Re: Private Messaging (pun_pm)

I use Punbb 1.3 Rc.
And i trying to instal Punbb_Pm RC version.
And i havn't installed other extensions.

PunBB, the FluxBB of tomorrow - today!

Re: Private Messaging (pun_pm)

Here is an instruction that fixes the issue:

1. Open manifest.xml in pun_pm directory.

2. Find the following code (lines 73-77):

WRONG:

'body'        => array(
    'datatype'        => 'TEXT',
    'allow_null'    => false,
    'default'        => '""'
),

3. Delete the "'default' => '""'" line.

RIGHT:

'body'        => array(
    'datatype'        => 'TEXT',
    'allow_null'    => false
),

Or you can just download the new version of manifest.xml from svn.

Thanks for your report.

Agree: no need to give ID to open user's inbox.

Now there are no user id in the links! smile
(new version for RC2 is publised in SVN)

Re: Private Messaging (pun_pm)

Is there an option to disable PMs? I didn't find any.

Re: Private Messaging (pun_pm)

Disable the extension from Administration>Extensions.

Re: Private Messaging (pun_pm)

I meant user-side.

I didn't get it. Do you mean that user must be able to disable receiving messages from other users? There is no option like this in pun_pm.

Or anything else?

Exactly.

Re: Private Messaging (pun_pm)

Maybe this could be added to a new version? Another cool idea would be to add a blacklist (to block spammers or annoying people).

We'll consider this suggestion, but I (personally) don't think this option is really necessary. Do you have ideas about when and why user wishes to disable PM?

Re: Private Messaging (pun_pm)

Maybe when they're getting spammed by other users. But, instead, you could make a blacklist to block certain users or all users .

Blacklist is a sound idea smile
Added to the spec.

If the idea is dropped please add hooks (if not present already) to allow users to implement the feature. Thanks.

Spam, offensive posts or simply no interest in PMs.

Added to the spec too.

By the way, do you receive spam via PM here?

No, I just thought it's better to be safe than sorry.

I vote for this to be implemented in next version.
Not all users want PM. I often would better like to receive e-mail, than PM.

Re: Private Messaging (pun_pm)

Installed this plugin on a custom styled fixed-width forum.

Am seeing the To & Subject fields appear out of width, and the whole entry area isn't left justified, sort of sits in the middle:

Not sure if what I'm seeing is a style issue or a result of how the plugin is set up but thought I'd share here. Any ideas on how to fix this?

Re: Private Messaging (pun_pm)

Both this form and the post topic form have similar html. Is there any problem with the post topic form? If there is a problem, you have to edit former Oxygen.css file. If there is no problem, try to edit pun_pm style. You can find it in '/extensions/pun_pm/styles/Oxygen' folder.

If you have created your own style with a new name, put in /extensions/pun_pm/styles a folder with the same name that will contain styles for pun_pm.

It appears yes the same issue in post topic frm, so false alarm. I will fix it in the .css (and that will hopefully fix it in the PM)

What was changed from 1.2.2 --> 1.2.3 ?

I've fixed two bugs: message quotations in lists and "New messages" link at the top of the page (though it's not a pun_pm but PunBB issue).
