NOTE:
This hack is not related to, nor using Zero Tolerance's "Admin Mass PM Members" hack.
Although this is a new hack, I still would say thanks to insanctus, Oblivion Knight and Zero Tolerance for their idea and hacks on sending mass PM from admincp. I also want to thank the members who need this hack badly, and support it.

DESCRIPTION:

This system allows admins to send mass private message to members from AdminCP
Some options:
- Detail user search condition, so you can send PM to diffent usergroups, that satisfy different condition
- Send "Test" Private Message,
- Allow/disable smilies
- Override "Receive Private Messages = NO" option?
- set number of PMs to send at once
- Use different user as Sender (by userid)

Any clue on what might be wrong?
Thanks!

Are you trying to import the XML file as a plugin or a product?

No, just sometimes folks try to import XML files through their Plugin Manager rather then their Product Manager. Just checking to see if you weren't making that same common mistake, as I can't imagine why you'd get that error message otherwise.

I had the same issue, you need to upload the .xml into the xml folder then go into admincp and when you go to upload the product go to browse and pic the first .xml file not in any folders. Worked for me!

I have 1550 members and it gave me this after I sent out the mass PM:
Sending Private Message
Showing Users 1 to 1,458 of 1,458

Why isnt it showing the other 100? I only have like 30 banned ppl....

I chose ALL usergroups too except for banned

I have 1,550 members, should I send out 1,550 all at once? Or what does it mean 500/at once etc? I need to send them out to everyone....
