Windwalker Posted July 19, 2011 Report Share Posted July 19, 2011 It's great to see this one done. Can you tell us if the problem with the way IPB had done some files was fixed? In the old version you had to leave guest posting privs open in the Welcome topic to allow Auto Welcome to post there. I had some problems with Spammers finding that are and posting. One of the best and most useful mods for IPB, I can't thank you enough for the hard work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Management Michael Posted July 20, 2011 Author Management Report Share Posted July 20, 2011 It's great to see this one done. Can you tell us if the problem with the way IPB had done some files was fixed? I haven't had a chance to test it yet but I believe so. If you do have any problems, let me know and will see if I can put together a work around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Windwalker Posted July 21, 2011 Report Share Posted July 21, 2011 Okay, thanks for the response. I tested it on two different 3.2 test sites. It works, but I am getting two welcome emails, and two PM's each time I register. (See attachment) Also unfortunately the section you are having it post the welcome topic still needs guest posting privileges. (See attachment) It is also doing two shoutbox welcomes (See attachment) Thought I would include attachments for you to see if that helps.

Management Michael Posted July 21, 2011 Author Management Report Share Posted July 21, 2011 I've upgraded the files, can you re-download then re-upload the latest files again. Should fix the duplicate issue. Should only need guest viewing permission not posting, have you tried just that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Windwalker Posted July 21, 2011 Report Share Posted July 21, 2011 Thanks, that seems to have corrected it. Both with member validation or Admin validation. I have the guest permissions set to "Show and Read". All works fine. No more worry about spam guests posting in there when we do go live. Thanks again so much.

wonderer Posted September 16, 2011 Report Share Posted September 16, 2011 i'd be interested in this, but i'd like to know one thing is it sending message after user validates or immediately after registration? because after updating board i'm receiving email of new users registration before they validate and it's not like i wanted (don't remember if i used a mod) so my doubt is that plugin is working the same way thanks in advance :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Management Michael Posted September 18, 2011 Author Management Report Share Posted September 18, 2011 As far as I can see it sends out the welcome alerts after the group is changed. Should be the same for any twitter or facebook registrations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sunrisecc Posted November 2, 2011 Report Share Posted November 2, 2011 I upgraded by uploading the new files. This was followed by running the board's upgrade routine. All is fine save for the one detail. The admin properties still shows 2.1.0. This was viewed by selecting the app in Manage Apps and then selecting Manage Welcome from the next screen. Did I do something wrong? The Manage Apps page shows it is up-to-date. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Management Michael Posted November 3, 2011 Author Management Report Share Posted November 3, 2011 Probably just an issue with the versions.xml file. Shouldn't make a difference as only file changes were made. But if it does annoy you, an uninstall then re-install should fix the incorrect version.

sunrisecc Posted November 3, 2011 Report Share Posted November 3, 2011 I did try the uninstall and re-install method and the admin module version is still 2.1.0. I just left it although I can change it manually to 2.1.1. It is not a big deal - just checking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sunrisecc Posted November 3, 2011 Report Share Posted November 3, 2011 In autowelcelcome_modules.xml, it is still listed as 2.1.0. At least I know, I upgraded correctly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Management Michael Posted November 4, 2011 Author Management Report Share Posted November 4, 2011 Ah ok, get you now. As it won't have any impact on the mod, will update next version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BinaryData Posted February 2, 2012 Report Share Posted February 2, 2012 Alright. I'm new here, so bear with me. I downloaded the 3.2 Auto Message for IPB, and installed it to the proper directory. When I go to Admin CP > System > Applications & Modules > Manage Applications & Modules. When I go there, there is no "Applications Not Installed". Everything is on the FTP Server, and available. But I get nothing in the Admin CP. Any ideas as to why? P.S. Sorry if this is the wrong posting spot. Little flustered :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Management Michael Posted February 2, 2012 Author Management Report Share Posted February 2, 2012 This tutorial was written for an older version of IPB but the first 2 steps have a little more detail on how to install an application.

BinaryData Posted February 2, 2012 Report Share Posted February 2, 2012 This tutorial was written for an older version of IPB but the first 2 steps have a little more detail on how to install an application. Still didn't help. Everytime I reupload the files, there always a different byte size. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Management Michael Posted February 2, 2012 Author Management Report Share Posted February 2, 2012 Your uploading the actual contents of the upload folder right? Not the upload folder itself to your forums folder? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
