This module is fantastic - thanks for all the work, Robert.

I wonder if I could suggest/request some additional features?

1) In the subscriptions tab in the user profile the 'preferences' for each newsletter do not appear. Is this deliberate? All that the user can do here is subscribe or unsubscribe. To actually choose which subterms they want in their newsletter and/or to change to and from html and text, they have to visit /enewsletter.

Should the interfaces be the same whichever path the user takes or am I missing something?

2) Is it possible to set the default format (text or html) within Drupal? I notice that the default is set in the database tables to text which is easy enough to change if you're SQL-savvy but would be better if it was in the admin pages.

3) For that matter, would it be possible for the user to select their preference (html or text) at the time of subscribing?

4) When a new user is registering, all the newsletter subscription checkboxes are off by default. Is it possible to provide the functionality per newsletter to decide what the default should be here? So we can decide that new users should have the checkboxes for certain newsletters on by default. They can still switch them off obviously but it is a simple way to make a suggestion as to which newsletters we think a new user should be subscribed to.

On the subject of 4), could someone let me know how to do this in the code in the meantime?

Hope this helps.

Regards

Patrick

Yes, planning to add all of those features in future.

Default should be all terms of a newsletter on when user subscribes to newsletter, which is how it works now. There is a problem at the moment that when you add new terms to a newsletter they don't get included in terms selected by users, but working on that.

By the way, if you want to make sure I work on these and other features could you post them one at a time, i.e. in seperate posts. That way it's easier for me and others to keep track of them and focus on them. Posted together like this they tend to get lost.

Robert,

No problem. Do you want me to re-post these features? And close this thread?
