Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications Matt November 11, 2024Nov 11
Posted August 26, 20168 yr Hello, i used Bulk Mail without problems on the 4.1.10 or so but IPS changed it in the last few versions so now its almost unusable.. Sending bulk mail to around 5k users is a total pain. The Sending page always timeouts and when i return to the bulk mail list i see 0 sent always. Why they broke this cool feature into something so unusable now it is.. beyond my understanding..
August 28, 20168 yr Have you submitted a ticket on this?? Checked with any of the recipients and seen if they indeed get the message? Checked your mail logs to see if it sends? Last time there was a issue iirc it was just a counting issue. Where it would say it sent to 2k users.
August 31, 20168 yr Try putting the following line in your "constants.php" file: define( 'BULK_MAILS_PER_CYCLE', 20 ); You can decrease the value "20", in case it is not working yet. In case it works, you can try to increase the value. (The default value is 500, I believe. I set it to "1", as IPS was sending emails too fast, and even after setting it to "1", I had to send bulk mails in multiple batches, based on registration date. Otherwise I would hit the limit rate for receiving emails at certain ISPs.)
