Subscriptions Port to D6

hi - just wondering if there's any update on the status of the 2.0 release and a pursuant drupal6 beta - any comments or insights would be greatly appreciated (i notice this original post is roughly 2 months old)

There will be a new beta version within a few days, and it will be the first to leave me with an empty TODO list.

hah! i'm sure there's some TODO floating around...did you check behind the phone? on the floor under the couch?

...also a quick question about workflow - i'm also looking at the very recently released 'comments notify' module for d6 which is specific to commenting and followup comment notifications but not top level node posting notifications..

does this impending release of subscriptions allow for comment level notifications - or are these two modules that would be used side by side?

:-)

Subscriptions lets you say with each subscriptions (as well as by user and site default) whether you want to get notifications of comments to subscribed items.

I don't know anything about 'comments notify'.

comments notify is simply restricted to just comments - in the spirit of many wordpress blogs that let you read something and then comment and then get a notification only if there are additional comments (versus being the author of the post and receiving notifications, or simply following a post without commenting - both of which appear to be supported by subscriptions)

@salvis - i just realized it's been a couple of weeks since you mentioned rolling out a possible beta this month - is it still in the works for march?

It took longer than I expected, but BETA12 (for D5) was out 30 minutes before you posted.

spooky...look forward to seeing the d6 vsn too...

btw, this is still showing up under d6 modules - does that current dev version reflect a beta12 port to d6, or is that still the 'wrong version' showing up again?

It is showing up under D6 modules? Please give me an URL.

Porting will not start until 2.0 is released.

go to drupal.org = modules - filter by d6 - look under 'mail' category. it's still in there with a live downloadable link to 6x1xdev!

go to drupal.org = modules - filter by d6 - look under 'mail' category. it's still in there with a live downloadable link to 6x1xdev! even though it isn't in the project page's own cvs! annoying, huh?

This is a bug on d.o — see #237839: Filtered project list shows unsupported releases.

Thanks for pointing it out!

good lord - you may want to a big bold note right on the project home page to clear that up! i can't even imagine how many people have downloaded it for d6...it's an immensely popular feature...

You're right, it's a pity for those who try to install it on D6 and fail. I put up a temporary notice.

ha, it's actually a pity for you because they'll all likely wind up back here pestering you in the support forum for the project ;)

I would like the port for D6 too, because I need this module for a phpbb to drupal migration.

I hope, you will release a stable branch for D6 in the next days.

Thank you very much :-)

Is there any chance of an upcoming update to D6? If not in the near future, would you be willing to accept a patch to update to D6?

@jcfiala: Yes, the update to D6 is on the way.

Thank you for your offer to help, but I need to understand what I'm doing, so I have to figure it out myself. Testing will be extremely welcome though.

Looking forward to the D6 release myself, I was one of those people who thought there was a dev release for 6 but there isn't. Wish I had found this thread first. :)
My community site is in beta and will be a great testing ground for subscriptions. Thanks for the hard work.

Definitely looking forward to it... I do believe that Subscriptions is all I'm needing to move to 6!

I'm curious as to how you're going to handle making a port when Mail Editor and HTML To Text are still not moving forward? I'm not a coder so I have zero understanding of how this all works, purely curiosity... no hurries.

Also, congrats on and thank you for 2.0... it's working very well!

HTML to Text is not needed, because it's already in D6 (it was actually taken from D6 to make it available under D5).

Mail Editor OTOH is what's holding Subscriptions for D6 back...

I've just posted an ALPHA version for Drupal 6.

It has had very little testing yet, so please consider it experimental and report any issues in this thread here.

Note: As long as we don't have Mail Editor, you can only use the default template.

hi,

iam getting string of error like this:

user warning: Table 'allinone.drupal62_subscriptions_user' doesn't exist query: SELECT uid, digest, send_interval, send_updates, send_comments, send_interval_visible, send_updates_visible, send_comments_visible, autosub_on_post, autosub_on_update, autosub_on_comment, send_self FROM drupal62_subscriptions_user WHERE uid in (-2, 1) ORDER BY uid in /hermes/bosweb/web137/b1377/sl.mykarteek/drupal62/modules/subscriptions/subscriptions.module on line 492.

thanks,
harineel

The installation should create four tables:

subscriptions
subscriptions_queue
subscriptions_mail_edit
subscriptions_user

or, since you seem to be using a table prefix

drupal62_subscriptions
drupal62_subscriptions_queue
drupal62_subscriptions_mail_edit
drupal62_subscriptions_user

Look into your database to see whether they're there.

Try disabling, uninstalling, and reenabling the Subscriptions modules. What does this do in your database?

Do you get any error messages when enabling the Subscriptions modules?

Do you see any errors on admin/reports/status, specifically regarding the "Database Schema"? Any information regarding Subscriptions in admin/build/schema/compare?

hi salvis,

everything is ok , but it is asking for mail_edit module, but there is not mail_edit module for drupal 6.2. how can i fix this?

Thanks for your feedback, harineel. We're waiting for the port of Mail Editor...

Looking forward to a stable D6 release, this looks like a great module.

Still looking for testers...

i'll try and test it a bit on my backup site...

I find that if the module works when only 1 mail needs to be sent: when it needs to send more than one mail I get:

PHP Fatal error: Function name must be a string in [...]/modules/subscriptions/subscriptions_mail.module on line 117

which is:

$mailvars_function($mailvars, $object, $field, $s);

This causes the cron to fail and so no mails are sent.

@flipip23: What Subscriptions modules do you have enabled, and what types of subscriptions are you triggering?

AFAIK as posted before, should all these problems should be solved when Mail Editor is ported to 6.x

*EDIT* I can test

**EDIT** how do I subscribe to this post, so I will get an e-mail notif, when a reply is posted?

The bug reported in #34 and #270715: Subscriptions Mail fails has been fixed.

@grn: please don't post the same thing in more than one thread. See the other thread.

I'm closing this thread here — let's continue with #273505: BETA3 for D6.
