a premium usergroup only, so that they support you with paypal subscriptions to get this feature.

If only everybody can use it, it would be almost useless for me. I need ideas to finance my board.

So how can I fix this bug?
