UseBB Community

hi,

i checked the source code, but could not find, where to hook in to add this functionality:

a check box, to subscribe to a complete forum and receive an email as soon as a new topic is posted or a reply to a topic is posted.

like this, the user would have the opportunity to get notified of new topics and replies, without needing to post+subscribe to.

please help me and point me to the right direction, where to start.

thanks in advance.
andreas

http://docs.php.net/docs.php is a perfect place to start

thank you for your extremely helpful post

I'm sorry but there is no documentation on altering the UseBB 1 source code. Most likely you will want to alter the templates first, followed by the PHP source files parsing the templates (in Your Panel). The actual mailing would be done in post_topic.php and post_reply.php.

Thank you.

I did a quick and dirty hack - as the forum is for internal use only and we have a fixed amount of users I just changed the post_topic.php to subscribe automatically all the users to the topic, when a new topic is created.

Maybe I will do some *real* thing, if I happen to have more time again...
