LOL I thought that a few hours after posting my message!!! :o Must admit though that it is a function I'd like to see further development on. With the Web xing software that I'm using less and less you can schedule the digest to be dispatched at a particular hour on a particular day a week.

:)

You can do that in vbulletin too :)

Just go into the Scheduled Task Manager and you'll see the cron jobs located there with the times they are set to run.

Although, depending on board traffic will decide the exact moment they run.

Something I wish they would change in vbulletin is how the scheduled tasks are called. But that's my opinion.

I tried an Update from 2.2 to 2.6...

In 2.2 it worked fine...with some little old problems.

But after that update (I think I made it after reading carefully the instructions)
I had big problems....all options I can make in my adminCP have no effects, when I change them.

example: all mails are outgoing by one adress for all (I set it to "one adress for each forum)

smilies are not shown right anymore.....


so, do anyone have an idea, what my mistake was ???

I wanted to start with that as an easter-present for my users.....but now :confused:

Did you reupload all the files?

yes, reuploaded all the files.

but there was still the "ei_folder"(INBOX) in my adminCP...which should not be there, right ?

in the mysql database "ei_folder" was missing, so that I can`t store the changes. I made it quick&dirty and added the"ei_folder" as a new table, so that I can store my forum-changes, but nothing happened....

That should be there. You added an ei_folder field to the forum table of your database right? You didn't create a whole new table right?

Edit one of the forums and put in INBOX for that field, then save and edit it again to verify it took the change.

That`s exactly what I did !

In 2.2 the "ei_folder" was there, and in 2.6 not, right ?

The "ei_folder" is not the big problem....in 2.2 it`s at all working....but not so fine, like the 2.6 sounds to do.

But the upgrade to 2.6 do not send mails by the special forum-adress and the smilies are not shown...sending mails ans answering by mail is working !


So I think there are only some little mistakes...not the whole one !


Thanks for your time.

It sounds like your settings are not what you want in the vbulletin options.

First off, you are receiving plain text emails. This is not a bug, this is a feature :)

Go into Vbulletin Options -> Email Integration Settings

There you can select for everyone to either be able to select to receive emails by plain text and html, or you can turn that off and force everyone to receive plaintext or html.

Right now, you have it so that users can select which has the default of sending plain text emails unless they go into their edit options page and select to receive html emails.

As far as the other goes, make sure you do not have it set to send emails from a single user and that the username and from address is blank in the Vbulletin Options -> Email Integration Settings

see the pics....but all mails are send by the mail adress from my forum

I think I got the problem....don`t know how....but I did.... :)
