drivingmenuts are you there??

Any help with this would be fantastic thanks. A great little extension but perhaps just needs literally a tiny bit more work.

Best wishes,

Mark

Hey Mark, We found the problem that was causing the extension to not work properly. Follow this post in the bug forum here. I am going to go through the module and make some updates and I will post it when I am done, but it works as it is.

Hope this helps

Hi Mike,

Thanks for the reply, will check this out later today. Sorry for implying that there was something wrong with your code, it wasn’t meant to sound like that if it did. You have an absolutely fantastic little extension there which has a multitude of uses and I am ever grateful for the time you have put into it.

Will check that post out and let you know what joy I have

Thanks again.

Best wishes,

Mark

Hi Mike,

Checked out that post and as it is possibly a bug in one of the core files I think I am going to leave this until the developers confirm the bug or fix it or whatever. It wasn’t really anything mission critical but I will definitely keep an eye out on the progress of your extension as it is a great addition to ExpressionEngine.

Thanks again for the information and link. Hope you have a great weekend, well what’s left of it anyway

Best wishes,

Mark

Just to clarify - This is not my extension and I am not going to be taking over support for it. It was created by “drivingmenuts” and all credit should go to him.

I am just a user that needed it’s functionality and took the time to make it 1.6 capable. After reviewing the extension, we didn’t find any major errors that would keep it from working. We did find the bug that we submitted in the bug forum and after making the change everything worked properly.

I think it is wise to wait till Monday to see what the developers have to say. They may have written the core file that way on purpose and require the script to handle the function differently. I am curious to hear from them as well.

Hi Mike,

Shows that I need more sleep. Yep you are quite right (obviously) that this was created by someone else. Sorry about that. Had been away from the thread for a while and just read what you had posted and put the wrong name to the wrong thing so sorry for that.

Best wishes,

Mark

Brilliant!  I’m glad I can use this.  Thanks for finding that communication issue and providing a solution.

Hey Seth, I haven’t uploaded the final version of the extension yet so you will need to change the following line of code in the extension if you have error reporting turned on with your server.

Line 173: change the existing code to

This will prevent errors when you decide to enter or edit a post with the “Send notification” checkbox deselected.

I changed line 173, but still do not receive any content in the email.

You also need to change the cp.communicate.php file as outlined earlier by going to this thread: http://expressionengine.com/forums/viewthread/77289/.

This was confirmed today by Derek to be a bug and they are going to be changing it in the next release.

Mike

Doh. Made the change to cp.communicate.php and all worked perfectly.

How hard would it be to adapt this extension for comment notifications?

Just wanted to say thanks to Mr Hahn for posting the solution - I just ran into both of these issues myself and you saved me a lot of digging…
