vb3.5 Commbull
vb3.6 Commbull Note: The 3.6 version is a commercial product, any queries on it should be submitted to: vb3.6 Support Site THIS THREAD IS FOR SUPPORT FOR 3.0 VERSIONS ONLY. PLEASE VISIT THE APPROPRIATE FORUMS (links above) FOR THEIR SUPPORT [valid point] it's been brought to my attention that not everyone knows what this is ... fair enough: This hack is considered a "weekly newsletter" by the fact that it will email members (only sent by an admin) who have opted to receive it new posts, hot threads, etc ... basically a summary of what has been going on since the last time the newsletter was sent out. However there is a vast number of options, and I won't go into detail of all of them ... you can view the the images that I've attached, but u will only get a full idea by installing it. I would say that there is 0 risk of this installation doing any damage to your current install as these are the changes that it does (manually and automatically): - change profile.php and admincp/index.php - add a couple columns to user table (receivebulletin and receivebulletin_type) - add some phrases to phrase table (receive_email_from_commbull, type_email_from_commbull, newsletterformat, commbul) - add a row to datastore table (commbull) - add some html to nav template for admin side So, if you are unhappy with the install. you can just ignore that it's there and it'll never cause any problems ... your next upgrade will overwrite any changes to the index and profile pages and the extra columns in the DB won't be an issue [mods that i've added from vB2 version] - to change languages, comment/uncomment line 22 and 23 to switch from English to German - save prefs (option) - skip to page X in case of mailout freeze - auto redirect to next page (option) - adding personalized text to top of newsletter w/out searching through the two text & html fields ... u'll c what i mean :ermm: [INSTALL] drop the 3 files into the admincp directory and then go to admincp/commbull.php ... follow the instructions and you are good to go. If you find that the option isn't showing up on the control panel after the install, then it's because you aren't using the default phrases. Go into phrase manager, search for 'commbull' and update the fields appropriately. If something goes wrong, don't worry .. it checks for already completed updates to the database to avoid redundancy ... enjoy!! Show Your Support

I must be looking at the wrong thing, there is no option to "update" where i am looking.. under phrase manager?

select any phrase and save it (without doing anything to that phrase). That will update all of them, and you'll be able to see the combull link

I didn't even realize there was a problem until one of our members emailed me to say that they unchecked the Community Bulletin box in their user options, but when they go back to check the settings, it's still checked!
I tested it and found the same problem. Any idea why unsubscribing might not be working? |

In addition you could have a name conflict with another settings. You should check your source code of the parameters. Does the unchecking of the HTML option works? Cheers, |

Am having exactly the opposite issue. Nothing is checked and if you check and save the options, they don't take.

I RECCOMEND NOONE INSTALLS THIS!
It completely broke our system, you can no longer mass prune members, and a number of other problems. The modifications it makes to the user table screw everything up. Plus there is obviously no support for it anymore. Just not worth the effort. |

Interesting. After installing this, I had no problems.
