how to modify the posts in the admin panel

[lmorgh]

Hello,
Sorry for digging up an old thread, but I'm in need of a mod that would send an automated PM on new members registration, and this looks exactly what I'm looking for. Unfortunately I cannot get it to work on SMF 2.0.10. 

I can install it through package manager fine, and all the settings are there. The only problem is that it doesn't actually send a PM to new members. Is there any chance for this mod to be updated? Or could anyone provide me with an alternative? I just registered, so I don't really know how things work around here. Hope someone is able to help me out.

To get this to work on 2.0.11 I had to make a small change to Sources/Subs-Members.php following installation:

Code (Find) Select Expand


   // PM to New Members - Select the Username and the ID of the sender
   if (!empty($modSettings['pm_register_id']) && !empty($modSettings['pm_register_username'])){
   
    // Set the PM Body with all the settings
    $pm_words = array(
'{$username}', '{$forumname}'
);

$pm_register_body = str_replace($pm_words,
array(
$regOptions['username'],
'[url=' .$scripturl. ']' .$context['forum_name']. '[/url]',
),
$modSettings['pm_register_body']
);

$pm_register_body = preg_replace('~<br(?: /)?' . '>~', "\n", $pm_register_body);
$pm_register_body = un_htmlspecialchars($pm_register_body);

   $pmfrom = array(
      'id' => $modSettings['pm_register_id'],
      'name' => $modSettings['pm_register_username'],
      'username' => $modSettings['pm_register_username'],
   );
   $pmto = array(
      'to' => array($memberID),
      'bcc' => array()
   );
   }
   
   // PM to New Members - Send the PM only if the mod is enable
   if (!empty($modSettings['pm_register_subject']) && !empty($modSettings['pm_register_body']) && !empty($modSettings['pm_register']) && !empty($modSettings['pm_register_id']) && !empty($modSettings['pm_register_username']))
   sendpm($pmto,$modSettings['pm_register_subject'],$pm_register_body, 0, $pmfrom);


Code (Replace) Select Expand


   // PM to New Members - Select the Username and the ID of the sender
   if (!empty($modSettings['pm_register_id']) && !empty($modSettings['pm_register_username'])){
   
    // Set the PM Body with all the settings
    $pm_words = array(
'{$username}', '{$forumname}'
);

$pm_register_body = str_replace($pm_words,
array(
$regOptions['username'],
'[url=' .$scripturl. ']' .$context['forum_name']. '[/url]',
),
$modSettings['pm_register_body']
);

$pm_register_body = preg_replace('~<br(?: /)?' . '>~', "\n", $pm_register_body);
$pm_register_body = un_htmlspecialchars($pm_register_body);

   $pmfrom = array(
      'id' => $modSettings['pm_register_id'],
      'name' => $modSettings['pm_register_username'],
      'username' => $modSettings['pm_register_username'],
   );
   $pmto = array(
      'to' => array($memberID),
      'bcc' => array()
   );
   
   sendpm($pmto,$modSettings['pm_register_subject'],$pm_register_body, 0, $pmfrom);
}


NOTE: If you have the BCC Messages Mod installed, also do the following:

Code (Find) Select Expand


   sendpm($pmto,$modSettings['pm_register_subject'],$pm_register_body, 0, $pmfrom);

Code (Replace) Select Expand


   sendpm($pmto,$modSettings['pm_register_subject'],$pm_register_body, '', 0, $pmfrom);

To get this to work on 2.0.11 I had to make a small change to Sources/Subs-Members.php following installation:

Even with your edit and the proper ID, Sender name, etc. in settings, Shambles, it's not working (functioning at all) for me.  So I was wondering...  I'm testing this by creating new registrations, then logging in under those usernames to see if I have a PM.  Officially, however, registration is disabled.  So, even though I manually created the new users, must registration be enabled in order for this mod to work?

Why doesnt this work for 2.0.7?

And if it does, can you give me instructions on how to get it working?

Instructions for all .....

1) Settings menu : Admin>>Members>Registration>Settings 

2) Setup example :
*Select the ID of the sender  ..........  1 ...  this is default ID of forum Administrator (if you use second account as Global moderator then use this specific account ID)
Account ID this is visible to administrators  ( 0 ID does not belong to any account - this detail causes most confusions)
 
*Select the Username of the sender ...  Simply add text of your own account name
*The subject of the PM .................... Example.... Important: Your first day at (name of your forum)


This mod works just once per new member registration. 
PM should be a guide (reminder) of specific topics that a new member should be aware of.

My own text of PM for new members. ( example)
This is automated welcome message and a guide of details that all new members should be aware of.

Will work on smf 2.1.2?

Most likely not without some edits to the code.
