CMS Made Simple Forums

I got some errors when running Newsletter Made Simple (NMS) module. I am not sure if they are bugs or my mistakes in using them.
Pls help

**** Error 1: ****
{cms_module module='NMS' mode='usersettings'}

I want t let the user modify his setting. The links in the email sent out by NMS creates an error : "Error! One or more required parameters are missing from the request. This action cannot proceed".

***** Error 2: *****
When processing a job, the message that is emailed out, has no value for  {$unsubscribe}, {$preferences} and {$confirmurl}. I even tried replacing them with {$unsubscribeurl} and {$preferencesurl} but it does not work.

*****Question 3: ***
Lastly I also want to change the default content when I compose a message. The default mesage is always
"Hello {$username}

Today is a nice day, mate.

If you have received this message to this email address: {$email} it means that you are a member of one or more lists on our website. You have a number of options, you can ignore the message (this is probably safe to do), or you can:

    * Unsubscribe: Just follow this link {$unsubscribeurl}
    * Change your preferences: Just follow this link {$preferencesurl}
    * Confirm that this is a valid email address by following this link: {$confirmurl}

Have a good day, and again, welcome."

Pls help me as I am still new to CMS. Thanks in advance.

I also got an error when I tried to click on the link in the unsubscribe email. The error I got is

"Error! One or more required parameters are missing from the request. This action cannot proceed"

Any idea what I did wrongly.

The NMS version I am trying is 1.0-beta6.

Hi uzoom,
http://forum.cmsmadesimple.org/index.ph ... 409.0.html
this topic can help you,but it's in italian.
You have to modify 2 files: action_usersettings_email.php and action.usersettings.php

OK a partial solution - so read carefully before you get excited. I could not get the links in email to work, even with the Italian fix. However the 'unsubscribe' link worked in the original confirmation email??  So I just needed a way to attach the 'unsubscribe' link to the bottom of my newsletter and that would be good enough for me. People would be able to subscribe and unsubscribe and I could send newsletters... but not so fast and not so easy...

I created an 'unsubscribe' page (I have a subscribe page as well,) to be able to link to it.

Then in the newsletter message I tried adding the links - but no luck, either with or without the href stuff. Either a link to 'x: ' something or  just the plain text.

Then a moment of inspiration - I've had a good few of these of the past week or so - so I hope I'm not going mad! If you use the internal CMS _Selflink -  the links work!! You can unsubscribe!!! Plus other internal links works as well so you could link to your 'contact' page or 'home' page.

Something like: (160 is the page for my unsubscribe.)

OK I still cannot get images to work, but that is just path stuff and could probably be fixed - but it's good enough for me. I just need to catch up on about 8 hours sleep and I'll be fine.

Hope this helps?
Keep up the good work calguy - it's definitely getting there - I saw all the stuff your doing in SVN - looks cool

P.S. I had to use this out of SVN and the Italian fix - nothing else - at least I don;t think so.
