Comment notify for 5.x
Comment notify for 5.x requires patching of comment module in core. Have you checked install.txt in the modules directory
--------------------------------------------------------------
My attempt with Drupal - Jaanlo.com
no, I cant see anywhere where
no, I cant see anywhere where i have to patch it, there is no text about this issue in comment or comment notification folder
Are you sure about this?
It seems for 6.x patching
It seems for 6.x, patching is not needed. but 5.x stable release still needs patching core comment module.
Check this issue to read more
http://drupal.org/node/334735
The following are the first few lines of my install.txt that came with comment notify
INSTALLATION
------------
1. Patch the comment.module at modules/comment/comment.module with the
file comment_notify_patch_to_comment.patch. If you are unsure how to
apply patch files please read http://drupal.org/patch/apply or simply
open the file and manually take the actions that it shows. For Drupal6.x
the patch was accepted and this is no longer necessary.
Note: When you upgrade Drupal core you will need to re-apply that patch
to keep this module working.

Hi I dont have any
Hi
I dont have any install.txt in the downloaded zip file?
All i have is readme.txt and it says this
------------------------
REQUIREMENTS
------------------------
This module requires a supported version of Drupal and cron to be
running.
------------------------
INSTALLATION
------------------------
1. Extract the notify module directory, including all its subdirectories, into
your sites/all/modules directory.
2. Enable the notify module on the Administer >> Site building >> Modules page.
The database tables will be created automagically for you at this point.
3. Modify permissions on the Administer >> Users >> Access control page.
4. Go to Administer >> Content >> Notification settings and modify the settings
to your liking.
Note: e-mail updates can only happen as frequently as the cron is setup to.
Check your cron settings.
5. To enable your notification preferences, click on the "My notification
settings" on the "My account" page. Or, similarly go to another user's
account page at user/ to modify his or her personal settings.
6. Additional options can be set at Administer >> User management >> Users by
clicking the "Notification settings" tab.
I cant find anything about patching
Can you explain where did you find install file
Which version are you using?
Which version are you using? What i posted was found in 5.x-2.2
--------------------------------------------------------------
My attempt with Drupal - Jaanlo.com

I am using the latest one
notify-5.x-1.3
and it says nothig about patching
So you actually get emails for each new comment?
I dont receive anything
and I have enabled everyhting
seems like I am confusing
seems like I am confusing notify module for comment notify
I just spot this problem right now
I will look at it
Regarding that patch, do you just copy few lines from txt document into file in the server? Or just copy the whole thing
And should you copy
+
-
infront of php lines? Or is that just a markup?
Thank you
here is the install file that
here is the install file that i get with comment notify latest version
1. Enable module on the Administer > Site Building > Modules
2. Grant permission to use this module:
http://example.com/admin/user/permissions#module-comment_notify
3. Configure the settings for comments, especially
-comment moderation on/off
-users must leave their contact info (set to yes, or optional)
4. Configure this module at Administer > Site configuraiton > Comment Notify
-Determine which content types to activate it for
-Determine which subscription modes are allowed
-Configure the templates for the e-mails
OPTIONAL MODULES
----------------
Performance: If you notice that your site is very slow when submitting
new comments it is possible that the problem is with sending the mails.
One option is to use the Queue Mail module
http://drupal.org/project/queue_mail
COMPATIBILITY NOTE
------------------------
Comment Notify is not built to work
on sites where other mail related modules are installed (modules like Actions,
Notify, Subscriptions, and Organic Groups are popular examples). If you install
both Comment Notify and one of these other mail modules on your site in addition
to Comment Notify it may send duplicate messages and/or have user interface
elements that will appear to be duplicates and confuse your site visitors.
The suggested configuration in these instances is to separate Comment Notify and
whatever other mail module you have installed. Common ways to separate them are
by content type or user permissions.
There is nothing about patching?
you know what , I had made
you know what , I had made actions and trigger to send me email lwhen a new comment is made, so probably this is why it is not working
I will retest it again
