Make sure and copy all the .gif files where you have your icons for your forums located already. This code uses all the 3.4 features and will try to locate icons in the correct directories.


there is a problem with this mod. when you go to send an html letter, the icons aren't displayed.

basically, i've got my forum set up with all the graphics in an images folder. this mod looks for images in strForumURL (the forum folder) so if they are elsewhere it can't find them.

i've modified the code so that it looks for the icons in strImagesURL instead (the location of the images directory).

You can download the modified files here:

hope this helps

It should use the strImagesURL. If it doesn't I released the wrong version.

I'm getting 60 instances of strForumURL in inc_code_html.asp and a couple on a couple of other pages.

New files are up I got some files mixed up with the old version Serverhackers files are right and wrong his html edit page s correct but it won't insert the proper url so when users get the email they won't see the images. All should be fixed.

Mark,
Turn off your download execlerator anything like gator.

Cheers,
Wes

works fine now. thank you!

i don't suppose there is anyway to do this: you highlight an area of text, click the BOLD button, and it inserts the open/close tags around the highlighted text, instead of overwriting it? probably not.... just a thought

Installed the Newsletter mod on Snitz 3.4.03, with Serverhacker 007 mods.
No one receives anything after sending a HTML Newsletter.
Text newsletter is working.
Any Ideas?

Thanks in Advance

Nope, I tested the html email feature and it sent out emails for me. Have you tried testing it on a clean install of snitz?

Just upgraded my forum to the latest version ... of Snitz AND the Newsletter [I had the older Newsletter version installed previously].

Well, I noted that in the Newsletter Administration, all the subscribers' e-mail addresses were showing, but the other two colums [deactivation, etc. were blank]. I figured something was out of kilter, and attempted to send an HTML Newsletter - Message received was that the database was empty.

How do I reactive these folks ... the database really isn't empty - all the E-mail addresses are still there ...

Thanks!

I'm not sure you may check the table names. I didn't change any of the table structures at all just cleaned up the code.

Here is the message I receive when running the dbs file:


Newsletter 2.0 Mod

Creating table(s)...
CREATE TABLE FORUM_MAILLIST( ID int IDENTITY (1, 1) PRIMARY KEY NOT NULL , EMAIL varchar(50) NOT NULL , ACTIVE int NULL , ACTIVE_TEMP int NULL DEFAULT 1, DATE_CREATED varchar(20) NULL )
Table already exists

Are those the required table fields?

Thanks, Wes.

Here is a crude-looking screenshot of what I see in the Newsletter Administrative area:



Note the two columns to the right are blank, though the E-mail addresses are live links [so it must be reading from the database].

I compared my database before I upgraded [3.3] to the current one [3.4] - they appear identical to me. Those two columns have -1 values throughout. Is that correct?

Anyone have ideas how I can fix this?

Thanks!

hrum.... Are you running an access database? Check the column values between the two newsletter tables?

Yes I am ... Access 2000.

Both columns, in both tables, read -1 all the way down ...
