I installed the one you linked to in this topic after someone said the initial link was dead. Those 3 variables just don't seem related to anything else in the application.

It works fine in SQL Server if you change the WHERE Active=Yes to WHERE Active=1. That's all I had to do to make it work.

I can't wait to see the new version.

Hey Classic

If you go back to the first page of this Topic at the bottom of the page I added some code to show how many people have subscribed to the NewsLetter.

Maybe add this in if you are going to do an updated MOD

I found another issue and have a resolution. I was testing thiis out and saw that my apostrophes(') were converted to question marks(?).

To fix this open nlEmail_List.asp and find:

strSubject = Request.Form("txtSubject")
strBody = Request.Form("txtBody")

Immediately below that add

strBody = Replace(strBody, "'","& #39;")


So now it looks like:

strSubject = Request.Form("txtSubject")
strBody = Request.Form("txtBody")
strBody = Replace(strBody, "'","& #39;")


This method if not exact code should take care of nlEmail_List_html.asp too.

Hi.

I changed the code to show how many people have subscribed, and how many members there are, but one thing...

I have 27 members, and 27 people have subscribed, but the 27 people subscribed aren't all members, so is there any way of saying...

27 people have subscribed, of which, 22 are members, and 5 are guests

???

Cheers!

Oli

mortioli,

I was trying to do the same thing as you and got lost in it. I think the only way you can do this is to compare the email addresses of the people who have subscribed to the Newletter, with the email addresses in the FORUM_MEMBERS table.

Even this would not be 100% as some forum members may use different email adds for each.

I was going to start working on this but have been overwhelemed with work. If I do get something going I will post it here.

Be careful when you try to send this. I DTS'd a few hundred email addresses in and tried to send a newsletter but time after time it timed out after only a few dozen were sent and that was just the text newsletter.

@tomic,

I did have the code changed on mine to BCC everyone but only for ASPEMAIL. The problem with it now is it trys to send a NewsLetter to each person one at a time, using BCC would not do this so there should be no time outs.

Thanks for the tip! I will give that a shot and see what I can do with it.

what I was wondering, i don't want to have people sign up for the news letter, i just want to send it to everyone under admin_emaillist.asp is that possible? I'm no good at coding and can't figure it out.

Could you please let me know where the code can be found. freeaspcode.net seems to have gone through a major change in April and the original link at the start of this topic doesn't lead to anything related to Snitz. This newsletter mod sounds like just what I need.

Thanks

I don't know if everyone using ASPMail would have this happen, but after I tried the BCC method this worked better than before but still timed out after about 400 were sent

Looks like I need a newletter service since we expect to be sending out about 5,000 at a time.

I didn't know about the Yahoo Briefcase thing. That's pretty cool. I know there were other similiar "free" services offered by other companies, but some of those are now gone.

Anyways, I set one up and was ready to make a folder public when I noticed this:

Public (everyone can access this folder.)
Note: The free service on Yahoo! Briefcase does not allow public sharing of files/full-size images.



In order to share items, you have to know the yahoo usernames of people you want to share the files with. Oh well, still a good service to use with friends.

im interested in this MOD, but instead of people having to signup for it, is there a way make it where any member is already there, so anyone who signs up I can send out mailings?

thanks
