Subscription Expiry email / notification

[oldford]

Yeah, I just noticed this also after upgrading to 3.6.4

It looks like VB switched variable names. In 3.5 it was $sub[title] but I haven't been able to figure out what it has been switched to in 3.6.4

I asked over at VB.com and they said $sub[title] had been changed to $subscription[title] however that still doesn't work for me. I still get a blank in the emails.

Hi there

You can do this instead for the Subscription confirmation email:

Open the XML file & find:

vbmail_start();
$useremail = "$user[email]";
$subsubject = "$sub[title] - Royal Subscription";
$adminmessage = "Dear $user[username], \n\nThank you for subscribing to: Royal Membership! You've now been automatically upgraded, and have full Access to The Royal Enclosure and Elite Zones! Let me know if you have any questions.\n\nVisit Forum CellPDA.tk now to enjoy your Royal Membership privileges.\n\nhttp://www.norfolkmanagementrentals.co.uk\n\nYour financial support is much appreciated!\n\nSincere regards\n\ndaPLAYBOY\n\nMega Admin";
vbmail($useremail, $subsubject, $adminmessage);
vbmail_end();

see where it says:

$subsubject = "$sub[title] - type in your own title here"

This will work for you with no problems!

Do the same with the 'Expired' code, too!

Sure, that will work, but it won't output the sub title variable. I mean, if you have multiple subscription names, hard coding the title isn't really a solution. It works ok as a temporary fix, but it would be best to output the sub name as a variable.

I would like to send out a different pm/email for each different subscription.

It is a shame this is not a supported hack by now, because it would be ultimate!

I really need this by OCT as I will be going away for a month, so hopefully someone can come up with one for the community.

Hello,

did any of you solve this for 3.6.8?

Thanks...

Is there anyone to pick this add-on? I wish I can send more than one reminder:

1 month ahead
2 weeks ahead
1 week ahead
1 day ahead

Just go through the code and customize it for your needs. Then add it as a product.

I'm using it with no problems.

been looking for something like this, much respect to you my friend!

Definitely needed.

Just copy the suscription reminder script file as many times as you need. Then change the variables in each file to the appropriate days in advance. Then add the new scripts to the scheduled tasks. I did this and my board now sends out a reminder 1 month, 2 weeks and 2 days ahead of the subscription expiration. It works great.
