Version for D6?

This is fantastic news and something I'm sure a lot of people will be interested in using.

I too am just wondering if there is a timescale on the D6 version?

Thank you.

Yeah I can't wait for this to come out.

Gord please let us know how we can assist/contribute/help to the D6 release, if there is definitely going to be a D6 version?

Hi Tarnaurion,

Can provide an alternate link to the file?

Looking forward to testing this one out :)

Cheers

Hello,
I had no idea this module was around. I had been looking around for a while too.
I didn't think any drupalers were using IEM.
so i had made one of my own from scratch.
Maybe there are some things you can use from this approach as well.

My module allows:
- Restrict lists by role
- Options for where to place the subscriptions form (attach to the bottom of a content_profile edit form, new tab on account page, etc.)
- Rules module integration.

What I had planned to do:
- Some way of syncing custom field data with IEM. (from core profile and content_profile)
- possibly syncing a vocabulary to a custom fields options list (if i can figure out how to do that with the IEM API)
This would allow us to do segments in IEM that mirror the profile fields in Drupal.

Module is for D6
Ive been using this with IEM 5.5

maybe we can combine efforts, as I was planning on doing a little more development on this for a project I have right now.

I hope someone finds this useful.

This sounds promising. Is there an option for putting this into registration form - so that when user registers for the site, they can select to sign up for IEM newsletter?

Thanks.

Good to see that Drupal 6 modules are being worked on.

Can you please give us an update on where you are with these developments?

Also, can you please tell us:

a) what the modules do now
b) if you are planning further improvements.

Thanks

re: the code in #10.

What it does now:
provides checkboxes (similar to the way simplenews does) in the user account.
each checkbox is an IEM list. Which are all configurable in admin/settings/iem.
The subscription status is not stored anywhere on drupal, instead when the form is loaded the module grabs the subscription status from your IEM installation and populates the checkboxes. On submit it updates the IEM db. You can also restrict the available lists by roles.

The good thing about this is when you send a campaign, unsubscriptions and tracking is handled all in IEM.

The bad thing about this is I cant use subscription values in views.

So im thinking about storing the subscription values in a new table in drupal. and possibly have it sync everything on cron. but im not sure.

My version does not provide a form with a textfield for a user to enter an address and subscribe. Rather, the intent was to have the user register in Drupal, and have Drupal handle the email confirmation. Once an email is confirmed, if an IEM list was set to autosubscribe the email address will then be subscribed to the appropriate IEM lists. This way unconfirmed emails never touch the IEM db.

If a user changes their email, all IEM lists they are subscribed to are updated with the new mail.

It needs work, but i do have a version running on a production site on a limited level.

I have a need to get more features into this thing and iron out the kinks, in the relatively near future.
So, if there is interest in developing a solid, production ready module, I can help out a little. But I would definitely like to hear from the original developer, as my version was made w/o ever seeing this modules code, I'm sure there are things we can combine. I'm also open to suggestion if my approach can be improved.

I have also been working on syncing Drupal with IEM custom fields. Letting an admin specify token values for each list, from the user object, profile fields, and optionally a node if you are using content_profile. Ive, made good progress, but not contribution ready yet.

thanks.

I hope the original developer makes contact with you. Otherwise perhaps create a new module.

There's a discussion about this on Interspire's forum

Maybe this is the better, more flexible way to go: http://drupal.org/project/emf

Off course a separate module could have more functionality besides syncing and basic listing.

+1 for EMF + IEM
