Autoresponder upgrade to Drupal 6

The patch above doesn't seems to work on Drupal 6.6.. even tried using Deadwood module but with no suck luck.
Also - I am looking for a way to assign user Automatically to autoresponder list upon registration.

I had tried the following code, serval problems with it:

1. when going to admin --> autoresponder, I get a white screen. only when going to admin --> by modules --> autoresponder settings I can actually see something.

2. non-english charecters appears in gibrish, can't understand a word.

3. when creating new set/message, it doesn't really create those messages..

4. feature request - it would be AWESOME if admin could automaticly assign a set to each new registred user!

I'll be happy to test more patches and let everyone knows about bug/improvments idea that I found.

Finally, after a few months of using autoresponder on drupal 5, I decided that SOMEONE should port it to Drupal 6, so, I decided to donate some $ and asked for a great coder (Roberto Gerola) to finally port it to drupal 6, and on the way - add some really cool features!!

So, this version is:

• Fits well to drupal 6
• Attached is mimemail module, which integrate with autoresponder (Now supporting multi langauge like hebrew, etc)
• Automaticly subscribe a user to a set (with/without showing him a checkbox on the registration page)
• more to come!

I think this module should be implented and release to the community, since this is a MAJOR improvment to the current module.

Please, post any comments / bug report on the current version.

Roberto - thank you.

Thanks a lot for your contribution, i reviewing the code now! What is the version of mimemail module you attached? Is it modified? Or it is development snapshot of 6.x-1.x-dev branch?

If everything will be alright i'll release Autoresponder Drupal 6 version in the next couple of days.

Hi, the mimemail module hasn't been modified. It is the dev version.
Roberto

thanks a lot!

Thanks for doing the work to update this module for D6. My heart sank when I saw the project page without any mention of D6; glad I dug in and found this thread.

Anyway, testing the module now. All good so far. One minor minor issue - when viewing the messages in a set, they're listed alphabetically by title rather than by Day #. Seems to me that Day # would be the best default sort order.

I'll post more notes as I test the module (if necessary).

The new module is continuing to do well in testing.

A couple of things I've come across:

- Status (i.e. when last message was sent) is showing January 1, 1970 rather than the actual date when the last message was sent.
- I edited the Footer in the General Settings, then signed up as a new subscriber but I still got the old footer.
- If you were adding additional features, having a different footer for each set (or at least allowing a set to override the standard footer) would be great.

Thanks

So what's the status?
Is this working well? I definitely need this. Very cool of you guys to contribute it.

Um could someone give me a hand getting that file installed. I'm not sure how to make it into a module.

Guys, today i created new Drupal 6 branch (based on eranglr efforts), so i think in the evening we will have dev version packaged! Please test it and report bugs here, i will fix them and when we all will be satisfied i'll create a stable release. Thanks for your interest in autoresponder!

Hi Cyberpunk
I'm VERY happy to hear that!
This is a very importent module that should be advertise to the rest of the community.
Hope for a good and solid release.
Thank you
