Mini Mods - Email reminder for inactive users 1.1.3

Hey Guys I've been using this mod quite a while and got a bit depressed after not seeing any updates to the mod. So I figured why not making my own modifications and help the people that had requests out a bit. I'm someone that is against spam. This mod becomes fast a annoyance to users that are inactive for a long time. That's why I will be making this mod more functional than before. Look into my to do list for new additions that will come.

Updates:
1 Email Only Function:
This function will limit the total emails send to 1. So if this email is send once they will never get a "miss you" email anymore. So people will get less anoyed and won't rate you as spam right away.

Todo:
Edit number of emails send totally
Not only 1 message but multiple messages possible and chosen with a random

If a user has not posted in x number of days, a HTML email will be sent out with a custom message.

Ive updated the mod so all the settings are editable in the AdminCP

Instructions are included.

I must insist that anyone pre 1.1.2 upgrades asap.

Update 1.1.3 (22/5/08)

* Bugfix for New Registers


Update 1.1.2 (21/5/08)

* Added 1 Email only Function


Update 1.1.1

* Edited default templates
* Added daily report


Update 1.1.0

* Changed the way that emails are sent out by adding the emails to vbulletin's mail queue
* Default cron settings now changed to once per day

To upgrade you need to overwrite the remindermail.php file in the cron directory, and ideally import the product again. The new code will work with the old product file, however I have removed one of the settings in the options as it was no longer needed. as i say it will still run with this there but the quantity setting is now no longer used.

Update 1.0.9

* Cron Log Now Working.
Update by uploading remindermail.php


Update 1.0.8

* Updated code to to exclude users who have chose not to receive admin emails.
Upgrade by uploading PHP file only.

Thanks to djbaxter for help with this.


Update 1.0.7

* Fixed "Sending to new users" bug
* Amended installation code


Update 1.0.6 (14/02/07)

* Added option to turn plugin on or off
* Added option to specify inactivity triggered by lastpost or lastactivity
* Added options to show credit to author or not. (due to some ungrateful, complaining bum squirts that have not made the effort to learn to code themselves and lean on others to make plugins for them)


Uninstall / Reinstall w/ overwrite.

Please note - This plugin adds a link in your footer, however it can be disabled via the AdminCP

Please, if you find this useful, don't disable this option.

Works fine on 3.8.4 PL2...

If it's not working for you, then it's either installed incorrectly, or you have another mod installed that conflicts with it.

will this be updated to 4.0.2?

I installed it at my forum using 4.0.0 and surprisingly .... it worked.

Great mod indeed.

Oh? I'm surprised, since it never worked properly for me under the older vBulletin. It would continue to send out messages to people far more often than specified intervals, which just pissed them off. It wasn't resolved then. Has it been?

Peace,
Gene

I could be wrong, but it doesn't look like the author(s) of this addon are supporting it anymore. I don't see any new posts from them.

Since this has been marked as Re-Usable Code, I've taken the liberty to update this to vb4.x. I'm currently testing it on my site, and will be posting the update soon. Soon as I get a chance, I'll also repost an update for vb3.8.x.

Gene, I believe I know what was causing the issue you were experiencing and I believe I've fixed it.

[Gene Steinberg]

I look forward to the release of your vB4.x update.

Peace,
Gene

I read your post in the v4 thread, and just wondered if there was any news on when a revised update to the vB 3x version might occur? I've been watching this thread for several months now, just hoping we were on the brink of an updated file that will run properly on vB3.8.6.
