About Developer · **Released**: 11-03-2001

First off this is Kier's hack and it's a great one. There are other contributors like tubedog.

Update 16-Nov-2001:
Include News Article(s) in bulletin
Optional - Add "Receive Community Email Bulliten" option to the admin CP. When editing a user you can turn on and off the bulletin.
Fixed lasteventdate bug

These changes are based on version 0.98
Changes/Additions
Preview includes html tags
Email is sent in an HTML format
Post to thread is HTML
Updated install to include changes for vBulletin v2.2
Private Forums marked No by default (if accessmask is ON)
Password removed - Link to Forgot your password added

Installation is still the same. If you already have commbull.php installed you can just copy this file to the same location.

(I'm not trying to take any credit for this hack. Just share the modifications that I made.)
Always backup and test.

Try setting the full path to the require(./global.php) file

No, I am not being prompted for a log-in. And I tried the full path. Same error.

Try clearing your cookies before running commbull.php. It seems like it is trying to run the program and not install it.

I should have let you know in the last post....

I ran it from a different machine that was logged out of my VB and didn't have any cookies.

That was one of the first things I thought of when you told me it should be prompting me for a log-in.

I also tried forcing it to install using the "commbull.php?action=install" link. Should I try a different syntax?

I think it's an admin permissions problem. Have you tried with a different user account that has admin permissions. Yes &action=install is correct. The other actions are info, changelog and preview

The problem is that I don't even get the option to log-in so I can't try it with a different admin account.

I have to leave for the night (dinner with the wife) But I'll pick this back up tomorrow. Thanks for all your help!

It's what you've all been waiting for the "Text" OR "HTML" option,
and other options (of course)
:surprised

The script sends an empty e-mail if sending mails less than 300 at a time. I need someone to confirm this as my users will be annoyed if I keep on sending blank e-mails.

We have sent many bulletins with this script to less than 300 people. It has always worked fine.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
