a fairly awkward request, but would you consider puting on a timer after one of you listed criteria was met?

That way, it won't seem like so much of a bot if it send 3 mintes after registration. :)

Or maybe even after their first post. :)
That would also save on resources. ;)

Three minutes after registration would be nice. And of course before first post.

I just added that "after the first post" thing because it would be easier.

Most people on my boards do not post and my private mail is getting them to post, posting statistics from new members increased significantly after installing automatic welcome pm plugin.

Works for me thanks

Has this been added yet? ;)

I don't see a place in there to set the sender ID. I'm on beta 4.

Welcome PM for Users added through ACP is not yet a feature.

You can set the Sender ID in ACP / vBulletin Options / vBulletion Options / User Registration Options

I still don't see it anywhere in there, Sorry. :(

Updated for RC1

Kirby, your RC1 XML file seems to be missing somethings. Like the hooks. And the setting. :)

They're probably not tagged as for this product properly.

Also, in your install code...
Profileviews? :)

Guess I totally messed up the XML, lol :D
Should be OK now.

Ahhh, so it wasn't just me this time. Pheewww! I was starting to worry. ;)

And thank you, Mike. ;)

There's no description for the setting for the ID. That's the way it is supposed to be, right?

Any way to add a setting to be able to edit the message itself instead of editing the phrase? ;)

Description should have been there ... dunno why it wasn't but now it is.

Hmm, why do you want a setting for changing the Text?

Doesn't make sense IMHO.

Basically, this is the same as the Welcome eMail - which is also defined as a Phrase.

The setting to change the text would just make it easier to add links or whatever to the welcome email like maybe if a forum ID changes or something along that line.

How do I upgrade it to add the descition? Delete what is in the plug-ins now or just re-run the new file?

I don't see how a setting would make it easier then a Phrase?

Just Re-Import and tick Overwrite.

Np problem buddy, it was just a suggestion that I'm sure you will hear again. Not having to search through phases to find something makes it alot easier to get at is all. ;)

Thanks for the quick service. ;)

If that's all ... place the attached File in includes/xml and reload the ACP Navigation Frame.

You see, now there you go. Exactly what I was talking about and wanting. ;)

I should have thought of that myself. Duh on me.

Thank you, sir! ;)

I think i'll change the Description Text and put the Links there.
Does make more sense IMHO, and doesn't add more stuff to the (already very bloated) CP Nav :)

That'll work just as well, maybe even better to have it all in one place. ;)

So here goes 1.0.2 :p

Perfect! I like this way even better. Thank you, again, sir! ;)

One last thing, if we want to add a forum link to the new member's forum, would it be like it was pre-3.5? And just use html code?

If HTML is allowed for PMs you can use HTML.
Otherwise you can only use BBCode.

That was painless. Thanks Kirby. :)

I guess that was really a stupid and pointless question on my part, huh? Guess I've been away from it longer than I thought. ;)

LMAO! I wouldn't worry about it. Some of the questions I've asked over the past couple of days are, upon retrospect, well..... I blame it on the lack of sleep and late nights. :D

I can only blame mine on complete and utter ignorance and running out of Hot Pockets!

**grin** Me? It's when the blood content in my alcohol is too high. ;)

I've been there and I'm going again soon, I hope. ;)

Gonna sober up? WHY?!

(Read my previous statement again.. Carefully. ;) )

You were tseting me, huh? And I failed miserably. ;)

Heh...

Sorry Kirby... :D

Hard to believe this was such a hefty hack for 3.0. Awesome plugin, I've missed this for a while since I got too lazy to reinstall a pile of hacks after upgrades. Thanks once more heh.

I continue to recieve this error :

Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /includes/functions.php on line 771

Parse error: parse error, unexpected '<' in /forum/register.php(409) : eval()'d code on line 22

When do you get that error?

I recieve this error every time I attempt to import the xml file :
Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /includes/functions.php on line 771

I recieved this error when I registered the test account a few moments ago :
Parse error: parse error, unexpected '<' in /forum/register.php(409) : eval()'d code on line 22

Make sure you are using the Product Manager and not uploading it as a plug-in. ;)

:ermm:

Ehh... yeah it uploaded with any errors that time... whats the difference between the 'Product Manager' and the 'Plugin Manager'

:disappointed:
