Yeah, the option was there previously. I'll check the links when I get a moment.
A readme.txt file in with the .zip file might be a useful addition to this hack. |
Hi,
did someone know how to fix the event & birthday problem? Also the "last topic" on forum home is not shown, when sending the newsletter into a selected forum... Regards, Tobias |
I just want to confirm that this hack still currently works with VB 2.3.2?
Regards, Lee |
Versions of this hack for vB 2.*.* are here:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=32129 and https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=16290 In regard to the vB3 version I'm going to take a look through the installation instructions tonight and make sure I've changed all the templates appropriately. I missed that before, so apologies for that. One last request: with the new thread style here this hack is currently shown as mod version 1.0.0. On my script this is shown as "Community Bulletin Email Generator version 2.4" - could the mod version be changed so that we can refer back to here to see if we're using the most up-to-date version of this hack? Thanks. |
Okay within the installation instructions I see the initial message:
Code:
User table altered... Failed (Possibly already updated) Still nothing under the links within the admincp either - by the looks of things that it is to do with the phrases. What exactly should I be looking to edit there? By the way, if it helps I went into the properties of my user table and it shows the following. Code:
CREATE TABLE user ( |

I finally had to add a hard coded link in the html version for my forums' calendar for the users to click. |
EVENTS
I have taken a crack at fixing the event problems. They are related to the fact that the database as of 3.0.3 now has the dates stored as an integer timestamp (big number) and this combull script expects them to be stored as a MM-DD-YYYY date format. There is also an issue related to the fact that there are now start and end dates associated with each event, and a separate issue related to the possible existence of private calendars. If someone wants to PM me with their email address I can send instructions on how to modify the script to print events. This will help debug it. If you can't use an editor to modify the script and test the results, please don't bother PM'ing at this point. This is for debugging purposes only. I will send you a piece of code that replaces the CALENDAR section of commbull.php. It is ugly because it has the existing lines commented out with corrections inserted. We'll test it then clean it up before publishing it. BIRTHDAYS Birthdays are more messed up. The storage order MDY changed around and the script also has a bug in it that would prevent it from working properly if the birthday window (30, 60 days) wrapped a year end. I got it printing the current month's birthdays, but with 3500+ users, there is basically no point for me in taking the birthday thing any further. I am not going to acknowledge 300+ birthdays in the monthly newsletter anyway. I suspect that there is a way to reuse code from the forumhome to do that, I might look at it if I have the chance but I have a lot of important things pressing. PLEASE CONTACT ME BY PM ONLY, so we don't clutter this thread until we have a solution. Include your EMAIL address if you want code to test. Regards, Matt |
hi everyone ... i'm going to look into fixing some of these bugs, including all the calendar stuff, but i am currently traveling/working in Europe and won't be back till January. I now have it running on over 30 vB's (all on a couple of our servers) and it works really well ... we send out about 100,000 mailouts between all the forums.
