Commbull (Community Bulletin) 5.1b · **Released**: 12-16-2009

Community Bulletin:

This mod grabs all the latest information in your forum (posts, threads, events, birthdays, etc) and puts them into a newsletter to be sent to all your members that subscribe.

This mod has been around a long time and gone through many versions. It has been a paid version for a number of years with great success, but it's time to pass on the reigns.

[edit Feb 03, 2011]
Attempted fix for sending to users that are part of multiple user groups

[installation]
- upload some files
- upload the product.xml
- make 1 mod to the usercp options template
- FULL DETAILS in the README.txt

[note] many people ask why all the images, etc don't show up in the HTML version of what is in your forum. This is because most mail clients strip out the CSS and vbulletin is 99% CSS. I have created an HTML version that is nice and clean, but is forum independent. If you know what you are doing, you can edit this HTML file and build your own newsletter.

I had some time and translated the xml file to Turkish and attached it to this post. I hope my fellow country people enjoys it !

I have to add someting to the plugint: there are to many information to send. Sometimes the thread starter, date or other information are not necessarily important. Just thread name and the link is enought.

Community Neswletter sends threads randomly. It would also be an inprovement if the newsletter can be send sectionized eg. :

Section 1

New Post 1
New Post 2
New Post 3

Section 2

New Post 1
New Post 2
New Post 3

When I go to Send Community Bulletin and look at Show info starting from this date: it only goes to 2008 how do I get this up to 2010 and beyond?

Is there a bug?

Did you find a fix to this mine shows 2008 I don't even have a 2010 option. lol

Does this send out automatically, or manually? Can you check it before sending? Can you add in a 'editors note' type thing?

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