Adding PostID/Timestamp to EMail Notification Subject...

[maayan porat]

We need to add the Post ID or the TimeStamp or any other unique value to the email notification subject WE receive when someone posts a new message or creates a new thread.

We were advised to add the $postid to the "moderator" token:
So we altered the
moderator ($vbphrase[moderator] value to:

"New Post/Thread Notification: $foruminfo[title_clean] $postid"
(added the $postid at the end)

We've tested it and the $postid is completely ignored!

We desperately need to add a unique value to each email notification Subject we receive - PostId, TimeStamp or any other unique value you can think of.

Any idea what am I doing wrong and how can this be achieved?

We are also willing to change the email.php file if needed - (is this the one? and how? or any other relevant file/s)

Any help would be most appreciated.

Have you tried just adding time() ?

[maayan porat]

Just tried this for the moderator pharse:

New Post/Thread Notification: $foruminfo[title_clean] time()

Thanks for your help but this doesn't help.
It has just added the string "time()" after the forum title.

Any other idea that may help?

What exactly are you editing ?

[maayan porat]

I am trying to edit

$vbphrase[moderator]

that is being used to set the subject text for the email notification.
As stated, we are trying to add the PostID or TimeStamp or any other unique value for this phrase.

We can modify the text but cannot add any variable (until now anyway).

Any idea on how we can add a unique value to the email subject?

Thanks.
