It should work. Have you tested it with other plugins disabled?

i'll try that out, thanks for the quick response. is it likely that plugins interfere with one another?

They can, yes.
Which other Plugins do you have installed?

is it work with no email activation (ON)?

It works no matter if you are using eMail Verfification or not.

Kirby, is this going to work with 3.5 Gold?

Not tested on gold, but I don't see any reason why it should not work.

Well my understanding is the code is a tag altered...some items that were designed with RC 3 do not work on Gold.

Thanks, all working on vbulletin 3.5 gold

not working in gold

That's interesting - for ukbill69 it does work, for you it does not ;)
I think you did smth. wrong if it does not work for you.

not working in gold

It does work in gold, yalla and Triple T you must be doing something wrong.

*sighs*

Add me to that list.

I tried registering a new member...activated the account from the email.. no PM.

So, I uninstalled the Product and reinstalled it. Registered a new member, confirmed it.. still no PM.

In my Registration Options, I have 2 fields for User Who Sends PM, one is most likely the 3.0.x version..

i cant get this is work on vb 3.5.0 :(

Tried it again: uploaded the product, changed the prases and specified user ID
When I register as a new member i receive no new welcome pm

Could it be conflicting with the old version of this hack for 3.0, we still have those options visible in the same place

It works fine for me on 3.5.0 and I've been using it since RC2.

Ditto. I didn't change anything. I just upgraded my vBulletin from 3.5.0 RC2 to 3.5.0 Gold and checked pms for newly registered members. Bling Blow, they have the welcome pm in their inbox.


One question though: To have links in private messages do I still need to use bbcode or should I use html tags?

It's been a while since I tested that back on the 3.0 version of this but I would imagine the BB code would work because that is the format used for links in PMs. Actually I'm quite sure I used BB code.

When I viewed the pm for my newest member it showed the a tags, rather then a link. So I wasn't sure if it was displaying correctly in the user's usercp. I've changed to bbcode and I guess will check the pm for the next user who signs up.

Typically I test by registering under a test name myself.

I don't like having fake members.

I delete them afterwards. Better still, have a test board. You're allowed to under the vB license agreement (under certain conditions).

I never thought of that. I should install one in a subdirectory.

Anyways, I've gotten a few more signups since earilier when I changed the links in welcomepm phrase to bbcode. When I viewed them it still displays the a tags. I guess the only real way to know would be to test it out myself.

BBCode should work fine.
And for all those claming it does not work on Gold - i'll test that ASAP (although, as said, I don't see any reason why it should not work).

Edit: Tested and works fine on my Gold Testboard. Even gonna test BBCode now ...
Edit2: BBCode does work as well.

Thanks for clarifying Kirby. I second that this works on Gold.

Unfortunately, like several others, this fails to work on my system also.

I have only one other plugin installed (create a new thread for reporting bad post).

If anybody has any suggestions on what might be areas to troubleshoot, I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks in advance!

I don't understand why this would fail on some 3.5.0 gold versions and not others.

I don't know why it would fail, and I also can't tell how to fix it as I cannot reproduce the problem.

@digitalhome
Feel free to send me a PM witn an ACP account (access to Settings, Users, Usergroups and Plugins is required) and i'll take a look.

I'm new to plugins. I've got it imported already and everything. Where on admin CP is the controls for this, tahnks.

There it is.

just installed this and it doesnt work on 3.5 gold for me, signed up 2 testusers, signed them in and out and nothing, i should have waited before i wrote a long welcome PM <insert banghead smiley here> Kirby would you sign into my account and check on it?

Yup, doesn't work on 3.5 gold for me either. Could this be do to other plugin's already installed?

You are running a vBulletin installation that is not a 3.5 fresh install?
Then please check if it works with 1.0.4.

Works fine for me on 3.5 Gold.
