User Reminder

[jokoba]

helo

after the 2nd reminder does it delete users?
also should i do the add it to all styles or only subsilver2 will be enough?

Hi jokoba,

this MOD does not delete users automatically - but you have a list of users (including the numbers of reminders they got) and the option to manually delete them.

Regarding your second question: I don't know because I'm not sure at the moment what the changes in the two template files are for. (Guess, you can ignore these changes. Lefty?)

hi,
wolfgang, thanks for helping out

jokoba, you only need to make the template changes for those styles that are used by members that have access to the user reminders part in the ACP as otherwise they won't be able to e.g. select members from the memberlist to put in the protected users list.

thank u.
what happens after the second mail please? nothing?

[lefty74]

not automatically, no.

if you want to delete the user, you will have to do that manually (can be done via user reminder module tho)

[jokoba]

thankss

Hi,

that shouldn't be difficult to code as there is a column called user_lastpost_time in USERS_TABLE. Maybe even

$user->data['user_lastpost_time']

would work in an appropriate IF statement (e.g. placed in function page_header)

Just be aware that 'user_lastpost_time' also includes PM-messages, so this may reflect either a posts or a private message and may be inappropriate under some circumstances

Thank you, updown - I wasn't aware of this.

@DjMorley:

OPEN includes/functions.php
FIND:

Code: Select all

	// Generate logged in/logged out status

BEFORE, ADD:

Code: Select all

	//-- mod: warning for lazy posters by IPB_Refugee --------------------------//
	if ($user->data['user_id'] != ANONYMOUS)
	{
		$warning_after_days = 30;
	
		$sql = "SELECT MAX(post_time) AS last_post_time
				FROM " . POSTS_TABLE . "
				WHERE poster_id = " . $db->sql_escape($user->data['user_id']);
	
		$result = $db->sql_query($sql);
		$row = $db->sql_fetchrow($result);
		$db->sql_freeresult($result);
	
		$last_post_time = (int) $row['last_post_time'];
	
		if ((time() - $last_post_time) > ($warning_after_days * 86400))
		{
				$template->assign_vars(array(
					'SHOW_LAZY_WARNING'	=> true,
				));
		}
	}
	//-- end: warning for lazy posters by IPB_Refugee --------------------------//

You can adjust the variable $warning_after_days to your needs. If you want the warning to appear after 14 days without a post, change

Code: Select all

		$warning_after_days = 30;

to

Code: Select all

		$warning_after_days = 14;

Now you can use the switch

Code: Select all

<!-- IF SHOW_LAZY_WARNING -->
	your HTML code here
<!-- ENDIF -->

in any of your template files.

E.g. put

Code: Select all

<!-- IF SHOW_LAZY_WARNING -->
	<h2>Hi, {S_USERNAME}!</h2>
	<p>Please start posting immediately! Thanks.</p>
<!-- ENDIF -->

into your overall_header.html. It's simple HTML. And don't forget to purge the cache.
