What are you bumping for lange? I don't see a previous question from you.

[lange]

...Will this work on 3.07?

This mod looks interesting. My question is whether or not you can tell it to send to only certain user groups. I run a World of Warcraft guild forum and want it to only be sent to select groups, but not all of the users. Thanks in advance for your response

this just adds an extra option to the current email option in vB.... so you can make it only send the mail to certain usergroups



@lange : should work on 3.0.7 nothing has really changed

[[t4e]Kicks]

Kicks]well, duh

I'll be alright

[fishkorp]

Hello,

I've just tried to add this hack but it seems i can't edti includes/function.php
I can't understand why. If i change only one letter in it, then put it back it gives me the same error over and over. I even started a ssh session on server and edit the file through PICO, same error. Whitout editing the file i can't see the forum until i upload the original file again.

Can someone help me on this?

[Norbert]

Perfect thx for this real great modification!

Liebe Grüsse aus Wien,
Norbert
