[2.0.18] Extended Private Message Notification

[freddie]

works perfect

nice mod

[azw]

I think Extended Private Message Notification is working well for me on 2.0.20. But now I'm having trouble with another mod, John Abela's Send PM on User Registration mod: http://www.phpbb2mods.com/downloads.php

It's possible that Abela's Send PM on User Registration mod isn't compatible with 2.0.20. Unfortunately, he's no longer supporting it, although it looks like the new owner of phpbb2mods.com may take up that task.

Have others noticed that the Extended Private Message Notification doesn't work with John Abela's Send PM on User Registration mod?

Looking over the code it again, I can't imagine what in this mod would affect the Send PM on User Registration mod.

I'm pretty sure that the Abela mod is also not working in a different 2.0.19 forum, so it's probably that mod that's got the problem.

Help! I have this installed, and it works great. Only problem is, that when i submit i get this:

Code: Select all

Warning: Compilation failed: missing terminating ] for character class at offset 1 in /home/wiedler/public_html/igor/forum/includes/bbcode.php on line 843

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/wiedler/public_html/igor/forum/includes/bbcode.php:843) in /home/wiedler/public_html/igor/forum/includes/page_header.php on line 593

The mail is sent without the PM text, my bbcode.php looks like this (843 und 844):

Code: Select all

   $text = preg_replace('/[/', '[', $text);
   $text = preg_replace('/]/', ']', $text);

I am having this same problem. Although I didn't stop to check whether the E-mails worked or not, because I wanted to remove the errors right away as mine is a live site.

It's a great idea and I'd love to incorporate it... am I doing something wrong?

[azw]

Does it really look like that?
Or is it the following?

Code: Select all

$text = preg_replace('/& #91;/', '[', $text);
$text = preg_replace('/& #93;/', ']', $text);

(Remove the space between the & and #.)


Check the line above that, and maybe hte line below, too.

Code: Select all

	$text = preg_replace('/\[\/code:?1*\]/', $q2, $text);

	$text = preg_replace('/[/', '[', $text);
	$text = preg_replace('/]/', ']', $text);

	$text = preg_replace('/\[list\]/', $newline . '\\1 '. $lang['List'].':'.$q1, $text);

Are all the \ , / , [ , and ] there?

It's working for me, so it's possible there's some small typing error.

Why not try that MOD on a clean phpBB? If it still doesn't work, then something's wrong.

I missed the report sent by eviL<3 in the previous page

Anyway, do you get that error on every message or certain messages? If it only happen to some messages, can you provide me a copy of that message?

[Stevish]

Actuallt, the errors appear on the top of the main index page, not on any E-mails.

[ycl6]

I just tested the MOD again on a clean phpBB 2.0.20, but I don't see any error message.

My question is the same, does that happen everytime when you try to send private messages?

If so, zip a copy of your includes/bbcode.php, upload somewhere and post the link here, I'll see what's the problem.

Hi, Ycl6,
Yeah, that's exactly what I did (test on a fresh install). Thanks for the reply. That validates my sense of what's going on. There must have been some big changes in the code around in recent versions of phpBB.

[Stevish]

Whoops...

Ok, yeah, it was me. I reinstalled it and it works great! I'll vote on it soon, but from the looks of it, I won't be having any trouble

[ycl6]

Good to hear it works now, Stevish.

Excellent work Mac!!!!

I have an extra question. It's kinda related to your MOD.

My problem is this line in privmsg.php:

Code: Select all

$emailer->replyto($board_config['board_email']);

This line makes that any user, when receiving a new PM in the phpBB forum, receives an email, with in its header: reply to: [email protected]

However, some of my users reply to this address, which means that I (Administrator) receive those emails, with the content of the original PM in it.

In other words: some users reply to the notification email of the PM instead of replying to the PM received in the board.

Two problems:

1. I can read the content, even though it is a private message

2. The user thinks that he did reply on the PM he received, while the original sender of the PM still waits for the reply...

Possible solution:

change field 'reply-to' into [email protected] instead of [email protected]

Could someone with a little more php-experience help me out?

[ycl6]

To be honest, with or without this MOD, users that mis-read the email notification would reply to the email instead of using the PM system.

If you don't want to receive any email from your users, for example in this case or when someone reply to any email notification, e.g. topic subscription notification, why not just change the email address you entered in the ACP?
