NOTE:
This hack is not related to, nor using Zero Tolerance's "Admin Mass PM Members" hack.
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.

DESCRIPTION:

This system allows admins to send mass private message to members from AdminCP
Some options:
- Detail user search condition, so you can send PM to diffent usergroups, that satisfy different condition
- Send "Test" Private Message,
- Allow/disable smilies
- Override "Receive Private Messages = NO" option?
- set number of PMs to send at once
- Use different user as Sender (by userid)

i seem to be having problems...

I installed it without problem, but when I tried doing more than 1 usergroup (that had a max of only 25 people) in the combined groups, it didn't go.

I got an internal server error, then tried again, got a time out, then narrowed it down to just 1 usergroup of 2 people (admin) and it went through, but showed up twice in my PM box.

I then tried with the "registered user" group that is about 800 people, and it has been running for about 10 minutes now uninterrupted. How long is it supposed to take?

[djcaseanova]

one more thing, what kind of restrictions will this mod have if users are limited to a certain number of PM's and that sort?

Just curious.... does it override that or will that cause problems?

just installed, have not tested yet.

[djcaseanova]

i guess it worked even though it never "finished" I started getting about 500 undeliverable mail notices in my email from all the email addresses that are no longer valid.

Just one of those things you have to expect from the users who are no longer active I guess....

otherwise good job! It got a lot of peeps back on the forum.

right now, the hack is only for admin, so only those who has permission to access admincp (access the users section) can use the function

I dont think it's a good idea (yet) to allow members (different groups) using the mass PM functions.
that is also related to the part when you use in usercp environment.
it also requires basically a whole new system. So I dont take these suggestions in consideration yet, unless I see some point that it'd be useful.

it would take only seconds, unless you send PMs one by one. Would there be something wrong with your server?

AdminPM will override quota limitation. that would not cause any problem.

the only thing I would like to see added is the ability to automate the next page, i.e. enter the number of seconds before the next block of PM's sent, otherwise in my case I have to click next 30 times waiting about 2-3 minutes in between each.

wait this for long time ago...
