Although this is a new hack, I still would say thanks to insanctus, Oblivion Knight and Zero Tolerance for their idea and hacks on sending mass PM from admincp. I also want to thank the members who need this hack badly, and support it.

Some options:

*** Installed ***

And tested - Love It!!!

I like it better than mass emails.

Thank you for a great mod, it was exactly what I was looking for!

I can't find the Send PM's to users link in my admin cp...I did everything that it said to do.

[SuperTaz]

It does not work for me. I did everything it said to do exactly and refreshed the admin cp and it still will not show the "PM All" button in the users or usergroups area. What happened?

[masterross]

Does this automatically ignore quota if PM box was full?

[Alfa1]

I would love to be able to use this hack to send a PM to all Users Awaiting Email Confirmation, that have Hotmail or Yahoo email accounts. That would enable me to quickly resolve the problem of those members not being aware of their activation email going into their overzealous spamfilter.
Any change on a extra search criteria box for 'email'

[John Diver]

Im getting this error everytime I try to send:

Fatal error: Unable to proceed with save while $errors array is not empty in class vB_DataManager_PM in /includes/class_dm.php on line 763

Anyone know whats wrong?

Thanks

I was just notified of a strange problem with this one.

I sent out a PM newsletter today and as always, I set the "Include users that have declined admin emails?" option to NO.

I got a PM from a member telling me that they have their account set to decline admin e-mails, yet has received the last two mass PM's that I sent out. (I tell users that if they don't want our mass PM's, the uncheck "Receive E-mail from Administrators" box)

I checked and they were right, their account was set to not receive them. I went to send a test mass PM to that user, and sure enough...it still would have went to him when it shouldn't have.

Thinking that it was an odd setting in his account, I then went into my own account and set my own option of "Receive Admin Emails" to NO, and then tried to send a test mass PM to my own account. It too still would have been sent to my account to me when it shouldn't have.

Since the mass PM plugin is so similar to the VBulletin "Generate Mailing List" function, I then went to generate an e-mail list using the exact same parameters as the tests above, and neither the member account mentioned above who has the problem nor did my own account show up in the generated mailing list as it is supposed to be.

I really need this to work right, I don't want anyone to be upset receiving mass PMs when they don't want them.

Can anyone help with this?

i have installed this and it works great, but is there a way to set this up to allow supermoderators to mass pm as well?
