For those having the Style problem with the PostMaster tabs, I solved it editing the plug in,

I entered this code, instead of the one that is in the plugin now.
fixed the tabs problem.

//assign all down state
	$td_subscribers = $td_lists = $td_importexport = $td_formsend = '<td class="tabdown">';

	// process $step to set active tab
	switch($step)
	{
		case 'subscribers':
			$td_subscribers = '<td class="tabup">';
			break;

		case 'lists':
			$td_lists = '<td class="tabup">';
			break;

		case 'importexport':
			$td_importexport = '<td class="tabup">';
			break;

		case 'formsend':
			$td_formsend = '<td class="tabup">';
			break;

		case 'preferences':
			$td_formsend = '<td class="tabup">';
			break;
	}

	$pm_nav = <<<pm_nav

<table id="pagetop" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="padding-bottom:10px;margin-top:-20px;">
	<tr id="nav-secondary"><td align="center" class="tabs" colspan="2">
		<td>
			<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" align="center" colspan="2" style="padding-bottom:10px;" >
				<tr>
				$td_subscribers<div class="push_down"><a href="?event=postmaster&step=subscribers"  class="plain">Subscribers</a></div></td>
				$td_lists<div class="push_down"><a href="?event=postmaster&step=lists"  class="plain">Lists</a></div></td>
				$td_importexport<div class="push_down"><a href="?event=postmaster&step=importexport"  class="plain">Import/Export</a></div></td>
				$td_formsend<div class="push_down"><a href="?event=postmaster&step=formsend"  class="plain">Direct Send</a></div></td>
				$td_formsend<div class="push_down"><a href="?event=postmaster&step=prefs"  class="plain">Preferences</a></div></td>
				</tr>
			</table>
		</td>
	</tr>
</table>

I’m getting the following “notices” on the send page during a bulk email:-

Notice: Undefined variable: uPosted in /home/thebombs/public_html/loves-angel/textpattern/publish.php on line 961

Notice: Undefined variable: uExpires in /home/thebombs/public_html/loves-angel/textpattern/publish.php on line 962

Notice: Undefined variable: uLastMod in /home/thebombs/public_html/loves-angel/textpattern/publish.php on line 963

It has been mentioned before by someone else but there was no reply. I should say that everything is working as expected but it just doesn’t look too good, especially on a customer’s site. Any ideas?

can’t help you, had no problem with this. Had other problems instead

First, I love this plugin. My only gripe is that it only displays the first name in the from field. For example, if I were to send myself an email it would say “chad” in the header. Is there a way to manually override this feature and/or add it?

Thanks!

What´s the max number of emails this plugin can handle?
I´m on a delicated situation with one costumer who got 1.615 subscribers and when he sends a newsletter only one part of the list receives it. Say, people with the name begining with “A” to “I” receive it and the rest (from “I” to “Z”) doesn´t. Is this a plugin issue or a hosting / sending mail issue? How can i determine that?

I´ve tried to split the list onto 3 but that didn´t worked either…

Thx in advance

The plugin does not restrict this. My guess would be either the host is blocking the emails after a certain point, or the page refresh that sends emails in batches stops for some unknown reason.

gavnosis · 2010-03-17 17:44:37

Maybe I’ve missed something really, really obvious but can mem_postmaster (used in conjunction with zem_contact_reborn) be used to send a simple automated message upon registration to the user’s email?

zem_contact_reborn mails me when someone wants to get in touch, and I can direct users to a page with a message (so far, so good)… but I can I send users a message by email as they register? (i.e. not when I’m sending a newsletter).

Or is this a job for something else? (Maybe mem_self_register or something?)

Any help gratefully appreciated…

johnstephens · 2010-03-17 17:58:15

I think this is something you can do with zcr.

copysender="boolean"

gavnosis · 2010-03-17 18:17:37

Thanks John,

That does exactly what I was after!

(It would be nice to send a message only to the sender, but I guess that’s being greedy…)

I get these warnings:

What’s wrong?

MySQL 4 does not support something in the query the plugin uses. MySQL 5 (and 5.1) have been available for a while.

I’m also getting these errors, plus this error when I first opening the “postmaster” tab after installation:

Warning: Unknown column 'list_id' in 'field list' insert into bab_pm_list_prefs set list_id=1, subscriber_id=1 in /textpattern/lib/txplib_db.php on line 85

on:
Textpattern version: 4.2.0 (r3275)
PHP version: 5.2.6

(Plus this: The following PHP functions (which may be necessary to run Textpattern) are disabled on your server: phpinfo, escapeshellarg, escapeshellcmd, proc_close, proc_get_status, proc_nice, proc_terminate, posix_getpwuid, symlink, readlink, linkinfo)

How I can completely remove “Postmaster” from my database?
what are all the tables names that needs to be removed please?
(I want to completely reinstall it, I was using Ben’s plugin before)

colak · 2010-04-23 18:40:47

is there a way by which I can have people subscribe to 2 lists?

That is the “default” one for all subscribers (preferably happening automatically)
and another one from a pull-down menu.

bab_pm_list_prefs
bab_pm_subscribers
bab_pm_subscribers_list

@manfre – I too am getting the following error which is similar to THE BLUE DRAGON’s and happen upon first visit to the Postmaster Tab (which installs the tables successfully btw):

Warning: Unknown column 'list_id' in 'field list' insert into bab_pm_list_prefs set list_id=1, subscriber_id=1 textpattern/lib/txplib_misc.php(484) : eval()'d code:537 safe_insert() in /textpattern/lib/txplib_db.php on line 85

I’m then getting:

Notice: Undefined index: bab_pm-subscribers_per_page in /textpattern/lib/txplib_misc.php(484) : eval()'d code on line 386

…when re-visiting the Postmaster Tab.

An then interestingly enough, after deleting the Test User that comes pre-loaded that second error no longer shows up. After this I added a subscriber using the form and once that user is in that previous error does not show up as it did when attempting to list the Test User. So, it seems to me that Test User insert was the only problem and that I can use the plugin as intended without worrying about those two errors. Could be wrong but am going to go ahead using it until I hear otherwise. Seems safe.
