I was wondering if there is a modified code for viewing the Reply message in the subscription notification e-mail so that one doesn't actually have to log on to the site to view the reply?
This was actually the case in a mod to a previous version of Snitz before subscription was included as default.
Hoping for help...

There has been much talk of making one, but I have never seen a product.
Look around, you will find many threads on the subject.

OK.. I'm a newbie to the SNITZ forum, but I took a little time to figure out how to add the posting body, to the subscription e-mail notice. Here is the mod as I made them:
## To add the posting body to the subscription list, make the following edits.
In the file: post_info.asp
Locate the calls to the function: ProcessSubscriptions There are two of them. They should look like:
ProcessSubscriptions rs("Member_ID"), Cat_ID, Forum_ID, Topic_ID
Change both of them to be:
ProcessSubscriptions rs("Member_ID"), Cat_ID, Forum_ID, Topic_ID, CleanCode(txtMessage)
In the file: inc_subscription.asp
Locate the line that looks like: This is around line 166
sub ProcessSubscriptions (MemberId, CatID, ForumId, TopicId)
Change it to:
sub ProcessSubscriptions (MemberId, CatID, ForumId, TopicId, txtMessage)
In the same file, a little further below, we need to add the text to the body of the e-mail. The original lines are:
strMessage = strMessage & "Regarding the subject - " & TopicName & "." & vbNewline & vbNewline
strMessage = strMessage & "You can view the posting at " & strForumURL & "link.asp?TOPIC_ID=" & TopicId & vbNewline
The updated lines of code are:
strMessage = strMessage & vbNewLine & vbNewLine & "Subject: " & TopicName & vbNewline & vbNewline & txtMessage & vbNewLine & vbNewLine
strMessage = strMessage & "You can view the full posting at " & strForumURL & "link.asp?TOPIC_ID=" & TopicId & vbNewline
## End of Mods

Before I read your post Snowblind, I did find a modification in the archived posts which works fine and only adds two extra lines in inc_subsciption.asp.
See topic here: http://forum.snitz.com/forum/topic.asp?ARCHIVE=true&TOPIC_ID=16549
You may have to add one or two extra line breaks (& vbNewline) in order for it to look good in the e-mail but it works fine.
But thanks anyway - sorry I was late getting back on that.

Tec,
That's what I love about these forums. There is always a better way. Thanks for pointing it out. I'm all for minimizing the amount of work in a mod.

Is there a MOD for Snitz that automatically e-mail's when someone's replied to the topic WITHOUT having to subscribe [Automatically]
Thanks,

We implemented something like this on our forum, where it included the message content as part of the Subscription post.
We then found out that if you allowed "board wide subscriptions", emails went out that included content from HIDDEN forums, including ones that were used to contain business sensitive information.
Just a word of warning to test this before you implement it.
Regards,
Stuart

Thanks for the info, But what I'm looking for is a MOD that when you post a topic it automatically will e-mail you and all the ohters that have replied when a user replys to the post.
Do you know what I mean? [without having to subscribe to a forum]
Cheers

That feature was eliminated from the previous version of Snitz Forum last year and replaced with Subscriptions. I like the idea of subscriptions but I think it's intuitive to have "email when someone replies to this post".
Perhaps someone will know how to turn that feature back on.

I checked this out and found some problems: your message:
quote:
actually, I found a MUCH easier solution:
the message body can still be retrieved at this point by a simple request.form("message")
so now, around line 300 of inc_subscription.asp, after
strMessage = strMessage & fLangN(strLangInc_Subscription00160, TopicName) & "." & vbNewline & vbNewline
I added
strMessage = strMessage & "Message:" & request.form("Message") & "."
and it works!
The code in inc_Subscriptions after line 300 does not exist anywhere in the document so I'm hesitant to add any code in case there are problems.

My ccHTMLMail mod does this, but only if the mail is sent in html format. I could add the code to the normal format email if you want me to though, let me know if you require it and I will take a look at putting it into the standard Snitz code for non-html mail.

John,
I wouldn't mind it for my forum. I have the ccHTMLMail installed, but would like it to email the content for non-html as well.
