Has anyone offered proof redtyger is even still alive to care? If so, then they must know where he can be contacted.

bernieberg 06-03-2010 05:59 PM

Just fyi, I spoke with a moderator and they said I can't post it in this thread either.

Videx 06-03-2010 07:16 PM

No, until their policy changes they won't let you post it anywhere. But if it's not too involved a tutorial showing how some code may need to be updated to work with vb4 might be okay.

vilhiem 06-13-2010 06:40 AM

So bernieberg ... the mod you made to this mod works for me (and I thank you).

Only thing, were you able to "tweek" it to resolve the issue where the author shows up as the original "post" author (versus the "reply" author (if that makes sense) ...?

Thanks!!!

It's not working for us. Notices are inconsistent, phrased incorrectly, ditto the wrong attribution, and mistakenly send notices of all posts, not just new threads. Actually, if it could be fixed to stop sending those subsequent notis, then there wouldn't be a problem with incorrect attribution. Note that I'm comparing it to vb3.x where it worked perfectly.

hey guys,

I'm looking for something like that for pm notification instead of email,
Is there anything like that ?

An interesting idea, since vb4 already has the capability to instant email notices of PMs.

sinpin 07-06-2010 07:19 PM

how do I change this code to send pm ?
Code:

// Construct the email phrase. Must be done inside the loop to use $got_users['username'], unfortunately.
eval(fetch_email_phrases('newthreadsub', $forum['languageid']));
vbmail($got_users['email'], $subject, $message, $notsubscription = $notsubscription_onoff);

Sorry to bump an old thread.

Maybe someone can help me.
I am super admin in my forum with full permissions, running on vB 3.6.12.

I can subscribe to thread replies without problems, but the instant email notification for new threads (on specific forums) does not work for me. I receive the standard access denied message:

Quote:

admin, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:
  1. Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?
  2. If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.

Any help is appreciated.
Thanks.

INSTALLED!

Now all that needs to be added is a way for the Admin to auto subscribe an entire usergroup to a forum or a thread. :)

This doesn't seem to work for vbulletin 4.1 CMS. It installs fine, but nothing shows up in the forum subscribe drop down.:confused:

Burley 03-11-2011 08:40 PM

Is there a way to target specific (sub)forums only?

I'm not a coder (far from it), but it seems to me that a statement like

PHP Code:

if forumid=XX then..... 

should do the trick, but like I said I'm not a coder at all. Perhaps anybody has a solution?

Videx 03-11-2011 10:39 PM

I miss not being able to in/exclude forums with the vb4 version. But this version has the ability to do both so as long as the subforums have forum IDs it should work fine. Sorry I don't remember if they do or not.

Burley 03-12-2011 03:06 PM

subforums have ID's, I already new that, my bad :)

But I still need to be subscribed to the specific forum, installing the product just isn't enough. I would also like it mandatory for all users, but no clue how to make that happen.

do you?

Videx 03-12-2011 03:59 PM

You could probably do it with some sql query. But it's a Really Bad Idea. What you're proposing is sending out unsolicited spam. If you're lucky, the recipient might follow the link to unsubscribe. But they're just as likely to mark it as Spam and you'll end up on blacklists. It's a lot easier to get on those lists than to get off!

Burley 03-12-2011 04:37 PM

No it's not.

Since my forum is a closed forum on which only members of the same club are active and they all want to know about the events they can attend.

That's what I want to use it for, when an event is posted in the calender a new thread is created automatically. I feel that it's good for the overall event attendence when members will get an automated email notifiing them of the event. So that even members who are not active on the forum will be notified of the event.

ANyway, got an idea how to do this without the query? The forum isn't running jet, so I perhaps it's not neccesary to do it in the sql. But we can fix it in the forum registration process.

Videx 03-12-2011 05:07 PM

Oh, I don't think that works anyway. Something to do with the way vb is coded - only real-people posts get notification. At least it wasn't working the last time I checked. [edit: It might work for you in vb3, I forgot this is the vb3 version.]

The whole web is designed to be "opt-in" these days. None of those inactive members are going to thank you for sending them unsolicited emails. Even if their email addys are still any good.

Burley 03-12-2011 08:40 PM

Well, it's a forum for our diving club. So all the email adresses are correct and current. They aren't inactive in the club, just on the web. Luckily everyone has an email adress and they all want to stay informed..

Anyway, you are right, it doesn't work if a bot posts a new thread. But right now it doesn't work either if a member does that. I have to figure that out first.

hossenpheffer 08-11-2011 09:01 PM

I've been using this mod for a while now without any problems. After setting up some forms for input using the Easy Forms mod, the New Thread Subscription alerts are no longer sending with new threads via the Easy Form thread posting method.

Has anyone else seen this? I've adjusted some of the various execution orders for both mods without success. Any help still around for this mod?

Any update for work on 4.1.10?

Images of what?

charris0910 09-05-2013 11:41 AM

Would there, perchance, be a working version for 5.0.2?

This was one of the most requested features for v5. Are you sure it's not already included?

charris0910 09-05-2013 04:25 PM

It is 'implied' that it is as their are settings for it. But we (myself and others at my company) have been unsuccessful at getting this to work.

I have posted in the general forum for vbulletin 5 to see if others have seen this issue.

Thanks for the reply.
