Fierce God Posted April 1, 2019 Posted April 1, 2019 has anyone been having the auto welcome send double welcomes to status and chatbox? ever since the 4.4.2 update it has been doing this and i have been manually deleting the second welcome
HelenG Posted April 3, 2019 Posted April 3, 2019 Is it possible to have this delay the email but not the PM? I would like to send an immediate welcome PM and then follow up later with an email but it looks like the delay applies to both?
Mercury Forever Posted April 4, 2019 Posted April 4, 2019 Hello.. The problem in my platform is in the js.php function that generates a 500 ISE error. This error occurs in other IPS functions, for example when trying to upload a photo to the user's profile, both in the public profile and through ACP. I opened another thread to see the root cause of this error. Error
Dean_ Posted April 4, 2019 Posted April 4, 2019 Mike weird question, but is there any way to run this for members who have already signed up from a selected user group? Thinking that I've just started testing this, and it might encourage activity from new members?

If you've got ftp access to your ipb files, I might be a temporary work around you can try. But for included support, there would need to be some changes to do this.

I can't think of anything obvious that would cause this. I would need full board access to troubleshoot this further. Assuming this is happening across various IPB functions though, I would probably recommend trying with them first because I've never encountered this before and they would have a better idea where to first start.

If so, it should be possible to flag selected members as "not welcomed" and they would be retroactively picked up by the welcome task.

Thank you in advance for the time to respond and review the consultations and support provided. Michael.J 1

No, only recently installed the app. So looking to see if I could find a way to run it with members who have recently signed up.
xero99 Posted April 11, 2019 Posted April 11, 2019 Hello. I have no idea whats wrong with this app or with my forum. Ive just installed your app and wanted to change some options. It always appears when I enter the application settings.
Dean_ Posted April 17, 2019 Posted April 17, 2019 Is there a way to support FB/Twitter logins so it detects them and creates the posts? As of now on the current version it only does it if signed up the default way with the application form. Fierce God 1
Fierce God Posted April 19, 2019 Posted April 19, 2019 @Mike John The auto welcome is still acting weird one day it will only post one status welcome two days later it will start double posting status welcomes then it is locking all welcome topics even though i don't have a setting to do that
Fierce God Posted April 24, 2019 Posted April 24, 2019 Hello, @Mike John I understand this is a free app, but can you respond when possible plz
Fierce God Posted April 26, 2019 Posted April 26, 2019 @Mike John hello?? it;s super annoying to see the welcome status and topics being posted twice...............any help would be greatly appreciated
EmpireKicking Posted April 26, 2019 Posted April 26, 2019 With this new guests post before sign in option needs to be checked I had my welcome bot posting topics that leads to profile guest and most of the IPs at the time all used ipv6
iancassel Posted May 4, 2019 Posted May 4, 2019 @Mike John Is it possible for Auto Welcome to provide different messages for different user groups? We have three user groups (registrants, members, and subscribers) and would like to send a different message to each one. For example, is there a way to use conditional text in the editor? AlexJ 1

Hello Team We need help regarding the auto welcome message in the our IP forum. Auto Welcome message is not working in our forum when user registers to the forum. Let me explain our site's functionality in detail. We have integrated the forum(http://insiderscircle.co.uk/forum) with our wordpress site (http://insiderscircle.co.uk/) using Wordpress SSO plugin. So when user purchases membership on our wordpress website then user automatically registers to the forum. User cant simply register to the forum. They need to have account on our site first then user will get access to forum. So when user automatically registers to forum they are not getting any auto welcome message. I am attaching the wordpress sso plugin so you can check coding of the plugin. Thank you for your help
Dean_ Posted May 15, 2019 Posted May 15, 2019 I'm also facing double posting, and still facing this issue below..

Fierce God Posted May 15, 2019 Posted May 15, 2019 Same issue for me..................it seems to be double posting when signing up with social media handlers > validating via email but i wonder ..............................lol i know this is a free file............but seeing that the last reply from the dev was over a month ago, but still replies to his paid file topics............. ( @Mike John is this still supported?) ?
Fierce God Posted May 16, 2019 Posted May 16, 2019 @Mike John I have spent hrs combing thru what makes this file double post and i have official come to the conclusion that on CIC, when a member signs up, and validates via Twitter and Facebook, and sometimes Microsoft, that it trips the auto welcome and will send a double post no matter what you use to send the auto welcome Possible to get a update if this is still supported or do we need to disable it, or what lol just wondering, as yes i know this is free and paid files come first for support (but it's been a month)

And how many members do you have? What I was thinking is enable the "time delay" setting and then you can update your members database table to flag all your members as having "not received" any message yet. It doesn't do this automatically right now because I assumed most people wouldn't want old members to start getting new welcome alerts.

Not currently and it might be a few versions away. My "New Member Followup" plugin might be a work around. It supports a few different messages but works a bit differently then the auto welcome app. On 5/13/2019 at 11:46 PM, BradLazarus said: Auto Welcome message is not working in our forum when user registers to the forum.

I took a look into this more closely recently. As far as I can see, the best way to integrate the auto welcome app would be on the wordpress plugin side. So for example, they should call the "onValidate" member sync extension. On 5/15/2019 at 11:46 PM, Dean_ said: I'm also facing double posting, and still facing this issue below..

The Old Man Posted May 21, 2019 Posted May 21, 2019 Hi @Mike John, Is there any way to add blacklist or more specifically turn off autowelcome for the automatically generated IPS Support account? Many thanks!
