known issues

PM's not implemented. code comments show where to add this functionality.

[edit] some bugs fixed...

Nice, would be helpful here... especially for the new people who post to the wrong forums...

Very cool Cal! I agree with Allen, I get a bunch of those "were did my post go" mails so this will be great!

Thanks!

Wouldn't you need the UBB mail function on?

All I get when I try using this hack is an email returned from mailer daemon saying "no recipient specified".

So what would need to be added to send a PM ? Sending a PM would be better than sending E-mail !

I got the same problem,not sending pm,s...:(I know i have not added the right code...So could some1 help please ,with the right code for sending it by pm :):)

Many thanx..

VERY IMPORTANT AMMEND!!!!!!

find:replace with:
otherwise soft moved topics will fudge up.


Just a thought

What exactly is a "soft moved" topic?

I think `soft moved topics` are topics that are moved and closed, rather than moved and deleted.

Has anyone implemented the PM bit yet ? If so, could you tell me how please ?
Thanks !

Nice hack!

Easy to install and VERY usefull!

Thanks cal, good work!

Hey this hack works flawlessly. Thanks!

I am still getting a "No recipients specified" mailer daemon returned to me when I move a topic... Anyone have any ideas?

Very nice, work perfectly on my board. Thank you!

link down

Sorry, the link is not work for me. Can I have any other link of this hack? Thanks.

Hmm can someone upload it to another place or so? i need that hack.

Thx

re-post plz k thx

this would be more or less useless IMHO, because how many members turn the "notify by mail on new PM's" off? in my board i know none, by sending a pm you will get an email anyway, and then some of them may try to reply to the PM's :rolleyes:

but other then that, thats a very useful hack, thanks

Does anyone else have this, since the link isn't working? I really wanted this hack, because of all the newbies who post on my board . . . and it sounds useful . . . anyone?plz?Thanx ahead of time

Opps - the site my hacks are at got moved and i forgot to move my hacks with it. It should be back there now...

Just a thought

thx, that´s a very usefull hack

Thank you!!

i tried to test it and everytime i go to move a topic it says this

. . . anyone help?

Try rehacking the files.

Same here on 6.04f

Upgrade to 6.05, it fixes that problem...

but then i have to re-hack all of my files *sigh* i'm lazy lol, i re-installed the whole msg board and it's still saying that . . .

Cal,
I have this in MultiHack .mhk format if you would like it for release. I can email it to you so you can verify it and make sure it is up to your standards before having Allen link it in the new Multihack section. I know it is a simple hack but it might make it a little easier for some. email@snipersparadise.com

snip1er, if cal OK's that, you can also send me the file and I will update the MHK page here at UBBDev with the MHK file. Allen tends to be busy, then again so am I, but... less than Allen I think. heh

sure, go for it.

Just a thought

God those UBB guys just don't give me any rest, Takes months to get my forums to where I want them and just when 6.04e looked like a good version then 6.04f comes out and now 6.05 - FFS bloody InfoPop =).

Can this hack be updated or improved so it just leaves an automated message as the last post in the topic once moved? Automated E-Mail and PMs just waste CPU time on big forums, a simple post reminder will suffice.

No way I'm moving to another UBB version =), taken 4 months off my life upgrading all the hacks and my own private improvements.

Fix


check public_move_topic.pl and check this line:

and change it to:

hi,

Very useful hack, i installed it without problem on ubb6.04e!

It would be also nice if you could make a hack for "deleted" and "closed" topics


regards

I tried changing that line of code, but it still wont work, i'm still getting the same error when i try to move a topic . . .


Do any of you think you could look at my files, the ones needed to move a topic and tell me what's wrong . . . i don't know what's wrong and I can't figure it out . . .

Mark 99, start using MultiHack by Troy (see above). When a new version of UBB comes out, I can reinstall all my hacks (around 15), upload the files, and be fully upgraded in about 10 minutes, depending on my computer and my connection. Simple push button upgrades that turn days into seconds...Troy is my HERO!

this is a problem with the first 1 of the release of 604f you will need to download a newer version to fix this no mater what

Dito :rolleyes: Seems like we're beating a dead horse here, but has anyone added the PM function? Could someone drop the code on us? Please???

Hi,

Would like to second this. I like the hack, but since I can't send emails, it becomes pretty much useless.

See ya, Marcel

Can someone please update the MHK file available in the UBB database? I just installed this hack on my registered 6.05 and I had to make the above change due to that same error.

Otherwise THANKS FOR THE GREAT HACK!
