eyedam Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 Hello! Would you consider adding a member option to include the actual PM text when receiving e-mail notification about a new PM, please? Several members have asked me of this feature. A bit more radical approach would be to not distinguish between PM or e-mail from the point of sender's view at all, but let the receiver choose whether s/he wants to receive PMs or e-mails or both, or PMs with notifications (without the message body) when being privately contacted by a member. Regards, eyedam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brandon D Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 Pretty sure IPB3 does this now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sunrisecc Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 It does so on this board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bfarber Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 As stated, IPB3 does this out of the box Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darkside_RG_merged Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 Is it optional though? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sunrisecc Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 Not for PMs. Only optional for notifications for topics/posts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darkside_RG_merged Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 If it's not possible to disable sending the pm text with the notification email then we would be very unlikely to ever want to upgrade to IPB 3.0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sunrisecc Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 Send me a PM with text. I have temporarily disabled the one switch in my control panel. PMs are now like topics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sunrisecc Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 I did a test with Andy and it appears there is no way to turn off just the contents from a PM notification. Thank you, Andy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eyedam Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 OK, thanks for the replies, it's nice to here the feature will be available in version 3.If it's not possible to disable sending the pm text with the notification email then we would be very unlikely to ever want to upgrade to IPB 3.0 You can remove the message text in the language files (email content) for the whole board at any time. At least, you could have in version 2, I don't know about 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCWT Posted April 12, 2009 Share Posted April 12, 2009 Better if it can be disabled for security reasons and a member may never login to the board if they can just read the PMs in the emails... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eyedam Posted April 12, 2009 Share Posted April 12, 2009 Better if it can be disabled for security reasons Could you, please, explain about the security reasons? Maybe I shouldn't be so eager about the idea, too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xoshe Posted April 12, 2009 Share Posted April 12, 2009 Sure they could read all PMs without going on your board, but they couldn't send any. And besides, why exactly is that a problem anyway? I'm afraid I don't really understand the issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
