Installed and working! great job!

Thks will try this one out...
very handy to see when people reply to your reply

There's a slight bug or problem with the e-mail notifications for AOL users.The e-mail notices come with a file download requirement to see who replied to the tread.When opened, the background color of the e-mail is black with the link in a dark blue, in a very small font.But no name is listed in the e-mail.Is there any way you can help the Admin of the Board to change to just a normal notice, something that can just be copied and pasted?

Thanks for all your help.

thanks leshrac...

def, it sounds like you have email set to html, you might wanna try text-only to fix that...

Awesome hack! Works 100%

Hmm, asked for this from the UBB guys, I am sure they will look at this

Hi,
first I wanna say, that this is a great idea, and the changes are clear stated...

BUT I don't know why, but I get an error:
Missing right bracket at /data1/va/akersche/cgi-bin/ubb/ubb_new_reply.cgi line 541, at end of line syntax error at
/data1/va/akersche/cgi-bin/ubb/ubb_new_reply.cgi line 541, at EOF

It seems right to me...
Could anybody mail me the changed scripet of ubb_new_reply.cgi for UBB 6.03

Thanks for your help in advance

Installed w/o a hitch but I had a suggestion. How about being able to turn off this option for certain forums? It's not a big deal for my board but this was suggested by the co-admin of another board (with over 2000 members) when I told her about it. She thought it would tax their mail server too much but that it would be a great help in some of the smaller forums. What do you think?

Does anyone have a .shw file for this lovely hack? I'm not having much luck at amking them by hand and I rather have the ease of uninstall and install. If you do have one handly please e-mail me @ [email protected] or respond in this post.
Thanks

nevermind. I managed to make one of my own. E-mail me if you need it! @ [email protected]

Hey Leshrac... if you EVER see this... please look at this topic:

I need some help with one of your hacks

Was working great till I got to the end. Seems that the last two files you are asking me to edit do not exist in a 6.04 installation. What should I do now?

Fred

I haven't tested it yet, but it sounds very useful! cheers!

Hi,

is it possible to edit the hack so that users are not just notified, but also get the first columns of the reply ?

Thanks
Dennis

Do you think you could add an option that either its sent to pm and email or just email or just pm .. thanks alot

Very useful. Thank you very much!

StarGazer,

The last 2 files are public_edit_post.pl and public_new_reply_form.pl, these are found in the Templates subdirectory of the noncgi directory.

How do I remove this hack? Afte installing it I found out that hte server Im hosting my UBB off of has sendmail turned off. So the hack wont work.

I replaced all of the altered files with backed up copies and cleared the cache. But when I create a topic it still gives the option for Email Notification. Someone please tell me what I might be missing.

Thank you

guys the text file isnt there anymore

where can I get it for my 6.04?

Thanx for the great hack! Should be a standard option in UBB.
Your hack cannot be applied in UBB 6.1(.0.2)
Will you make an update? Please?

TIA

Yes, I want it for the UBB 6.1.0.2

Is there any way to make this so it sends an email to all registered users? Basically, my client wants all registered users to get notifications of all messages posted no matter what. I've been looking into this for months and REALLY need a way to get it done. ANY help would be appreciated. Thanks.

A great hack I installed it a fews back and forgot to say thanks!

P.s I want to upgrade to 6.1.02 is there any chance of this getting the upgrade?

Cheers
J
