Send a Private Message to Public Group Leaders Upon a Join Request

I'm still surprised this isn't built in yet. What this mod does is to send a private message to all of the leaders of a public group, letting them know that somebody wants to join the group.

To install:
Add a new phrase: (obviously, change the url to go to your board )
group_memberships_message

Text:
A request has been made to join the public group: {1}, of  which you are a leader.
You may validate the user here

Then, upload the plugin and turn it on. Easy as pie. Enjoy and thanks to Kirby for his tutorial on how to send private messages.

Is the phrase GLOBAL?

Have a look at this:

No need to use the while loop for the $pmdm->set then.

You had a chance to look at this yet, amy?

[amykhar]

Yes. It's in the updated version.

Sometimes I can reproduce this, sometimes I can't. One of my users got this today, after he typed in his reason.

Any weird characters in the reason?

Nopers. Short and to the point, all regular characters. He was actually bright enough to try with punctuation and without, and both failed.

Got an error in RC3, that I did'nt get in RC2:

Database error in vBulletin 3.5.0 Release Candidate 3:

Invalid SQL:

DELETE FROM usergrouprequest
WHERE usergrouprequestid IN();

MySQL Error : You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ')' at line 2

This error has been reported, and can be fixed, by looking here: http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/bugs3...iew&bugid=1286
