AutoPM after addBuddy · **Released**: 01-08-2006

What: This will send an automatic PM to a user after you add him/her to your Buddy List. The PM you automatically sent is saved within your outfolder and the Admin can modify the title and message of the PM by changing the phrases.

1 Product (1 plugin and 2 phrases)

Versions / Features:

1.0.0 - released on 1/9/06
1.0.1 - added automatic approval link into body of PM received by user
added a check to prevent looping of the PM if the receiver already has the sender on his/her buddylist
1.0.2 - added an anti-harassment link in the PM to deter users from "annoying" others into becoming their friends.
added link so receiver of PM can easily view sender's profile.
1.0.3 - cleaned up code and added link for recipient of PM to view sender's profile from within PM
1.0.4 - Fixed bug which was wrongly sending PM to someone when user added someone to his/her ignore list

To Install: Just import the xml file as a product from within AdminCP>PluginSystem>ManageProducts>Add/ImportProduct

To change the title of the PM, edit $vbphrase[anti_autopm_bud_tit], and to change the message of the PM, edit $vbphrase[anti_autopm_bud_mes].

PLEASE REMEMBER TO BACKUP BEFORE YOU INSTALL!

Thanks: Thanks to Andreas for writing the [HowTo] Send PM's Automatically. This was inspired by Cloud Warrior's really cool vbFriends hack, which lacked this functionality and it seemed like many people would want it.

about: I'm taking this out of beta, as i think it's working all right by now. Any advice on how to improve this, comments, or bugs - are more than welcome, as I will do my best to address all.

If you use this, please click the install thingie

Well, I was hoping somebody would help me with the problem I was having, but I guess not. That won't stop me from helping someone else.

I'll post what I figured out in a few minutes, let me pull the information.

Please keep in mind that this is only a temporary fix, it is not the best way of doing it, but it does work.

The best part about this is... when Antivirus gets around to updating this the correct way, all you will have to do is reinstall and overwrite what is already there.

I hope this will help you.

^ Trouble with that is it only works when you click on the link from someone's profile, not when you just add someone through the actual buddylist page.

QUESTION & FEATURE:
in the PM, does it allow the user to disallow / delete the friend request?
Say "adam" adds "lucy". lucy gets a PM saying she's been added, and also allowing her to add him.
in that PM, Lucy should receive a link to delete the friendship from occuring - because maybe shedoesn't want to be even seen on his profile.

Any updates to when you will add this feature or are you going to abandon this hack?

Please keep in mind that this hack has nothing to do with "friend requests". You might be confusing this hack's functionality with Cloudwarrior's vbfriends hack (which was what inspired this hack). This hack simply sends a PM to "user 2" when "user 1" adds "user 2" to his/her buddy list. To answer your question, when "user 2" receives the PM, he/she is able to either add "user 1" to his/her buddy list, or if "user 2" feels "user 1" is harassing, add "user 1" to his/her ignore list.

I will not be abandoning this, and I will be updating this to 3.6.x sometime after I fully upgrade my sites to 3.6 which I am currently in the process of doing so.
