A couple of questions...

Can i tell XOOPS to send me an email whenever i receive a pm?

Can i tell the CBB module to send an email when someone reports a post instead of just filing it in a place i never look?

Thanks in advance to anyone who can help!

thanks for your response, but while i do know about notifications, and the concept behind it all, i can't find the option to enable notifications for both of the above events.

Could i be really annoying and ask you to let me know exactly where those settings are?

Thanks again, and apologies if this is really simple!

ok sorry about the wait, got pretty crazy at the office today...

Now you are at a fork in the road, essentially you will need to pick one or the other PM or Email notifications by default.

Check THIS post for details.

Hope it helps.

thank you, but i think u may have misunderstood my problem.

I am aware of the setting you describe, and for me it is set to "email". That is not the issue here though.

First of all, as a user, i would like to be sent a notification email whenever anyone sends me a pm either from the link on my profile or by replying to a pm i have sent to them. That way, i could find out that i've been sent a pm, and visit the site to read the message.

Secondly, as a site Webmaster and forum moderator, i would like to be sent an email each time someone reports a post. Currently, when a post is reported, the report simply gets added to a list of pending reports, but i am never notified of these reports and they can therefore go quite some time before being processed.

If could let me know if the above is possible, and if so, how it can be done, that'd be great.

Cheers!

I am afraid I am at a loss then.

What you are looking for is more of a hack than a feature. You would need to manipulate the mailers in both the system module and the cbb module.


if $added_id[] = isAdmin
( in_array("mail", $_POST['mail_send_to']) ) {
$xoopsMailer->useMail();


Not sure of exactly how to do it. Obviously as you can see by that I am no coder.

As for CBB, you can set your notification to be notified of any new posts, and you can set your notifications to be emailed to you.

Hope that helps somewhat...
