For Snitz Version 3.1 : Not yet updated for version 3.3
-------------------------------------------------------
This mod is an enhancement to the Snitz email notification of replies to a post. The email recipient is provided a link DIRECTLY to the reply that triggered the notification instead of just the 1st message of what could be a multi-page thread.
You can download this mod from http://www.sagecomputerservices.com/downloads/reply_notification.asp

As a manner of "demo", here are a couple screen shots of this mod in action:
This is the email message the user receives when someone responds to their post. Note that the link in the email also contains the ReplyID of the posting that triggered the email notification. The mod will use this to place the user at the specific reply when clicked:
When the user clicks on the link in the email, they are taken directly to the post that triggered the notification email. In this case, see how it takes you directly to the message even though the message is on page 12 of a 13 page topic thread.

Excellent MOD !
I recently installed SuperSearch 2.3 MOD which work great ! But now I find this has somehow 'Broken' the reply notification MOD. The link in the reply message works but doesn't bring you at the right spot. I find it will bring me down a few posts but not down to the psot I replied to (which is several posts down).
Here's an example of the link in my email message:
You can view the reply at http://syltek.dingojunction.com/forum/link.asp?TOPIC_ID=24&ReplyLoc=62
Is this my mistake or have others seem this behaviour too !

I also noticed that the reply notification email only works for the 'Admin' account. If I reply to a post from another account, the email message only contains a link to the topic.

A new version of the Reply Email Notification Mod is now available. The new
version is 1.1 and can be downloaded from
http://www.sagecomputerservices.com/downloads/reply_notification.asp
This is an update to fix email notifications from an original topic posting.
This release also updates the manner in which the named anchor is set so that
each reply is assured of getting a unique named anchor. The problem was that named
anchors were being copies into messages that were quoted from previous messages
so that the named anchor was duplicated in the replies.
The files changed from 1.0 to 1.1 are topic.asp and link.asp. Look for the
'REPLY NOTIFICATION MOD 1.1 BEGIN' and 'REPLY NOTIFICATION MOD 1.1 END' statements
to locate the new code.

Line 607 needs to be commented out:
'DoReplyEmail Request.Form("TOPIC_ID"), rs("MEMBER_ID"), Request.Form("UserName")
Then be sure the new call on 665 looks like this:
DoReplyEmail Request.Form("TOPIC_ID"), rs("MEMBER_ID"), Request.Form("UserName"), sReplyID
Also, be sure to update line 1285 so that the new sub declaration looks like:
sub DoReplyEmail(TopicNum, PostedBy, PostedByName, sReplyID)
Is all that in place?

How is this mod supposed to work?
I've installed the mod but the replies go to the top post, not the reply post. In fact, it does the same thing as it used to.
Help please.

Just for the benefit of others, I looked at your files and you were missing some code identified by the "REPLY NOTIFICATION MOD BEGIN" that was contained within a larger "SUPERSEARCH" mod also contained in topic.asp.

I think your mod doesn't work with the new Snitz Forums 2000 v3.3 ...
Do you know why ?
Here an exemple in the topic.asp file:
_______________________________________
ADODB.Recordset erreur '800a0bb9'
The application is using arguments that are of the wrong type, are out of acceptable range, or are in conflict with one another.
/forum/inc_functions.asp, ligne 1788
_______________________________________
Thank you very much.

I'm sure it's because of the updated code in version 3.3. I have just become aware of the new version release so it will be a bit before I can update the code. I'll post a message here when the update is ready.
Meanwhile, since this mod actually represents a fix (current Snitz email notification just drops the user at the beginning of what could be a multi-page topic with hundreds of messages/replies) to the Snitz email notification system, perhaps the Snitz developers might be interested in simply incorporating this fix (or some similar manner thereof) into the next release.

Thank you  !
I hope the script for the 3.3 version will be out soon, because I really need it for my forum, it's an important script I think !
