[PURPOSE]
send a newsletter to all subscribed members (html or txt) notifying them of various going-ons in the forum:
- new threads
- hot threads
- b-days
- events
- etc
sorry. i'm just trying to avoid getting this deleted as SPAM, so i can't post a link to the old thread.
This one is very similar as we worked on it together. But, the plugin has been updated, code cleaned up a bit. Most of the time has been spent on making it work for 3.6. If I have time, i will ad some of the new features from 3.6 to 3.5.4 if they are major (and easy to adapt), but, for the most part, this is only here to allow people who haven't upgraded the opportunity to use it (as nopid removed it).
Ah, ok m8 no worries....I have the 3.5.4 version working on 3.6 (upgraded is why)
Would i be better of uninstalling and using the 3.6 version or might as well stick with whats working alright
there were a couple security fixes (minor) and the new one will run as a cron (schedule task). If you do decide to upgrade, there is no need to uninstall ... just upload (and import) over top of the previous install.
as i mentioned in the original post, it's not by choice. The client that has paid for most of the developing for the original hack (he has over 50 forums), didn't want the hack to be public because he didn't want his competitors to use it. I told him that I didn't think that was fair and this is the compromise that we came up with. If it is popular enough, this will also allow me to spend more time on it (like adding the cron ability).
I appologize, as i know it should be free. I'm happy to bow down if someone builds one better.
I dont know why are you charging for something that cant be customized. I mean, the old hack lacked of a lot of optiones needed to be a really good newsletter, and if this is a port...
Besides, you dont include the full specs of this hack, how would we pay for something not explained?

Question I am running the version Nopid created and since you mentioned this has some security fixes and the code is cleaned up a bit do you recommend upgrading to this version. I have two sites one running vb 3.5.3 & 3.5.4 and no plan to upgrade to 3.6 for a long while.
If you suggest upgrading how do I do so without breaking anything.
