Re: [archived] Postmaster -- A simple email-on-post / newsletter manager

OpalCat,

You cannot so what you want right now. There’s an old scrap of code I’m tinkering with to see if I can get you set up, but no promises.

Ok, cool. I think it would be really handy for probably a lot of people.

Here is a basic (and basically untested) way to “aggregate” options as suggested by OpalCat. This requires a simple hack to the plugin code.

Re: [archived] Postmaster -- A simple email-on-post / newsletter manager

Question: Is there a way to bypass the “This is not Spam. “ thing?

Also: I just noticed that I’m using zem_contact_reborn 4.0.3.18 but that there is now a 4.0.3.19
If I upgrade will anything in Postmaster need to be altered?

Re: [archived] Postmaster -- A simple email-on-post / newsletter manager

OpalCat: you should update to the latest zem_contact_reborn. I don’t think there are any changes you will need to make — If you do run into any changes, please keep notes so that we can let other people know. As far as the forms go — they are pretty much infinitely customizable. If you simply want to remove the “This is Spam” checkbox entirely, you can just leave that tag (<txp:zem_contact_checkbox label="This is not Spam. " />) out of the form. That would make your new form:

<txp:zem_contact to="AggregatorTest@benbruce.com" >
<txp:zem_contact_email name="zemSubscriberEmail" label="Your Email:" />
<INPUT TYPE=CHECKBOX NAME="zemSubscriberAggregate[]" value="benbruce" checked="yes" >benbruce<br />
<INPUT TYPE=CHECKBOX NAME="zemSubscriberAggregate[]" value="utility">utility<br />
<INPUT TYPE=CHECKBOX NAME="zemSubscriberAggregate[]" value="random">random<br />
<txp:zem_contact_submit />
</txp:zem_contact>

Re: [archived] Postmaster -- A simple email-on-post / newsletter manager

Ok this is running great on my site, so I installed it on my mom’s site and… it no worky. Subscriptions work ok, but when we go to send either a test message or send a message to the list, the second window with the progress status never opens. Rather, the article edit page just reloads and nothing gets sent. Ideas?

Re: [archived] Postmaster -- A simple email-on-post / newsletter manager

Could it be something as simple as not having pop-ups allowed on thebrowser?
That caused me some angst for an hour or two. ;-)

Re: [archived] Postmaster -- A simple email-on-post / newsletter manager

No, I’m using the same browser as I do when I’m looking at my own site, where it works fine.

Re: [archived] Postmaster -- A simple email-on-post / newsletter manager

Any ideas? My mom has events she needs to send notices out about and this isn’t sending anything.

Re: [archived] Postmaster -- A simple email-on-post / newsletter manager

Sorry OpalCat, not sure how to help here. There must be some difference between the server your Web site is on, and the server your mom’s Web site is on (if you are positive there are no differences in your setups).
