Notification Email

Is there a way to send notification emails to members that are subscribed to a thread even though they haven't logged in? As you all know, vBulletin only sends one email until the user returns to the site. I have a very lazy membership that doesn't want to log in to check out new posts. We don't produce a whole lot of traffic, so it wouldn't be much of a strain on the email host.

I haven't tested this, but I think if you create a new plugin using hook location newpost_notification_start with this code:

Code:

$lastposttime['dateline'] = 0;

then it should send a notification to everyone who is subscribed, even if they haven't been online since the last time.

Great! I am going to try this as soon as I have a sec. This is actually a great way to get members back to the site when an old thread becomes active again.

Now I am going to have to spend time snooping at this possible little awesome piece of code!. No problem, I will just add it to my never-ending code snippets to observe from @KH99! :)
