However, if i search users who where active AFTER 60 days ago and BEFORE 59 days ago (inactive for 60 days) i have tons of them (100/150)... I don't understand how this hack gets the "inactivity"... My forum has over 40.000 registered users, and I'm sure that there are a lot more than 10/20 users who reach every day the "60 day" inactivity...

I've tried searching users wich were last active 60 days ago, AND have 1 or more posts.. And that results are more like the sent emails (20/30)... But even like that, I found users who where not emailed (checking the log)... I checked that users to see if it could be something with the "receive E-Mail from administrators" but it's not that either... So, I really don't know wich parameter take this script to send out the emails...


Any clue?
This is the way it's designed to work. The add-on starts at the beginning of your memberlist (in the database) and gradually works its way through sending out a few emails at a time. This is intentional, to avoid overwhelming your mail server and/or getting your site blacklisted by spam filters. Eventually, it will get them all and start over at the beginning.

Thanks.... but, I will have to wait until... next year in order to get all the inactive users to be emailed? I mean, if it only sends out a few mails per day, and I've got over 40K registered users, it will never get all the inactive users...
Besides that, one day sends 13 mails, other 20, I can't see any "consistent" number of mails sent each day... Are you sure it works like that?

Thanks again!

Which version are you using?

YLP1 06-03-2007 05:07 PM
I uninstalled ver1.11 and installed ver1.09 --- all emails are "failed" yet all other vb email functions work e.g. activation emails, reminders, subscriptions.

I have disabled the product hoping that a solution can be found because this is an awesome tool.

Iceman62 06-04-2007 01:20 PM
It's not working for me. This is what I got when I ran it manually.

You're answer is in the error message - see highlighted parts.

The path to the cron file remindermail.php is incorrect.

Change it to read "./includes/cron/remindermail.php".

Admin CP | Scheduled Tasks | Scheduled Task Manager

Scroll down to find Inactive User Reminder Emails

Click "Go" next to "Edit" in the drop down box

Scroll down to Filename and enter the correct path in the text box to the right of that label

Just installed. In a couple days I'll see how effective this is.

axi 06-04-2007 05:20 PM
niec hack.!

whats this 'credit' thing all about in the settings?? i dont get it can someone explain??

djbaxter 06-04-2007 05:31 PM
Yes. The default installation places a small credit to Chris, the author, in your forum footer. There are other add-ons that also do this (I have two of them running on my forum).

However, some people seemed to take in ordinate offense to this and Chris was kind enough to give the whiners an easy way to delete that footer link.

axi 06-04-2007 05:37 PM
so if someone that hasnt been on in the set 'x' amount of days and then they visit back after this thing sends out an email it puts chris's name in my footer?

does it put the credit if they post up , or if they only visit and not post? when does the credit exactly go there coz i dont see one yet..well i just installed it :P

It's a credit to the developer of the mod. Like the vbulletin credits on your footer.

I can't recall for certain but I'd guess that it is not set by default, although in my opinion it should be.

In Admin CP | vBulletin Options | Inactive User Reminder Emails, find:

Quote:
Show footer link?
If set to yes, the plugin will add a credit to the author to the footer of the forum. Yes No

Add credit to emails sent
If set to yes, will append a credit to the author to the footer of each email sent out Yes No
Choose the option you prefer and set it to "Yes". Or set both to "No" and thanks to Chris you can use the add-on with no credit whatsoever.

I'm getting this error after upgrading to 3.6.7

Code:
Inactive User Reminder Emails
Found 0 Inactive Users.


Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in /home/{removed}/public_html/forum/includes/class_mail.php(266) : eval()'d code on line 13
I'm getting this while running it manually.

djbaxter 06-05-2007 12:59 AM
1. Which version are you using? If 1.11, uninstall and install 1.09.

2. If you're using 1.09, try reinstalling it.

It's working fine on 3.6.7 for me.

txspaderz 06-05-2007 01:25 AM
Awesome. I was using 1.11. I downgraded to 1.09 and it's working again.

Much Thanks!

Edit: And MUCH thanks for the ultra-quick response.

djbaxter 06-05-2007 02:05 AM
You're welcome. :)

Masiello 06-05-2007 04:33 AM
Hi, it's possible to integrate other two options?

1) Set the deley for sending users email, for example:
an email every 60 seconds, some servers block if there is not a certain delay between the send of an email and the other.

2) The possibility for check inactive users and to send the memorandum with the delay above cited.

3) Take it full compatible with vB 3.6.7 PL1

Thanks in advance for any contribution.

I have this installed, but haven't clicked installed as of yet, becuase I want to make sure it's working.

I use 3.6.7 P1.

One of my Moderators created a ghost account and this account is a registered user and he hasn't used this ghost account for sometime.

After I installed and edited the settings...saved them. I contacted the Moderator to see if his ghost account received an email...which it should have.

Am I missing something here...do I have to make any changes anywhere eles with the forum?

I appreciate any input....BTW I downloaded and installed the latest zip file...imported it, but didn't check overwrite, because this was the first install.

WEBDosser 06-06-2007 05:19 PM
i use same version and it works for me.. without testing.

Masiello 06-06-2007 06:23 PM
So, I think the script have problems to works fine in vB 3.6.7, I've more then 200 inactive users but when I clicked to run the script from schedule task, it found only two (2) inactive users to send reminder email.
What about that?
thx

Thanks but I dont see a voice called quantity, I see the day setting for Inactive users and the days delay, if I set "1" in the second field, the users receive one email per day after they result are inactive users.

Uninstall 1.11 and install 1.09.

DIR refers to the path to your forum:

If your forum is at www.yoursite.com/forum/ then the path would be www.yoursite.com/forum/includes/cron/

If your forum is at www.yoursite.com then the path would be www.yoursite.com/includes/cron/

If your forum is at forum.yoursite.com then the path would be forum.yoursite.com/includes/cron/

etc.

With version 1.09, it's not going to find all of the inactive users the first time it runs. It will start at the beginning of your database and go through it in batches looking for members who match whatever criteria you've set in the options.

Post the error, please.

Previously you posted this:

Inactive User Reminder Emails

Warning: include_once(/home/xxxxxxxx/public_html/forums/./includes/cron/remindermail.php) [function.include-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /admincp/cronadmin.php on line 110

That error was telling you you have a bad path specification. Notice the /./ part up there? No valid path could have that in the middle. The "./" is saying "go up one directory level and then follow the rest of the path to the correct directory". In a valid path statement, that would always be the FIRST part of the path, not stuck in the middle like that.

I get this error on run task:

Which version did you install? If it was 1.11, uninstall and install 1.09.

Instruct members who do not wish to receive such notifications to uncheck "Receive email from admins" in their User CP. They won't receive this email again.

I include that, along with a link to the User CP | Options page, in the email that is sent out, as a way of ensuring that I'm in compliance with anti-spam efforts.

daemon_ 06-08-2007 01:57 PM
ok thanks a lot :) once again, great mod
