Test distribution works correctly.

publish newsletter puts the {{member_ name}} above the defined newsletter header

I can't reproduce that. When I publish I get the member name populated correctly....  what version of IPS?

Also, is this with a publish or a test distribution?

It's on 4.17.1 with publish not test.

So you mean the "template" dropdown is set to empty? It's using the IPS wrapper?

 

Yes

I'm a bit of a noob, if there is anyone here able to create a nice clean "digest" template for me I'm willing to pay for your time. I just want the newsletter to go out HTML with a header and footer, each post should pull in the preview image and a short summary, bing bam boom....

I'd be interested as well

Where are you entering {{member_name}}? That doesn't look right...

I'm not, it's putting it in when using defaults (no custom code). It doesn't show on preview only on the actual email when published.

It will send via email, whenever you schedule it to go out.

@HeadStand the emails aren't putting in the member name. I'm getting

Hi {{member_name}},

Email isn't translating the member name, looks like double brackets?

I'm about to push a new version to the MP, so please re-test with the latest. Maybe some of the other fixes I made have corrected this. Please confirm if this is still a problem.

Yup still happening.

I updated it, but it looks the same. Maybe I have to reinstall?

Try clearing your cache first

was hoping there would be some .. i bought a similar news letter service for not even half the price and it had a nice layout, just didnt work xD

I'll be happy to share my template if I can work it out. PM me the other one you saw, it'll at least give me some ideas.

Which of those is first - gallery or articles?

Ok so it doesn't matter how many blocks I use. If they are set to use custom HTML, the first block is overriding them all.

Just got this. The email preview, is this how it really looks? 

It's the basic content, you need to now apply a custom HTML to it so that it matches your site. I'm trying to learn this now. A bit of a pain but actually pretty powerful once I can figure it out.

Another one I just discovered, my custom html for articles is overriding my custom html for gallery.

OK, some more bugs I came across. 

Date shows correctly on preview (HTML):

But on the email it's all wrong:

Also, truncate doesn't seem to have any effect:

And, trying to get the date to display with the heading doesn't work or I am doing it wrong:

I've just pushed a new version to the Marketplace. It contains fixes for both issues.

Yup, works now. With Gallery image, I would prefer to see the image rather than text. I'll have a crack at using a custom template but where do I find out what elements are contained in the $item array?

This is very expensive.. xD

 

I'm happy to pay more for a responsive developer rather than less for a non-responsive one.

Thanks for the reply. Let me know if you need me to spin up a temp test instance of my site for you to test the fix with. Otherwise happy to test for you.

I have the following values in the footer:

*|date|* 

*|weblink|*

*|unsubscribe|*

None of them are passing the values through, they appear as the shortcode on the preview and email generated. Have you got a bug/enhancement request tracker or should I keep adding to here?

Sorry, I tend to be pretty good at finding bugs lol

Feature request:

• Support for prefix filtering - I use adv tags & prefix and apply a prefix to some topics. Would love to be able to filter these as well
• Include custom template examples - I also use supergrid and would love to have a similar format on my newsletter but no idea where to start

Just bought, great timing too as I got fed up of waiting for an update to the other one I was using.

I just tried to create a test newsletter and so far have only added recent gallery image as content. When I test, I get this error:

I have this template and it's awesome. It's improved my article quality and usability tenfold. The only thing I've got left to fix is my twitter card. For some reason can't get it working.

@opentype, in the instructions you refer to:

Quote

Articles template > Supergrid FrontPage

Where is this particular template setting? In my database I only get the other 3:

Quote

Listing Template Group > Supergrid Listing
Display Template Group > Supergrid RecordDisplay
Category Template Group > Supergrid Categorylisting

I see. 

Yeah, the template is calling the default category row output at that point. I will have to do some testing to see if I can work around that without creating other problems. If it works, I will put it in the next update. It wouldn’t change much though. Basically just removing the icon and adding the Grid colors. So it’s more something for the to-do list, than for an immediate fix. 

Great thanks.

Make sure the sub-category itself is set to have the listing view inherited from the parent container. 

It is but that's not where I am having the problem, the sub cat when selected shows the view correctly. It's the listing of sub cats under a main category that shows in default view. 

Great template. Quick question, how do I get the same format to apply for Subcategories listing view? That seems to still be default which looks odd as you move through the links from the front of the database.

@fosters, this seems to be sending multiple notifications to the same people, i don't think it's checking whether it's been sent previously or not properly.

Cool, can't wait to test again.
