The only down side to this hack is that your custom links either have to be before or after the dynamic links in the menu.

You are the MAN! ...or the Cat! ...or the Wolf! ...oh, you know what I mean!

Seriously, thank you for everything you're doing, and good luck in your new role.

I set up the cron job using cPanel's built-in cron job scheduler. Beyond that I'm not much of a cron/linux expert. More of a designer, but I agree that a cron job scheduler would be an good addition to XOOPS, and would be willing to check into it when I get a chance.

Thanks JackJ!

Does it allow the user to have only one page? That is where I'm running into trouble.

Is it possible to select a sub-group of users as email recipients, then later select the next sub-group, send, and repeat the process until everyone has been a recipient?

To overcome the limitation of my mail server (250 emails per hour per account to discourage spamming) for a custom PHP web site I designed an email Queue that took a list of receipients and divided it into smaller groups. Then I created a Cron to check the queue and send out the next email to its group every hour.

Perhaps a future XOOPS module or core addition could do something similar to overcome such limitations, whether they be due to mail server limits or memory limits...

Is this a limitation of XOOPS?

I know that my host's mail server is set to restrict the number of emails that can be sent per account per hour. Could this be the problem for you?

I've been afraid to ask that question for fear of sounding pushy under the circumstances, but an idea of where we stand on the WF-Section release would be very helpful.

I'm in limbo on a new client site in which I plan to use it.

Ooo... Too bad!

I really need one and I've only been PHP coding for a few months, but maybe I'll just have to make one myself.

Thanks!

Ray,

My understanding is that you cannot add custom menu items to the Main Menu. See my post in the Feature Request forum.

You can use MultiMenu or iMenu to create custom menus, though neither allows for sub-or-child menus.

Due to these limitations, I am planning to create a set of custom blocks with my own combination of html and dhtml to create a navigational menu with custom menu items, where each variation of the block can be displayed in different areas of the site

Does anyone know of a module that has been written to allow registered users to create personal web pages within XOOPS?

If not is there a module that could be easily modified to do this?
