NMS Module Problems?

[mderbyshire]

Hi,

Firstly, I just want to say that i'm running version 1.0 of CMSMS, and I have just installed the latest version of the NMS module, which was released yesterday (11/9/2006).

I seem to be having a couple of problems though - namely with the unscubscribe/update/confirm links that are sent out in mailing list messages. First of all, none of these 3 links are being displayed in any of the emails (even though the tags to make them do so are in the message, when the job is processed), or rather, they are, but they simply do not show up when you read the email -- one must actually view the source to see the links, otherwise they just appear invisible.

Secondly, none of the links seem to work correctly anyway. They seem to take you to the CMSMS admin login page. Now, given that subscribers to my mailing list would not have access to the admin login page, they wouldn't be able to login there anyway. Am I right in thinking that these should actually take the user somewhere else, or at least allow them some form limited access to the admin panel, so they can confirm/update/remove their email addresses?

Many thanks.

I've run into this too. The emails don't seem to have links.

I have another stupid question: where do you add the code to have unsubscribe show up for the public?

I saw this:

# (optional) mode="subscribe" - Specify the mode of operation. options are:

    * subscribe (default) - display the subscribe form
    * unsubscribe - display the unsubscribe form
    * usersettings - display the usersettings form

but where do you throw in the mode="subscribe"?

Thanks in advance. This module is great if I can iron out a few issues. Thanks for the work on it.

Hi,

Well, i'm pleased to say that at least one of these issues has now been solved (and I also have a good idea of why the other is occuring).

I was personally having an issue with the confirm/unsubscribe links (the ones present in emails sent out) actually pointing to the wrong page. They were pointing to "moduleinterface.php", as oppose to "index.php". This was fixed by opening the "action.process_queue.php" file in a text editor, scrolling about 3/4 of the way down and replacing 'CreateLink' with 'CreateFrontendLink' 3 times.
