Private Message: Auto Reply
 

What is Private Message: Auto Reply?
This will give your users the option to have the forum send an auto-reply to PM's they receive.
This can be every PM, or PM's during a specified time frame.

The idea for this mod came from https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=116325 by Hellcat. While the idea came from there, this code is custom, and mine (just thought I should note that).

Features

• Adds an auto reply option to the Private Message system for users.
• The mod can be turned ON and OFF in when a user edits their options.
• The mod can be turned ON and OFF globally by the admin.
• The mod can be set to only allow certain usergroups to use the system.
• Users have the option of specifying a timeframe for the auto reply.

Installation
1. Extract the contents of the zip file.
2. Enter your AdminCP and go to Plugins & Products > Manage Products > [Add/Import Product]
3. Import the product using the `product-pm_autoreply.xml` file.
4. Configure the mod in AdminCP -> Settings -> Options -> Private Message Options

Upgrading
In many cases, all you'll need to do to upgrade is follow the installation instructions above.

The only difference, will be you'll need to allow the files to overwrite. Also, when re-importing the
product file, you'll need to set "Allow Overwrite" to "Yes".

Somehow I think that is for another of your mods ;).

Tagged, as this seems really useful, but the board I run has not yet upgraded to vB4.

Lol, yeah, I corrected it, apparently didn't correct it quick enough ;) :)

3.8.x ?

I would like an option of sending auto-reply when user is off-line/logged out.
5star, installed, nominated.

Eric, This looks exactly what I was looking for. Do you think it would work with 3.8.x, please?

I will see what I can do for 3.8, but I cannot promise I will release a version of this mod for it.

Thanks :) And this should be possible.

Will look into this for the next version.
