Administrative and Maintenance Tools - Unsubscribe link for users to opt out of emails and/or newsletters

Same as this, but tested on 4.0.4.

I send HTML newsletters via the "email users" in the admincp. I add this link to the newsletter so that any users who longer wish to get the newsletter can unsubscribe.

This is a fix for Kirk Y's version for 3.5.4.

Heugabel also ported Kirk Y's to 3.8, but his version was set to double opt out. This in itself can set off spam filters/black lists.

This version fixes the security token error seen with the 3.5.4 version.

So going back to basics, just download and install the product. Then, where ever you want to add a link for users to unsubscribe from admin emails, simply put: http://www.yourforum.com/misc.php?do=unsub. When a user clicks on it, it will ask if they're sure they want to unsubscribe. They click yes, and the option in their UserCP to receive admins emails is set to no. That's it.

There is one template created titled cancel_email_subscription. This is the page they'll see when unsubscribing. It's very basic, and easy to edit.

And lastly, it puts a box on the "send email to users" page that simply says:
"This is the string to use if you want to add 'click to unsubscribe' link: Unsubscribe: $bburl/misc.php?do=unsub".
You can use $bburl/misc.php?do=unsub from the admin cp.

Will this stop all Admin emails? Like private message and subscribed thread updates?

Anything that checks to see if the user has "receive emails from administrators" option checked or not.

works - but the page where it displays is all over the place style wise?

Did this fall through the cracks? Does it work for 4.1.12?

[John Lester]

Ok so on my test forum 4.1.12 pl2 all works fine except ... it does not un-subscribe the user from Receive Friendship Request Email or Receive email from other members.

EDIT: Tweaked the mod a bit to do what I wanted. Thanks for the awesome and simple mod
