Mass Admin PM v1.5

This is a minor upgrade from the first version, 1 main new feature, and a little code revision.

Features:
Number of PM's to send at a time

It's a server intensive process and you don't want to ultimatly send to everyone at once on your forum unless you have like 50 member's.

New Usergroup Selecting

Your now able to select all, 1 or certain usergroup's to which the PM is sent to, so if you wish to send to staff, Ie, Admins, SMods + Mods, you would simply check all those, making it much easier and saving time.

Very simple install, take you 3 seconds, im not joking, yet very useful, a preview is below for those desiring to see what it look's like first.


Enjoy,

Thanks for the update. bravo.

However I have a minor problem. The usergroupd I have set-up are for members to join as a secondary usergroup. They show up on the window, but when trying to send a PM to users I get the error

There are no user's within the specified usergroup(s) to PM. Please go back.
select * from user where usergroupid IN(24) order by userid

Can you add support to pm users in the group that are in them as secondary users as well?

[Zero Tolerance]

It's something ill have to look into, i've never used secondary usergroups (never saw any reason to) and im not exactly sure how they are constructued =)

awsome update, but just a question...

does the user that disables PMs in the USERCP still recieave a PM from the admin or do they have to have it enabled.

[Zero Tolerance]

They still get the PM, permissions are by-passed, no matter what settings they have, they will recieve this PM

I would need support for secondary usergroups as well.

I think that the is_member_of() function accounts for secondary usergroups as opposed to using the $bbuserinfo[groupid] (that's probably not exactly right)

Dune had the following modification posted in the original Thread for version 1.0, however at first glance I don't see how this will apply to the new version 1.5.

Here's what you need to do:

In admin_pmall.php

Find:

		// Collect Array Of Members Within Specified Usergroup
		$Get_Members=$DB->query("select * from ".TABLE_PREFIX."user where usergroupid='{$_POST['to_usergroup']}' order by userid");

REPLACE WITH:

		// Collect Array Of Members Within Specified Usergroup
		$Get_Members=$DB->query("select * from ".TABLE_PREFIX."user where usergroupid='{$_POST['to_usergroup']}' or membergroupids REGEXP '[[:<:]]{$_POST['to_usergroup']}[[:>:]]' order by userid");

Find:

		// Collect Array Of Members Within Specified Usergroup
		$Get_Members=$DB->query("select * from ".TABLE_PREFIX."user where usergroupid='{$_GET['usergroup']}' order by userid");

REPLACE WITH:

		// Collect Array Of Members Within Specified Usergroup
		$Get_Members=$DB->query("select * from ".TABLE_PREFIX."user where usergroupid='{$_GET['usergroup']}' or membergroupids REGEXP '[[:<:]]{$_GET['usergroup']}[[:>:]]' order by userid");

This will find members who are in the specified group as EITHER their primary or as a secondary. Hope that helps. Credit for the REGEXP goes to my sysadmin Dan (the Man).

Im not too sure on using REGEXP and IN within a query, Ie: where field REGEXP IN(bla,bla,bla)

But ill run some tests
