Send Message Auto Reply

1 Attachment(s)

When a user sends you a message using sendmessage.php this mod will send the user an auto reply message.

You can edit the subject and the message body in the options

How To Include HTML In The Email
By default vBulletin doesn't allow you to send HTML in an email. It can also not be changed with a plugin so you have to do some manual file edits. So...

Open "includes/class_mail.php"
Find:

PHP Code:


		
			
$headers .= 'Content-Type: text/plain' . iif($encoding, "; charset=\"$encoding\"") . $delimiter;

Replace with:

PHP Code:


		
			
$headers .= 'Content-Type: text/html' . iif($encoding, "; charset=\"$encoding\"") . $delimiter;

You can now send HTML with emails. This includes all other emails sent from vB.
Please click install :)

I tried this but whenever I changed the header to text/html it made the email contents into an attachment.

Do you know how to fix this?

Is this Mod for Admin/Moderators only or will it wok for every member? (Hope not)

Silly question I guess....

hmm, I'll have to take a look
I'd really like to add a link or two to the email
I get a lot of "why am I banned" emails, and I'd like to include something like...

If you are wondering why you are banned from site.com, please check out the rules (and have a link to the rules thread) :up:

There are a few tutorials out there showing you how to send emails that have HTML in then on vB and they envolve a hard coded hack. So I don't think it would be something that could be done with this mod.

Hi Ben,

Thanks again, the response message works perfectly with the code edit :)

Just one little problem, the email received from the sender using the sendmessage.php is different from the original, I'm sure it's because it's not coded in .php anymore, but was wondering is there a way around this?

See - http://i27.tinypic.com/5ybx1s.jpg

Thanks again for this,

Patrick :)

To be honest no. The best way to fix that would be to edit the phrases of the emails being sent and replace the new lines with <br />'s.

Its because vB isn't made to send HTML emails, and the fix I posted wasn't a very good one :o

Here is the code;

Code:

 

The following message was sent to you via the $vboptions[bbtitle] Contact Us form by $name ( mailto:$email ).

<br/>

<br/>

--------------------------------

<br/>

<br/>

$message

<br/>

<br/>

--------------------------------

<br/>

<br/>

Referring Page: $url

<br/>

IP Address: $ip

<br/>

User Name: $bbuserinfo[username]

<br/>

User ID: $bbuserinfo[userid]

<br/>

Email: $email

All the best,

Patrick

cool but the member who gets the auto email see himself as sender it doesnt show the send as forumname but sender@ forumname

also whats the difference of using this instead of adding an autoresponder in cpanel ?
