SMF User Email System

[Krysia]

Perplexed: The icon doesn't show even though I have the image in the images folder (for both the default theme and my custom theme) in the member list. It worked great before I upgraded to SMF 1.1. Any ideas?

Thank you.

[vbgamer45]

I just fixed it about 15 minutes ago. Forgot to include the image heh. Redownload the mod

[Krysia]

Thank you! It's all good now.

[ThaRealMatix]

Thanks well actually the xml file doesnt work maybe you want to have a look at this?

One Question, or two to be honest, i have right away: Is there a way to let the mod work with the Staff Page Mod (which is also from) you .. and possibly the gmail Mod?

Hey 1st post here I think lol. 

The mod works for partially really about 3/4 of the way.

It works totally with the default smf theme.

Im trying to get it to work with A christmas theme and it works in the profile but not in the topic. Can any on help....I ve been digging through templates for hours.
I'd appreciate it. I was on the display.template.php trying to edit

// Don't show the email address if they want it hidden.
            if (empty($message['member']['hide_email']))
               echo '
                        <a href="' . $scripturl . '?action=useremail;u=' . $message['member']['id'] . '">', ($settings['use_image_buttons'] ? '<img src="' . $settings['images_url'] . '/email_sm.gif" alt="' . $txt[69] . '" title="' . $txt[69] . '" border="0" />' : $txt[69]), '</a>';

            // Since we know this person isn't a guest, you *can* message them.



with this   

http: hxxp:mydomain.com/smf/index.php?action=useremail;u=1 [nonactive]

[vbgamer45]

Change To

Code Select Expand


if (empty($message['member']['hide_email']))
<a href="' . $scripturl . '?action=useremail;u=' . $message['member']['id'] . '">', ($settings['use_image_buttons'] ? '<img src="' . $settings['images_url'] . '/email_sm.gif" alt="' . $txt[69] . '" title="' . $txt[69] . '" border="0" />' : $txt[69]), '</a>';

My post last I believe is not what was wrong with what I'm experiencing, I was tired and didnt look closer to where I was located that code was under messaging not emailing I
Have messaging disabled.

I did this below all except the

"open useremail.xml in a text editing program then follow the edits"
am I supposed to load this on my server, and I' not sure what I'm to edit

I would suggest doing a manual install its harder but you can do it
Copy User_Email.php to the sources folder
Copy User_Email.template.php to the folder of your theme example default
Copy user_email.gif  to the folder of your theme example default
Then if you use SMF 1.1 RC2
open useremail.xml in a text editing program then follow the edits
Then if you use SMF 1.0.7
open useremail107.xml in a text editing program then follow the edits

What I'm experiencing is in the topics the mail icon is still pull up outlook.

[vbgamer45]

You would need to edit display.template.php
Find

Code Select Expand


// Don't show the email address if they want it hidden.
            if (empty($message['member']['hide_email']))
               echo '
                        <a href="' . $scripturl . '?action=useremail;u=' . $message['member']['id'] . '">', ($settings['use_image_buttons'] ? '<img src="' . $settings['images_url'] . '/email_sm.gif" alt="' . $txt[69] . '" title="' . $txt[69] . '" border="0" />' : $txt[69]), '</a>';

            // Since we know this person isn't a guest, you *can* message them.

Replace with

// Don't show the email address if they want it hidden.
           if (empty($message['member']['hide_email']))
<a href="' . $scripturl . '?action=useremail;u=' . $message['member']['id'] . '">', ($settings['use_image_buttons'] ? '<img src="' . $settings['images_url'] . '/email_sm.gif" alt="' . $txt[69] . '" title="' . $txt[69] . '" border="0" />' : $txt[69]), '</a>';

Thank-You vbgamer45

It is working now I really appreciate the help

thanks, great mod so far    (why isn't this standard ??  )

2 Questions:

1)
I need french and spanish text for it (so that I can modify the given "useremail.xml")
maybe someone did the translation already ?

2)
Is it planned to integrate with "Advanced Visual Verification" from HarzeM ?
I would find this idea very usefull,
otherwise a "bad person" could register himself (personally) as a new user (with captcha),
and then start his spambot to send an email to all 5000 users via your form mailer ?
I mean, could this scenario become true (speaking theoretically) ?

[Dirk67]

puh,
I just found out that you "hardcoded" the english language for the E-Mail-Screen itself and also for some error messages and so on
within the files "User_Email.php" and "User_Email.template.php" (?)

So no matter what language the bord-user chooses,
the E-Mail-Dialog appears always in English, thats not good...

Why don't you use the native system of SMF's language-files as other mod's do ?
is this planned in future ?

[vbgamer45]

When I get some free time I will do it.

Strike everything below.  I solved the problem based on the knowledge that 9 out of 10 times it's generally a user error on my part when it comes to SMF.  But I figured I'd post the problem in case others have the same thing happen to them.  Basically I did not have a title for the forum so there wasn't one showing up in the email.  Secondly, the test board used my email address instead of the admins email address.  Once I realized that the solution was simple.

At first I was going to pass on this one simply because on our forum email addresses are freely passed between members.  However after trying it on the test board I saw how quickly it opened up when sending emails.  Much easier sometimes then opening a boggy email program to send an email.

So I sent myself a test letter.  Worked great but the message was missing the forum name and admins email addy.

Hello Greengoat,

The following is an email sent to you by Greengoat via your account on . If this
message is spam, contains abusive or other comments you find offensive please
contact the webmaster of the board at the following address at
greengoat@xxxxxxxxxx

Message sent to you follows
test email system

Seems to be missing the forum name and an address for the admins.  Instead it points to the sender.

Question though, I thought I read somewhere about linking to the members profile on the site.  Was I dreaming or was it real?  Mine only lists the users display name, but not a link to their profile.

Just wondering because on bigger boards this could require a search of the member list.  Not a terrible thing but a direct link to avoid confusion would be cool.

All this aside, Great Mod.  Let the emails fly!

[vbgamer45]

Profile link currently is not in the mod.

[Greengoat]

Still an excellent mod.
