This is a minor bug but as it tripped me up for awhile and probably will trip others as well it should be fixed.

Basically, just in the form declaration, set the validation_string if it's empty so people can just go there and copy the key.

Hi Kyle -

Yes, this tripped me up indeed. :)

Will we have to go change the validation_string in site_info.php every time we make changes and hit SAVE in the og_mailinglist admin settings? If so, this might cause further confusion.. might warrant putting this option in a new tab or add some functionality to allow admins to recreate a new validation string if they want to, which they'd then be advised to update on the site_info.php side as well.

Cheers,

Tobias

No, it doesn't change on every page load after you save it once. But it isn't (wasn't) saved until you clicked "save settings".

This is fixed in http://github.com/KyleAMathews/og_mailinglist/commit/05947ecb52bbb2ff021...
