I'm willing to pay but can someone tell me how

a.) I can send an email to all my members without having to watch the queue page update every x seconds and then stop?

b.) Reduce server loads and ensure the bounced emails are not sent again.
I'm sorry but was this addressed?

mails are properly sent only to gmail users, all other users are facing problems either with blank emails or no emails. Any solution to fix this ?

I run 4.14, this is a fresh install (with modifications from the 4.0 Version Thread) and I have selected usergroups and forums for the newsletter.
I can see the newsletter preview but when I click send I get the above error.

Can anyone help me with this?

Any help is appreciated
I am having the same problem

Working 4.1.4 with edits. Thanks.

Anyone ever figure out how to include photopost into commbull?

Halfhidden 09-22-2011 05:12 PM
I had a problem with this mod where sometimes it wouldn't send out emails or it sent out several to the same user, duplicated emails.
In my case I did two things to solve this:
1 In Vbulletin>admincp>Options>settings>Email Options

Use Mailqueue System set to "Yes, with locking"
This prevents duplicated newsletter from going out and also helps the smooth distribution of those newsletters.

2 SMTP Email set this to yes!
Now fill in the settings for your smtp server and hit save.
Since doing this I'm able to send out newsletters without problems to over 5,000 members.
Hope this helps.

we wrote a PHP script that runs on our server that cleans everything up.

Couple notes:
- everything gets bounced to our Google Apps account, so your setup may be slightly different
- we have multiple forums that run to the same email address, so we pass an array of DB's

I've installed this but when trying to access the settings etc. receive the following error:

Code:

WHERE  user.userid = 3;

MySQL Error  : Unknown column  'language.phrasegroup_commbull' in 'field list'

Also, I'm not sure if I have all the right files as I receive an error when I try to open the zip file.

grandeur_69 10-04-2011 09:21 PM
the error doesn't even make sense. I don't see phrasegroup_commbull in the search query for it to display that error. The product XML file is the one that would include these changes to the database.

angeljs 10-05-2011 05:42 AM
Well I don't know what to say, that's the error I'm receiving. :)

Hello, I have a problem with the MOD under vb4.1.7
After a fresh installation (all other mods are disabled), it does not work.
Commbull Version 5.1b and the xml from https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...=233798&page=7

I get an error message when sending mail related to the body.
The preview works though.

Code:
Parse error: parse error, expecting `T_VARIABLE' or `'$'' in  ...\admincp\commbull_functions.php(487) : eval()'d code on line 166

Parse error: parse error, expecting `T_VARIABLE' or `'$'' in  ...\admincp\commbull_functions.php(488) : eval()'d code on line 33
Can anybody help me, please.

Thanks
Igel1

Igel1 10-31-2011 11:51 PM
Sorry, my mistake.
The MOD works on 4.1.7
The error was because of my german translation since had a variable errors crept

Please can anybody help me.

Thanks Igel1


EDIT
Another question

In setting section when I select for "Only include threads that have been started or replied to since this date?" as yes, I get in the newsletter threads older than the date I selected.
The threads are older and the last post in the thread also older.

was indeed found but there was no answer how to fit only the hint that the last contribution would be well into the selected date. But that's not the case with me, the threads and the posts are older than the date i've selected.

grandeur_69 01-27-2012 06:55 AM
yes. Commbull runs mostly independently from vB, so unless they do some major structural changes to the database, it should continue to handle most updates.

christon26 01-29-2012 09:33 AM
K, I am trying to mark this as installed but I'm getting a permissions error, I don't know why :(

I too would love to know how to have my photopost images show like maybe the last 3 uploads?

Something similar to the vbadvanced homepage I currently have would be nice :)

kartik786 02-10-2012 09:26 AM
We're trying to send it to our database of 3,00,000 members and its becoming a pain.

We have purchased another mail server and have used smtp details in the vbulletin options.

The batch processing stopped somewhere at 120th page when I was sending 500 users per batch. I had left the computer turned on so I saw this only after when I came back. Here is the screenshot http://clip2net.com/s/1zOTl

I again tried it with batch size as 50 mails per page and it stopped at page 50. I noticed your option of resuming mails from the page that last broked and restarted sending mails from page 60.

The mail processed page 60, 61, 62 and then restarted from page 1 - the beginning again.

Now I have already got 4 emails of the same email in my inbox and couple of members mails asking me to stop spamming them.

How can I send emails easily to my 3,00,000 members?

I love combull, I've used it in the past and wish to continue using it.

Thanks.

christon26 02-20-2012 08:02 AM
New members are automatically subscribed to the newsletter, how can I change this? I want it to be strictly opt-in rather than having to opt out.

I figured out how to fix this, by changing the default for the receivebulletin field in PHPMyAdmin from 1 - 0

sailnet 02-28-2012 03:55 PM
can you automatically opt-in existing members and new subscribers and make then opt-out instead of opting in?

sailnet 02-28-2012 07:26 PM
I installed it and uninstalled it after looking at the admin screen.

3.8.7 - no text for new left nav admin menu item. no way to documentation on how to edit the template, no way to send a test for the the admin or a group.

I do appreciate all the hard work that went into this but it's just not for me.

thanks

SilverBoy 06-25-2012 03:05 AM
I have a problem with this product.

When I want to send the most reply threads or the most viewed threads as block in the newsletter the product always select the most read or most viewed from the beginning of my site (9 years old) even if they don't have any reply in the date I selected in the settings (in old versions this option was work great and there blocks select threads only if they have posts posted after the selected date).

rcull 08-19-2012 02:27 PM
I have been a user of Commbull Pro, and it worked great until now. My only problem with the Pro version was with the preview, and did not start with the vbulletin upgrade which was done some time ago!

I just attempted to instal this version and got this error:

The following dependencies were not met:

This product is not compatible with version 4.1.11 of vBulletin. (Compatible starting with 3.6.0 / Incompatible with 3.8.99 and greater)

What are my options?

  1. Edit the product file: product-Commbull4.xml


  2. FIND at line 7:

    Code:
            <dependencies>
                    <dependency dependencytype="vbulletin" minversion="3.6.0" maxversion="3.8.99" />
            </dependencies>

  3. CHANGE TO:

    Code:
            <dependencies>
                    <dependency dependencytype="vbulletin" minversion="3.0" maxversion="" />
            </dependencies>

  4. Import the edited version of the product file.

rcull 08-20-2012 02:00 AM
Thanks, djbaxter, that does allow the xml file to be imported.
Either I am doing something wrong, or the commbull offered here is just not up to the old Pro version. I would have thought that when the pro version was abandoned, this open version would have been upgraded to that level.

It was great to be able to limit the newsletter going to active users in the last XX days!

Am I right or am I missing something? (Hopefully missing something)

I see that the version I am running on another site is version 5.0, and it is complete and great...

djbaxter 08-20-2012 02:44 AM
I'm still running an older pro version, too (4.3?). Has a minor bug or two but still chugging along doing what it should.

rcull 08-20-2012 01:35 PM
yahoo! I am back to where I was before I started on this ill fated circle:)

I am going to do what I should have then. Ask...

I have suddenly started to get an error when I click the preview html.

*************

Not Acceptable

An appropriate representation of the requested resource /forums/admincp/commbull_textarea.php could not be found on this server.

Just upgraded VB 4.1.12 to VB 4.20 PL 2 and now Commbull doesn't work.

Any ideas?

Check to see if you've got the "Use Cron Based Sending" enabled, if so disable it as this allowed it to work again for me. Was suggested HERE.

I didn't need to adjust the other settings suggested, only the cron based sending one and after that it worked fine.

1) Does anyone have a screen shot of what the incoming html email looks like? I'd like to see some samples

2) What do I have to do to make this work with VB Ver 4.2 ?

If you use these files and use the attached product file it will work fine in 4.2
