Re: [ARCHIVED] Postmaster (0.4.4) -A simple newsletter manager
ok I found how to chenge the “from” to a name:
edit the Postmaster Library and search for
$headers = "From: $listAdminEmail".
replace $listAdminEmail
with
Your name <blabla@domain.com>
or
Your name <$listAdminEmail>
so after all you got:
$headers = “Your name <blabla@domain.com>”.
or
$headers = “Your name <$listAdminEmail>”.
enjoy ;)

Re: [ARCHIVED] Postmaster (0.4.4) -A simple newsletter manager
Hi there,
I’m trying to add the option to Subscribe OR Unsuscribe to a newsletter called “default” in the same form. And it doesn’t work at all.
It looks like this:
<txp:zem_contact to="email@domain.com">
<txp:zem_contact_email name="zemSubscriberEmail" label="Your email" />
<txp:zem_contact_secret name="zemSubscriberLists" value="default" />
<txp:zem_contact_checkbox name="zemDoSubscribe" label="Subscribe" required="no" value="on" />
<txp:zem_contact_checkbox name="zemUnSubscribe" label="Unsubscribe" required="no" value="on" />
<txp:zem_contact_submit />
</txp:zem_contact>
Any idea on how to achieve this?Offline

Re: [ARCHIVED] Postmaster (0.4.4) -A simple newsletter manager
I’m also having problems with the <txp:bab_pm_unsubscribeLink /> tag.
The unsuscribe link on the received email is not correct.
The article with the unsubscribe info is at fi. www.mydomain.com\unsubscribe
The unsubscribe link in my email shows: www.mydomain.com\unsubscribe\&uid=
When I click on this link I receive a 404 error – page not found. I assume something has to be done with this &uid= …?
Any idea what I need to do to fix this?

Are you sending a test e-mail or a real e-mail?

keukenkikker Like “maniqui” said:
If it’s a test email or you the admin of that list
go and make a “test” list and add another email address that you got
and then send it by “yes” and not “test” and see, it sould work
I was confus with this too ;)

Re: [ARCHIVED] Postmaster (0.4.4) -A simple newsletter manager
ohh btw I found a bug!
if you create lists 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15
and then send mail to list “1” it is sending it to lists 1,10,11,12,13,14,15
and not only to “1” !
so I changed it to a,b,c,d,e,f,g… and now it’s fine
i’m sending only 40 per send
because of if i’m sending to 200+ at ones it’s giving me errors and going crazy into a loop
and yea if you got only 9 lists you can name them by using numbers but from 10+ it’s getting confused

Re: [ARCHIVED] Postmaster (0.4.4) -A simple newsletter manager
When I send a test message, the &uid= is empty.
When I send a message to my test list, the &uid= has a whole bunch of numers behind it, but when I click on it, I still have a 404-error page.
I assume that you should go to the unsubscribe page and the information should be filled out already?

Re: [ARCHIVED] Postmaster (0.4.4) -A simple newsletter manager
did you put <txp:bab_pm_unsubscribe /> into your unsubscribe’s article ?
also check if you made the unsubscribe page correctly like:
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
you have been successfully unsubscribed from our newsletter!
<txp:article allowoverride="0" form="your_unsubscribe_form" limit="1" pgonly="0" status="4" />
</body>
</html>Offline

Re: [ARCHIVED] Postmaster (0.4.4) -A simple newsletter manager
Hi Blue Dragon,
I’ve added the <txp:bab_pm_unsubscribe /> tag to the unsubscribe’s article. However it is not working yet.
I’m totally confused now. The unsubscribe page is this a Textpattern page, a Textpattern form or an article?
I’ve tried it as a form and as an article, but both are not working.

Re: [ARCHIVED] Postmaster (0.4.4) -A simple newsletter manager
1. create a page “unsubscribe” like this:
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
you have been successfully unsubscribed from our newsletter!
<txp:article allowoverride="0" form="unsubscribe" limit="1" pgonly="0" status="4" />
</body>
</html>2. create a section “unsubscribe”, and link it to the “unsubscribe” page.
3. create a form (an article form) with only <txp:body /> call it “unsubscribe”.
4. create an article with title “unsubscribe”, put <txp:bab_pm_unsubscribe /> into the body of that article.
5. now you got the next unsubscribe-link: http://www.domain.com/unsubscribe/unsubscribe
copy & paste it into the edit page of the list under “Unsubscribe Url:”.
6. go to your newsletter form and paste this:
<a href="<txp:bab_pm_unsubscribeLink type="text" />">
UNSUBSCRIBE FROM OUR NEWSLETTER</a>(if you don’t use html email just put <txp:bab_pm_unsubscribeLink type="text" /> )
and I hope it will work ;)

Re: [ARCHIVED] Postmaster (0.4.4) -A simple newsletter manager
I’ve been trying and trying, but it’s still not working.
At first the http://www.domain.com/unsubscribe/unsubscribe was not working, when I changed it to http://www.domain.com/unsubscribe the page was accessible (www.keukenkikker.nl/unsubscribe).
However, as soon as the personal code is attached (http://www.keukenkikker.nl/unsubscribe&uid=0c9831d5031a384b2f93e96dc5b57c5e), the 404 page is back again …

In the admin > Preferences > what is your “Permanent link mode” ?
the link I gived you is for /section/title
change it to what you need to point specifically on the article with the <txp:bab_pm_unsubscribe /> code
