Will this mod work for 6.7?

It's a feature in 6.7.x now

Don't see it in 6.7.1 ... ?

Control Panel => Primary Settings => Email => Allow Mail-to-user Option?

We're talking 2 different things, I think. Looking for a profile option to always allow email notification of any thread replied to.

hmm.. yes, maybe we are

In 6.7.x for any message replied to, you can check the box at the bottom of the reply page if you want email notifications. Are you wanting every topic replied to to be autmoatically set to email replies? That would drive me nuts, but I've been accused of spamming too

Yes, a profile check box that allows email notification of any reply to anything you post, whether it's a new topic or a reply to an existing topic. Most other forum software has this (PHP, for example) and it's tres nice and timesaving. I think it makes excellent sense, too - most of the time, you'd wanna see replies to your posts, no?

Not when I average posting in 20+ topics per day, not really. That's just me tho.

If you want it on by default for everyone, just add the checked="checked" to the ubb_newreply.cgi file, line #152

find:

value="yes" /> $vars_wordlets{email_notify}

change to:

value="yes" checked="checked" /> $vars_wordlets{email_notify}

They'll need to uncheck it if they don't want an email.

Allen, truly thou art so unique. Thanx mate.

Allen,

In 6.1.1 my users could check a box in their profile, just one time, and they would always get email notification of any responses to any posts they made anywhere.

The majority of the people do not want that. Same as you. But I have a few who are threatening revolt if they do not get it back. One of them is a co-owner of the site !!! Yikes !

So, your solution here is exactly what the few want, but it is exactly the opposite of what the majority wants. Everyone was happy with the way it was in 6.1.1...

How can I set things back to the way they were in 6.1.1 ? In other words, if someone checks a box in their profile, it works for ALL of the posts they make, regardless of whether they click the box in the thread when they make the reply or not. And yet those who do not want that feature, are nor stuck with it...

Maybe implement your solution, then have a check box in the profile where people can turn off all notification ??? (Except when they click the box in the thread...) Of course, you'd have to tell me how to do the latter as well. LOL (Using kiddleygarten language.)

Allen,

Sorry, I just realized this is the UBBClassic forum.

I am using UBBThrreads 6.5.5

Same question as above. Should I start a new topic elsewhere ?

yes, please - I'd move it but there's a bug preventing that

I can't imagine there's a feature in 6.1.1 that's not in 6.5.5 - was that a mod you installed?

Ok, I'll move it over to the newbys forum.

Thank you.
