Well I have 2 problems:

1st problem is:

Administer >> Autoresponder >> Autoresponder (send message) >> Then when I send a message, then enter "0" as the day of the message I get this error:
"warning: checkdate() expects parameter 1 to be long, string given in /home2/biblica/public_html/biblicalmission/includes/form.inc on line 1218."

2nd problem is:

I can't send any messages to any of the subscribers! I can only send a mass e-mail to only the admins.

I created a set called "Welcome" then I would register to that set and try to send myself a message to test it, nothing happens.

do I have to KEEP croning after every message? Also after the user subscribes is there away to make them get an e-mail that says "You are subscribed" and things like that?

ahh I've been at this problem for 2 weeks now, please help me.

Thanks

Thanks for testing my module!
Your first problem is fixed (my fault). Second problem is partly fixed too. Autoresponder uses drupal cron only when it have to send daily messages. Other messages like massmailing and Day 0 messages will be sended immidiately after form submit.
Thanks again for testing :)

No problem, It is a great module!

So now you said you fixed these problems, does it update itself automatically? Or do I have to download them again from Drupal and install them again?

Thanks

You need to download and install module again (uninstall previous version first). And do not forget that module is under development, so post any issues you found. Thanks!

Alright, that message problem is fixed, Thanks.

Could you please explain what the cron is? I know where it is on the site and how to run it, but I don't understand when and why we run it?

Also, if you could release a "How to" file, because until now I can not send any message to a set. I created 1 set called "Test" and can't send any messages to the user subscribed to it (me)

About cron: http://drupal.org/cron
What does it mean 'cannot send messages'? E-mails not coming to your inbox? Or something else? Please explain your problem in details!

Okay. I got the cron thing.

About the sending of messages: The e-mail does not come to my inbox, it says e-mail was sent successfully but it does not come to a hotmail(i dont know about other e-mails)e-mail ------I checked the junk mail and still nothing.

Do you need to have more than 1 set for it to work?

Sorry if i did not include enough info, what more info do you need?

Thanks

Try to download and install module again. As i said in module page, it is on ongoing development, so please don't use it in productive environment!

Ah man, this would be a great Module if I fixed the problem for it on my site.

I have been looking for something like this for a long time.

Cyberpunk, do you have e-mail, I am even willing to create you an account on the site so you can check if there is something wrong or something

I am having a similar problem. I can make a set and message. But when i put my email address in as an anonymous user I do not get a autoresponse. Even though it is set for 0. Any ideas?

Drupal8472’s picture

i got the same problem as you man... and still haven't fixed it

Guys, sorry for this. Module is under active development and it has bugs, so do not bite me :) I am adding new features everyday, and sometimes hasn't enough time to test the module fully. At least i can say that your errors is fixed now. Please download and install module again!

Take module from CVS, not that archive on the main module page (drupal package system works not as fast, as i commit to CVS :) )

Hey Cyberpunk, You're doing a great job and I hope this goes well. It is a very great module that Drupal carries (1 of the only they carry that actually would increase the website flow)

Just had a little question (Sorry):

http://cvs.drupal.org/viewvc.py/drupal/contributions/modules/autoresponder/

or

http://drupal.org/cvs?file=/modules/autoresponder/autoresponder.module

Which one do we download since you said to download the CVS file?

Thanks

Got it. 1 Question,

When I send an e-mail, (to the subscribers, including me) -- it says:
"Attachments:
untitled-[1.1] 0.3 k [ text/plain ] Download | View
untitled-[1.2] 36 k [ text/html ] Download | View
"

Then I click on view and I see the message.

How do I do it so the message appears without it sent as an attachment?

Thanks

To add to my post on top:

1) Anyway to have it so you can ask for the user's nickname and e-mail at the same time while they subscribe?

2) Anyway to have an automated message sent right away after a user has been subscribed (i.e "Thanks for subscribing...")

3) Finally, If you can do #1 -- How do you do it so in the mass mail it will say Hi "user nickname", Thanks for subscribing etc...
This way you don't need to enter every nickname that was entered into the mass mail

Thanks
