Annouce Topic Not Working

My annouce topic isn't working.  I get to the point that the usergroups page and percentage page show up...but the e-mails don't.  I am using 2.4 for starters and PMs being sent work fine in general just NOT when I use the Annoce Topic. Now I did install the YAGMA mod I heard that it disables this feature so I uninstalled it, but maybe it is still disabled.  Is there away to get this option to work back WITHOUT reinstalling the boards.

Thanks

How are doing this "annouce" thing?

If you're using a mod, you'll need to ask in that mod's support topic.

When you create a post go to options/attachments and select "Announce Topic".

How many members do you have? If your announcing the topic and you have a lot of members, you may be exceeding your host's "maximum allowed" setting.

If you find out what that setting is, you can go to Admin>Mail>Mail settings and set the "Enable Mail Queue" and "Maximum emails to send per minute" settings, to suit.

We have only 18 right now.

Here is post that explains the issue more....

http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=364751.0

It talks about...
"....make sure to re-add the 'announce' part in the index.php's array to make it work again."

So how do I do that?  Thanks

kat

In the index.php file. in the root of your forum, you should see this, near the bottom:

// Here's the monstrous $_REQUEST['action'] array - $_REQUEST['action'] => array($file, $function).
$actionArray = array(
'activate' => array('Register.php', 'Activate'),
'admin' => array('Admin.php', 'AdminMain'),
'announce' => array('Post.php', 'AnnounceTopic'),


If the line with "announce" isn't in it, add it.

I checked and it is already added.

// Here's the monstrous $_REQUEST['action'] array - $_REQUEST['action'] => array($file, $function).
   $actionArray = array(
      'activate' => array('Register.php', 'Activate'),
      'admin' => array('Admin.php', 'AdminMain'),
      'announce' => array('Post.php', 'AnnounceTopic'),
      'attachapprove' => array('ManageAttachments.php', 'ApproveAttach'),
      'buddy' => array('Subs-Members.php', 'BuddyListToggle'),
      'calendar' => array('Calendar.php', 'CalendarMain'),

I really have no idea, then, I'm afraid. :(

I agree!  Thanks for your support.  Maybe some else knows.  Thanks

kat

Yeah, I hope so. This doesn't make any sense, at all, to me.
