Email reminder for inactive users 1.1.3

Hey Guys I've been using this mod quite a while and got a bit depressed after not seeing any updates to the mod. So I figured why not making my own modifications and help the people that had requests out a bit. I'm someone that is against spam. This mod becomes fast a annoyance to users that are inactive for a long time. That's why I will be making this mod more functional than before. Look into my to do list for new additions that will come.

Updates:
1 Email Only Function:
This function will limit the total emails send to 1. So if this email is send once they will never get a "miss you" email anymore. So people will get less anoyed and won't rate you as spam right away.

Todo:
Edit number of emails send totally
Not only 1 message but multiple messages possible and chosen with a random

If a user has not posted in x number of days, a HTML email will be sent out with a custom message.

Ive updated the mod so all the settings are editable in the AdminCP

Instructions are included.

I must insist that anyone pre 1.1.2 upgrades asap.

Update 1.1.3 (22/5/08)

* Bugfix for New Registers

Update 1.1.2 (21/5/08)

* Added 1 Email only Function

Update 1.1.1

* Edited default templates
* Added daily report

Update 1.1.0

* Changed the way that emails are sent out by adding the emails to vbulletin's mail queue
* Default cron settings now changed to once per day

To upgrade you need to overwrite the remindermail.php file in the cron directory, and ideally import the product again. The new code will work with the old product file, however I have removed one of the settings in the options as it was no longer needed. as i say it will still run with this there but the quantity setting is now no longer used.

Update 1.0.9

* Cron Log Now Working.
Update by uploading remindermail.php

Update 1.0.8

* Updated code to to exclude users who have chose not to receive admin emails.
Upgrade by uploading PHP file only.

Thanks to djbaxter for help with this.

Update 1.0.7

* Fixed "Sending to new users" bug
* Amended installation code

Update 1.0.6 (14/02/07)

* Added option to turn plugin on or off
* Added option to specify inactivity triggered by lastpost or lastactivity
* Added options to show credit to author or not. (due to some ungrateful, complaining bum squirts that have not made the effort to learn to code themselves and lean on others to make plugins for them)

Uninstall / Reinstall w/ overwrite.

Please note - This plugin adds a link in your footer, however it can be disabled via the AdminCP

Please, if you find this useful, don't disable this option.

No there shoun't be any trouble. But don't forget to add the userrgroup where the user is moved to in the list of usergroups that get a email.

Everything should work right then :)

i was under the impression from the old mod thread that 1.11 was pretty unstable and couldn't send email in html. did you recode to fix the issues? i've been watching that mod some time now because i like the idea, but the ongoing issues and lack of updates concerned me and therefore i didn't install it.

05-22-2008 06:57 PM

Hmmm I don't know about the email in HTML function but thanks it's a good idea if it needs to be implemented. Could you explain me how exacly you want it in html ?

EDIT:
About the stability. In my opinion this mod always has been stable. I ran version 1.11 for like 3 months and never had problems with it. Most instabilities come from misconfigurations and other plugins. As I can't test for those instabilities I can't help you. The only thing you can do is or test yourself or post the errorcode here and the plugins youre using and I could find out what the problem could be.

I can't get this feature working properly after just downloading/installing tonight on 3.7.

Settings are set as 30 days inactivity, 90 day email frequency and only send once is off. Have several usergroups listed, many of which have inactive users (we have over 800 members and only around 200 are currently active within the last month), but whenever I run the schedule manually I always get the following response:

Quote:

Inactive User Reminder Emails
Makes no use of the reminder Count

Found 0 Inactive Users.

Done

Have tried turning "inactivity based on last post" to either setting as well as changing other settings, but it still does the same thing :confused: I can't quite work out what the problem is.

Would appreciate some support.

Cheers,

Nikki.

First try version 1.1.1 and check if it works. If it doesn't there is or a plugin that has a conflict. Or you didn't uninstall the last on properly. Uninstall it and try installing it again.
Else you will need to give me the password of your admin account Database and FTP so I can check it :)

It also could be that you did install a previous version that send the mails if so it will not send any mails till it hits 90 days later :). It doesn't mean it will send mails every time you click the button.

Which 1.1.1 are you referring to? I only see a link for 1.13 :confused: I did try the latest version of this one which did work, but wouldn't stop sending out multiple copies of the emails to members within a small timeframe so I uninstalled/removed it. I'm very reluctant to reinstall it after that, especially when I know I had the settings right.

I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling this version, but its still not working. I set it to just one usergroup, yet it came up the following when I ran the schedule manually:

Inactive User Reminder Emails
Makes use of the reminder Count

Found 689 Inactive Users.

Done

The group I set only had 33 members in it :confused: And it didn't send any emails out to anybody anyway, even after displaying this.

I only sent out reminder emails to one other usergroup with the previous version by the other author, yet it refuses to send out anything even with other groups for this one. So its definitely not the 90 days later issue either.

Cheers :)

Hi robert, it seems like this version is not working correct.
it keep sayin invalid email address on all members in my forum.
Take a look here.

This email shows that the product is installed and working as it should be. Emails sent to:Rohlik dinkoman cobra405 PlayBoy . We tried to email the following users, but their email address was invalid:

Any idea why or if theres a way to fix the problem.

The line: "We tried to email the following users, but their email address was invalid:" shows on every report. It merely states, in that case, that no users had invalid email addresses.

When there's a username after that message, then that username is linked to an invalid email address.

Hope that's clear 'ish ;)

Well, with the plugin you referenced, the eariler version (1.9) sent out HTML emails. I didn't have something specific in mind, other than I'd like to be able to set the emails up to include my site logo and some very simply HTML styling. I know vb's emails are text by default, but have also been watching a mod or two that ads the functionality to any email vb sends.

i haven't run any of them yet, so i don't have an issue myself. i was just going from reading the support thread, pretty much whenever someone had a problem, they were told to dl the older version. just wondered if you had addressed something somehow, but it sounds like it wasn't a problem for you...
