Gang,

This is a 3-part question. (Thanks in advance to everyone here - you guys are great!)

First question, I need to edit my initial registration email message that gets sent out. How is this done?

Second / Third question, Currently I'm running threads for a certification support forum. My "subscribe" options are not working. I need someone to update and get this working for me. Next, I'd like to add the ability (I think this can easily be done with my "Subscribe" options) for my subscibers to receive emails every time (or in digest mode) a post is made on our forum. Also, Is there a way to add a "List-Serv Subscription" link that would allow a user to send an email somewhere - and act like a realy "list-serv" and allow registration? If so, I'd like for every email that's sent within the list-serv to also be copied to a forum (if it's not originated on our forum board). Last option, how can I push my threads / forums / topics to a newsgroup or news server? I'd also like to have a "subscription" be mandatory.

If anyone has any comments, suggestions or knows how to do this, please email me direct at certificationtalk@ipexpert.net

Thanks!!!! - Wayne [Confused]

OK - part 1. I've written some instructions in My Site Help Library forum at threadsdev for modifing the "Welcome" emails and PMs.

You can find it here, but you have to login/register to see it.

Part 2 - for subscriptions to go out, you need to properly set up the cron job for subscriptions.php. There's also a bug fix or two posted in the bugs forum for subscriptions.php for it to work right if you are using 6.2.

For help setting up cron jobs see this page.

Infopop may have some advanced support options (for a fee) that they can help you get this going.

Now for help customizing your scripts to function differently, have a look around www.threadsdev.com.
There are developers there, including myself, for hire, or that can help you work on code modifications.

Hope that helps. [Smile]

Good question. I think NT users have had to do something slightly different. But I do know everyone is usually able to get subscriptions working.
