Auto-subscribe usergroup members to forum
 
Like the title says, I'm looking for a mod or code aaso that upon registration members are subscribed to a specific forum. So that if a new thread is posted, they will get an email.

I've searched and tested several mods, but none seem to do exactly what I'm looking for. I know I'm not the only one who wants this, so does anybody know how to do this or which mod to use.

Yes, I'm looking for this too. We have users that register and visit the forums a couple of times and then disappear. If they were automatically subscribed to the general forum to received a daily digest of what's going on our hope is this will attract more activity from them. Isn't there at least something that can be added or a mod that will add the ability in admin CP to subscribe a user and/or usergroup to a forum as a default? The user would, of course, still be able to unsubscribe.

Has anyone found a mod for this?

I'm working on one, I should have it ready soon (I'll post the link here).

Mod is here: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=269137

This is under vb4 mods, but the same mod will work with vb3 as well.

Thanks Kevin. I just logged on today looking for this. Question, will we have the option to set the frequency? For example I'd like a digest to be sent once a week. I see that it is that way, cheers! Man I have some other features I want too but I'll hold my tongue.

Hey Kevin,

Is there any advice on how to auto-subscribe current users?

kh99 08-26-2011 06:58 PM

If you have suggestions for new features, please do post them in the mod thread, and I might be able to help.

You could subscribe existing users just by adding records to the subscribeforum table in the databse (it's just userid, forumid, and type of notification, where 0=no email, 2=daily, 3=weekly). The problem is inserting a record for each userid. There's probably some way to do that via an SQL query but my SQL isn't good enough to figure that out. It wouldn't be hard to write a small php script to do it.
