NoGi

Can you restrict who sees it?

The variable doesn't get passed until it's published. They will all look like that in preview mode. You can always do a test distribution to yourself to confirm.

This is literally the only settings I changed for the content parts:

You also need to put some static content into the header and footer sections like your logo etc..

Oh, don't forget to clear your cache and make sure you are running the latest version.

@NoGi still willing to share the template you have? It looks really really bland as default and I hate to think I spent $50 for something I won't use. Some pre-populated styling would have been a really nice plus.

PM me your email and I'll forward you what mine looks like. I've just used the default stuff and have not customised anything. 

I've got an issue with the new gallery template where the watermark I use seems to cover the whole image. Is there anyway around this?

Separate default HTML template for images

How is this enabled/used?

I've still got the old issue of when this plugin is enabled, any setting changes I do to my pages database don't actually save. If I disable just this one, setting changes save fine.

Upgrade went without a hitch, great work @opentype

Would be good to also have a setting to disable the teaser text.

I will require a few days to learn how this app (and the others) works. In the meantime, please list the issues with it so I can take a look.

Thank you, all we needed to know is where this had been abandoned or not and it sounds like Raw has his priorities right and in the short term found someone to carry the baton so to speak. Good to see development continues and hope he sorts things out and returns soon.

It just seems to be more frequent on this platform or maybe that's just what I am perceiving.

It doesn't bother me if a developer stops supporting their app, I just get put offside when they do this with zero communication to their paying customer base.

But here's the gotcha, Raw was like that in the beginning and actively supporting it and then gone. I have the same issue with a different app by a different author who was also active and now gone. Something is broken if good developers come, build and then not motivated to stay.

Is there a migration path from iAwards to Trophies and Medals?

I'm not sure if they are even still working on this anymore??

A shame really as we seem to be seeing this over and over with what starts of as a great IPS4 app.

From the other post:

It would be good to be able to apply groups filtering to it if we wanted some groups to be excluded from getting the truncated messages like moderators/admins for example.

Yes and yes.

Does it pull content based on user permissions? So, assume we select all forums but a couple are restricted. Will it omit those for members with no access?

As a test, can you switch the newsletter to use SMTP and see if it works? You should be able to do this in the newsletter settings. 

Yup worked correctly this time. Looks like the SparkPost is the culprit.

Are you by any chance using SparkPost?

Yes I am.

@-RAW- @Morrigan is this app still being maintained?

@HeadStand, sorry if I misunderstood the situation here, but I had a similar issue on Invite System. Not sure if is happening the same here, but the Hi {{member_name}} is automatically added in emails. On my app it was showing twice.

That's it and what's happening with me. 

Anyway, I'll let her enjoy her break in peace and will wait till next week when she is back on deck to look at this. Other than that, awesome app @HeadStand

I don't think that would matter. I'm not working this weekend but let me give it another shot next week. 

I only just saw this after doing a clean install lol. Anyway problem is still there.

Fresh install, created a new newsletter, left template blank.

Preview HTML -> works as expected

Test Distribution -> works as expected

Publish Newsletter -> Hi {{member_name}}, is the first line of the email

Yes. Haven't given up yet, I just don't have a fix yet.

Ok, so am I the only one experiencing this? I could try a full uninstall and reinstall tomorrow if that's the case?

19 minutes ago, HeadStand said:

I'm still not able to reproduce it....

Just to confirm, you did a publish correct? As it doesn't show on preview or test distribution. Only shows when published.

@HeadStand any ideas on the {{member_ name}} issue? I've created a brand new newsletter and on publish does the same.

I don't know how else to explain this other than saying trust me I don't have a php error. The widget was removed from my page some how and along with it the stuff that was in the widget. Even though the widget is working fine. I could add it back and it would work but my content is gone. See screen shot.

Post the link to the new topic you create and we'll try to help you there, don't want to take this support thread way off topic

All my content was in the php widget and now it's gone.

This is where you are perhaps getting a little confused as to where the fault is. Content doesn't reside in the widget, it resides in the database. The widget simply pulls the content to display as required. As I mentioned above, a blank page is probably a php error for which you need to look at the php log to see what is causing it. Does this occur on your test site before you rolled it out to your live site? If it didn't what's different between your test site and live site?

I understand but something when following the directions (correctly or not) of using this plugin is when all my pages were deleted. I thought at the least it might be something you would like to think over so it won't happen to others.

 

It's a template, it doesn't touch the content so it's not possible to delete your pages by installing the template. It's like saying that installing a theme deleted all the forum posts.

like blank

Blank page with no IPS branding is typical of a php error. You would need to check the php logs to see what's going on.
