The way it works is the first time reminder emails are sent out, each inactive user will get a timestamp for that reminder mail run. Each time the cron job runs after that it will use the number of days set in the field "How often should we send inactivity reminders". For example, if a user has been inactive for 180 days, this user would get a reminder. If you have 30 in the field mentioned above, this user would not receive another reminder for 30 days. If you want them to get reminders more frequently, then you would need to set this to a lower number. For instance, 7 days then they would get reminders, once a week.

It works the same way when sending reminders in lastpost mode.

I have only tried it once. Give me a couple of minutes and I will check and get back to you.

Edit: I'm having a hard time reproducing it as I can't get the cron to send out any emails even though I have set last activity/post of two test accounts back one and three months.

When I get the email reports sent from the same email address to admin, they show up with "Digi-Tech Forums" as sender, so I can only assume it's working as intended?

If not, I will give you a shout ;)

Crapola my bad.... I had used this member to test a few days back and I forgot it. The mod is working just like it should. :) :up:

However the last sentence in the reminder message I had to change from $bburl to $forumurl to get the url to display and work properly. Just thought I would let you know in case you want to correct in your next update.

Thanks for all your hard work and time you have put into this mod. It really helps me keep my site cleaned up and old members returning.

I put this little tool together to make it easier to reset the reminders for testing purposes or for some other reason. All this does is reset the emaildate and emailcount fields to zero so that you can do a test run for a test account or reset all users to do them all over again.

Thank you, that did the trick. I was able to reset and run the cron job once more.

This is the result I got:

I have tested this on a user with a gmail acct and it worked fine. Are you sending your emails through your hosting server? If yes try sending through your ISP or another service. Your hosting server or ISP maybe blocking sender info.

Yes, I'm sending reminders through my host (bluehost.com). I quickly created a Gmail account and was able to reproduce the issue as well. I also looked at the header when I received one through my ISP (comcast) account and that worked fine.
