Community Bulletin:
This mod grabs all the latest information in your forum (posts, threads, events, birthdays, etc) and puts them into a newsletter to be sent to all your members that subscribe.
This mod has been around a long time and gone through many versions. It has been a paid version for a number of years with great success, but it's time to pass on the reigns.
[edit Feb 03, 2011]
Attempted fix for sending to users that are part of multiple user groups
[installation]
- upload some files
- upload the product.xml
- make 1 mod to the usercp options template
- FULL DETAILS in the README.txt
[note] many people ask why all the images, etc don't show up in the HTML version of what is in your forum. This is because most mail clients strip out the CSS and vbulletin is 99% CSS. I have created an HTML version that is nice and clean, but is forum independent. If you know what you are doing, you can edit this HTML file and build your own newsletter.
I never thought about that ... that will definitely be something we will work on. We have officially put the development of Commbull for vb4 on our work schedule, as we are about a week away from completing the integration of our old forum design into vb4 and will need commbull up and running.
Grandeur, as I remember previous versions of this (I've had them all...) used to pick up the style of the forum default, for the body of the commbull html email.
Has anyone created a version of "commbull_template_html.php" that will do that? (I'm awful at writing html...) For some reason I get a faded blue color on the emails.
Oh, and I think, after a little usage, this is working for me on vb 4.03, without the cron scheduling ability. Which is just fine for me.

This would be a grand request for v3.8. It would work something like how vBA takes on the default style, right?

i have renamed my admincp directory and this mod is not working .. can you please tell me where in the code i should make chanegs?
Thank you
hmm, that's strange. I've never actually moved the directory, but everywhere in the code i see
Code:
$vbulletin->config['Misc']['admincpdir']
. We just upgraded one of our forums to vb4 and the admincp is in another directory, so this week I'll be upgrading the code to vb4 compatibility and i'll be checking the directory stuff ...
However, today is Canada Day and I'm in a big softball tournament, so all this will have to wait till next week ... sorry.
misunderstanding. i didn't mean for you to change the code. Everywhere in MY code, I am using the vbulletin configuration settings to reference the files, so it should work. I'm not sure why it is not working for you, but I don't have time to go through my code to find out. What version of vB are you running?
