[ask] couldnt send email when new topic is created

Hi,

thank you for the great mods, i have a problem. My board is a private board so all topic / reply must have moderator approval.

The problem now is when a new topic is created, the use dont received email notification. and the problem goes the same for post reply. Even i already created all groups is subscribe to the topic.

Can you give me a clue for this ?


Thanks before

Are you asking about this postnotices mod or are you asking a more general question about how to assure that people get emails notifying them of new topics or replies? If you are just asking why phpbb's normal email notifications are not going out for new topics or replies once they are approved, that's a general support question about phpbb that you should probably ask about in the support forum (viewforum.php?f=46).

If you are asking about this postnotices mod, keep in mind that it will only allow a user to send out a special email notification if the user has permission to post without approval (and if you don't trust a user to post without approval I'm not sure it makes sense to allow him or her to send out his or her own emails anyway).

And if you are asking how to allow people to get email notifications for every topic or reply (not just once between visits) after a topic or reply is approved (or when no approval is needed), see my boardwatch mod here: http://www.phpbb.com/customise/db/mod/board_watch/

You'll see that one of the faqs for boardwatch (at http://www.phpbb.com/customise/db/mod/b ... /faq/f_673) explains how to modify things so that users who have the power to approve topics or replies get email notifications telling them there's a new topic or reply to approve.

Hope this helps.
