Hello,

Didn't think this belonged in the support board, but is there a way to modify the new message email function so that a member gets a notification email regardless of whether he or she has visited the board recently or use the "mark forum as read" button on the board index?

I have somewhat of a specialized case, a forum with very few members and they aren't worried about their inboxes being spammed with these emails.  


Thanks!

You can enable it in Admin/Boards and Categories/Board, I think that's what you're wanting.


I do installs for $25 and upgrades for $20.

If you are referring to:

Quoted Text
E-mail Members on new threads?
If checked, new threads that are posted on this board will be e-mailed to all members (unless they disable administrative e-mails in their profile).


Then yes, I have the checked,

But it seems like a member will only receive an email notification if ALL the messages on the board are already read. or maybe they only get an email if they have logged in since the last email.  I don't know.  All i do know is it seems to work very sporadically, and the only thing I can think of is its because members aren't reading all the new messages when they log into the board.

i thought i might also mention that I have not received any kind of email from this forum in several months.  new message email, new reply email etc etc.  My email is with gmail, so I don't think that is the problem.  (They don't go to spam either)

Delete this in Post.pl:

Code
				%logged = ();
				fopen(USRLOG,"$members/$mails.log"); # We will ensure this user has only been mailed ONCE (we don't need to fill up their inbox!)
				while( <USRLOG> ) {
					($lstview,$lsttime) = split(/\|/,$_);
					$logged{$lstview} = $lsttime;
				}
				fclose(USRLOG);

				if($URL{'m'} ne '' && $logged{$URL{'m'}} < $lastmessagetime) { $norun = 1; }
				else {
					($t,$t,$t,$t,$t,$t,$t,$t,$lastdate) = split(/\|/,$fdump[0]);
					if(($logged{$msid}-$lastdate) >= 0 || ($logged{"AllRead_$msid"}-$lastdate) >= 0 || ($logged{'AllBoards'}-$lastdate) >= 0) { $norun = 0; }
						else { $norun = 1; }
				}


Thread watching should be fixed.  When you post a reply I'll make sure again ... lol.
