This is a nice modification, thanks. However, you can't really add anything above it, I guess that's the reason its a header widget..:) Is there a way to apply this to a lower block position? Best way to make this 2 column?

I just updated to 4.2.2 and it looks great when using the default template. However, when using my custom template, because it uses the same IPS classes, I am having layout issues between box spacing, borders, profile image alignment, etc. Is it possible to add a custom css just for this or create a custom css file and have it reference that? EDIT, I just saw where there is a box theme setting to use classes or not. I am creating a pages css file and including that to overwrite some of my layout issues with my custom theme.

I had upgraded my site to 4.2.2 from 4.1.9 and after I updated the plugin version, the menu item disappeared. It still showed in the menu manager though. I also notice that the grid layout is showing 6 in a row on larger screens vs it was 4 before. Is there some CSS I can apply to have it max 4 per row? On my larger screen it squeezes the boxes to show 6 now after update.

Somehow I got it to show and I think it was by re saving the list.

Has anyone had an issue with 4.2.2 and not getting it to show up in the main menu? I just updated to 4.2 and updated the plugin and I see it in the menu manager but it does not show.

Is this updated to work with 4.2.2?

ok will do after I update. Just trying to find out what plugins I have before i update to 4.2 that are not updated.

Is this plugin updated to work with 4.2.1+?

Is this plugin updated to work with 4.2.1+?

@stoo2000 Any word on Amazon SES?

@fosters helped me out and it was a permissions setting on my end. Top notch support! Thanks.

I installed on v4.1.19.4 and its enabled in the application menu but I don't see it anywhere in admin panel, am I missing something? Where are the config settings?

I would be interested in a jobs board app but really what I would be looking for is a way to also show jobs from indeed using their API to supplement listings.

I am using sparkpost + IPS but am not getting multiple sends.

I'll second this. I just noticed something where pages (articles) that are configured to also post in the forum and have topic replies as comments and vice versa, just show 0 comments when you look at the article page. Would be good to disallow to hide if possible for pages app.

Thanks for the heads up. Mine is about to send by schedule. What was your setting on, weekly, biweekly, monthly? Did the newsletter tasks run to update after it sent the first time?

Did it send fine before you updated IPS?

Any updates on Amazon SES/SNS?

Ok for whatever reason I decided to try and re-upload the application even though in my admin panel it stated I am running 1.0.3. After uploading the .tar over the existing application, next distribution time seems to be working better where its not the same day and it's adjusting my time by 4 hours (GMT vs EST) after I make a time setting adjustment. I think its now just a matter of understanding how the settings calculate time. There is a tricky relationship between start date, distribution cycle and what days you have checked off. For instance, for me...every 2 weeks means it goes out once every two weeks, or weekly its once every week. If I want it on Mondays and Fridays every week, I check off daily and and check off Mondays and Fridays. Now what's the difference between that and weekly and then having checked off every Monday and Friday? It's confusing, unless I'm missing something.I think I even mentioned this earlier, must be going crazy.. Now every two weeks can be confusing as well if you check off individual days because to me every two weeks equals 14 days but you could have a next distribution date in 8 days if you start the newsletter on a Saturday and check off Sunday as an option. I guess you need this if you want to send out on 2 days during the week every 2 weeks. The time settings are a bit frustrating but once you get it straight, the app does its job well. Seem to have it where the next schedule distribution is correct. I would check it after you run a newsletter for the first time and actually test it with just a small group and then add the rest to be safe...I had it send to 10k members 12 times and they all got mad, so I stopped for a while and have been testing and messing around with it.

Ok, 5 pm and it distributed again. This is after I changed the setting to weekly to test after the 4 pm send. Next scheduled distribution still says 1pm which has to be the reason. I'm guessing. Why is it not updating? I ran the two daily tasks (PruneDistributionHistory and NewsletterReminders) manually to see if the next scheduled distribution would change but it hasn't. So I guess my earlier questions have been answered. I looked in the database under ipb_newsletters_newsletters and the next run is the same as start date which is why it stays in a loop and runs every our on the hour with the task. So the question is, what is or isn't updating the next_run?

@HeadStand Before sending, does the script check the last distribution time or next? Could it be that the newsletter publish task runs every hour and sends the distribution after checking the next distribution time but distribution history gets pruned daily as do the reminders. So, your next distribution time doesn't change hourly like the publishing task. Could that be an issue? As for running with topics, could be that it looks like it, if you have tasks set to Run Automatically with Traffic (Default) instead of a cron.

Ok, since then at 1 pm, I have had it distributed again at 2 pm, 3 pm, and now 4 pm hourly. (No good) Thankfully I'm testing and only sending to admin. The setting is on Daily and Saturday is checked off. The last distribution is now 4 pm. So it sent at 1 pm, 2 pm, 3 pm, and now 4 pm and is NOT following the last distribution time to know it already sent. I believe this should be set to weekly and as I mentioned earlier if you have daily, that is every day...no? If that's the case, then why under daily are there days to check off? I just switched to weekly and am curious if it will send out at 5 pm...will update the topic after.

I just tested and had 1 pm set for today's date in settings. It just sent at 1:02 pm EST (my server is on EST). So, it seems that the settings time is following my server time (EST) on this one and the GMT distribution time was irrelevant. In settings: Distribution times are calculated according to GMT. Time now is 04/01/2017 05:02 PM (4 hours ahead of EST). Technically if that's the case, my 1 pm in settings should have sent 4 hours ago if it was following GMT but it sent according to EST from what I can tell. This is why its a bit confusing I actually prefer it like this where it follows my time.

Thanks, I got it to send a pre-distribution now. Might have been a cron issue or time/date. I'm still confused on the time setting in the newsletter setting vs my actual and server time. I get that the Distribution times are calculated according to GMT. For instance, I have 6 pm in my settings for the newsletter but it tells me the next distribution time is 7 pm. Is that 7 pm per GMT or 7 pm per my server time? My server is EST and its 4 hours behind GMT. Just would be good if in settings everything just followed server time or there was a setting to + or - GMT time.

If you need anyone else to test Amazon SES, let me know.
