As am I. /disables until we can get this resolved :(

Yeah the display thing is only very minor, but I thought I'd point it out.

I don't think the {name} variable is right (going by the description in the user options of what it is meant to do). Logically the replacement variables are for showing things in the message that can change, like the from and to dates which you might change as you are away at different times. There isn't really much point in having a variable which just displays your username, since your username would hardly ever change (if ever at all). The example plugin output in this post further up shows that {name} is being replaced by the sender of the auto-reply (the user who has the auto-reply setup for PMs they receive) and not the name of the auto-reply recipient (the person who sends a PM and gets an auto-reply back).

{name} is replaced by the name of the user that has sent you the original PM, or in other terms, with the name of the reciever of the auto-reply.

Ex:
UserA sends UserB a PM, UserB has autoreply enabled -> {name} = UserA

At least that's how it's supposed to be, anything else I will check and fix, since it's a bug then. :)

Hi,

As in my post above, The {to} and {from} don't work the only thing that does work is {name} but this only works as your user name as from not too.

This is the only one that works for me if setup like this:

If adding anything Hi {to} or Hi {from} they only leave a blank space and will not show the senders user name :(

I have tried this on alot of other user accounts with no luck :(

Thanks!

{to} and {from} is for the date display, if you have not entered a date, of course they will be empty ;)

I'll check the {name} thing....

Very nice hack Hellcat, thank you.
Is it possible to make a setting in the acp for enabling/disabling the date settings? I don't find it usefull and think it's only to much confusing for the default user, especially who really knows whats a "PHP recognizable format" is.

Thanks.

I can't find, for the life of me, the options to type in the msg. Any idea?

That can be done, yes :)

In "Edit Options", right under "Enable Autoresponder"?

Did you edit the template?

My mistake. I thought this was something I'd have to type inside a box in the Admin Options. Instead, it's part of regular users' Control Panel.
