It highly depends on your forum needs, if you forum needs a feature such as this, then you will use it,  I made this mod because I actually need it and I share it in the hope other people will find it useful

[Bugo]

What about new feature — a few of fields for custom replies (Reply 1, Reply 2, Reply 3 etc.) + random auto reply.

Thank you for sharing this mod. Do you mind to share how you are using this mod? I believe more people would be interested if they know how to apply it to their forum.

I'm not using it right now since I do not have a forum of my own.

Actually this mod was done by request but I end up using it along with the "by board permissions" and a custom form,  a user in x group will be able to see this form, along with the form the user upload a little zip file (manga translations),  the zip goes to an specific folder and all the data from the form its used to create a topic in a certain board,  then with the autorespond mod I can tell the user more info and more instructions, since the new topic was moderated only the OP and moderators could see the topic and the reply made with the autorespond mod.

This was a very specific use for this mod,  you can also use it to set a custom reply when a user creates an introduction topic, or a birthday topic  or for any other repetitive task.

[Masterd]

Nice mod!

[djflakf1]

explain more detail  your use...  i don't know how can i use it :S

say...

GO ADMIN ... GO OPTION AND... go status.

come on plz .. i'm noob ... because in my forum i don't  see where can i configurate this mode

[Suki]

@djflakf1   if you cannot think of a good reason to install this mod then is better not to install it   to install  mods just for the sake of installing mods doesn't make any good for your forum.

the mod has a redirect option, when you install the mod, the package manager will take you to this url:

index.php?action=admin;area=autorespond

to manually go there go to Admin / configuration /  Autorespond

it should be the last menu.


The reason you don't see the page is most likely that you use a different language than English, in that case you need to translate the mod to your native tongue or rename the /Themes/default/languages/AutoRespond.english.php   to  AutoRespond.yourlanguage.php   where "yourlanguage"  is the your language's name.

[DoctorMalboro]

Can a post made by an admin not have the autobot enabled?

Thank you and the mod is great

[Suki]

Yes,  in AutoRespond.php, on the AutoRespond();  function   globalize  $context and then in the  conditional:

if (empty($modSettings['AR_enable']) ||  !in_array($topicOptions['board'], $ar_boards))
         return;

you can add $context['user']['is_admin']

Code Select Expand


if (empty($modSettings['AR_enable']) ||  !in_array($topicOptions['board'], $ar_boards) || $context['user']['is_admin'])
return;


[Illori]

slight typo

Code Select Expand

$txt['AR_userid'] = '<span style="font-weight:bold;">ID of the user who will post the reply:</span><br /> Ff empty, it will be ID number 1 (admin).';


should be

Code Select Expand

$txt['AR_userid'] = '<span style="font-weight:bold;">ID of the user who will post the reply:</span><br /> If empty, it will be ID number 1 (admin).';

[Suki]
