Hi, just downloaded and after creating HTML newsletter tried using preview and got:

Fatal error: Call to a member function topicsHtml() on a non-object in /home/########/public_html/admin#########/applications_addon/other/newsletter/sources/content/hottopics.php on line 343[/CODE]

Also noticed that if I enable the sidebar hook I then get nothing on the board index other than:

[CODE]Fatal error: Call to a member function sidebarBlock() on a non-object in /home/#######/public_html/hooks/newsletterSidebar_8b66c907e0d1ce17faa8d31bf45d08b6.php on line 46

Sounds like the skin templates weren't imported during the install for some reason.

In the ACP, go to Look & Feel -> Template Tools.
Rebuild the Master HTML for the Newsletter application
Recache your skins

Let me know if that helps.

Maybe spoke too soon, just disabled the first test newsletter and now board index showing:

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /home/########/public_html/hooks/newsletterSidebar_8b66c907e0d1ce17faa8d31bf45d08b6.php on line 36


Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/freeware/public_html/hooks/newsletterSidebar_8b66c907e0d1ce17faa8d31bf45d08b6.php:36) in /home/########/public_html/admin########/sources/classes/output/formats/html/htmlOutput.php on line 114



Does only show when there are no Newsletters available, cause I created another and the error on the board index has now gone.

Sorry to keep posting, just a possible suggestion ... I've been messing a little with the creation of the newsletters and I'm wondering if it wouldn't be too difficult to include the option to show the avatars of posters, floated left of the content in question?. Kinda had a stab at it using the templates myself but gave up in the end !

Running 3.3.0 and the version latest of [Newsletter].



The URLs that go wrong are the content links in the email.


I have created a newsletter with the 20 most recent topics from certain forums.



All of those links go to mysite.se/s?=0



So it is automatically created links that don´t work. The footer is fine.


Maybe because of the non-FURL link?



The same for the topics created for a newsletter.


See bottom of pic to see how the url shows when holding mouse over link.




One more... just /s?=0 links from forums :sad:

How does it work for guest's to subscribe to the newsletter?. There is the option of any group to subscribe when creating the newsletter, but whilst browsing my site as a guest there is no 'subscribe' button visible. Does this only appear if there is a newsletter due to be sent?.
Cheers

A new version has been uploaded to the Marketplace. Changes include:

  • When no newsletters were enabled, the board index showed a PHP (non-fatal) error. Fixed.
  • Newsletters were distributed with broken links (s=0). Fixed.

Please let me know if the broken links issue persists. I am fairly certain I fixed it, but then again, I thought I had fixed it before. Feel free to PM me directly, as I seem to not be getting notifications for this topic (despite the fact that I am following it).

At this time, the Newsletter does not support distribution to non-members. I may add this in a future version, but it will require some significant re-work of the core logic... so no timetable yet.

I'll add this to my enhancement list. My main concern right now is to get these distribution issues ironed out.

It's quite obvious something is very wrong with this mod, and the lack of acknowledgement from the developer is seriously disheartening - I am now noticing there are links such as "You can unsubscribe at any time here: http://url/s=0" in topic notifications which shouldn't have anything to do with the newsletter subscription. The same links are still in the newsletters being sent out which my users are now seriously annoyed about and the newsletter subscription options have vanished outright from the board index after the last upgrade.

Sorry, but I'm not a beta tester, I'm a customer and as such I'm marking this mod as broken and will be requesting a full refund.

For the love of god, what is happening with IPBoard these days ... http://community.invisionpower.com/tracker/issue-37199-unsubscribe-link-broken-in-emails/

Headstand, it looks as though I need to apologise for this as it would appear the issue could actually be with IPBoard and not your mod - I just wish you would post back a little more often though so we don't feel as though we're left high and dry sometimes.

I'm sorry as well... it's been an insane week. Should be a little bit better going forward. I actually got to my desk early today just so I could look at this issue - and now I see that I may not have to.

Now let's just get the "reported as broken" detail taken care of.

Your other issue - regarding the sidebar - will be fixed today.

Oh, and one more thing, in the future, if you see that I don't respond, please please PLEASE send me a PM or even a direct email (support@headstandconsulting.com).

I would definitely withdraw my report that it was broken Michael - basically the same issue regarding the URL's is happening on IPBoard with or without the Newsletter mod installed/enabled - unfortunately no-one realised this until I had a poke around the tracker :)

Very Interested in this / is there anyone who can link me to some live examples of the output, can the front page be edited to resemble say a cover of a mag or a guide to whats in the newsletter and has anyone ever set the letter to a pdf and listed up on the free download sites as a way of gaining more traffic ?

cheers for any help
Pete
