The Pligg Notify Module implements a framework that allows pligg to send email notifications on certain events. Emails can be sent in either text or html format and are completely editable via simple smarty template files.

Features:

• Email Templates: All emails are fully customisable by editing a simple smarty template file. This allows you to customise the look and feel of both your text and html emails.
• Admin Notification of new stories: This is set in the admin section where you can specify a list of emails that should receive notification of new stories. You can also then set the format: text or html. Some sample email templates are included so there is nothing more that needs to be done. If you wish to add further styling or text to the emails, then you can edit the templates under modules/submit_email/templates. Available fields to use in the email are : story title, story author, story content, story category, story tags and story url.
• Notification of comments on your stories: When a new comment is posted on a story, the story owner can receive an email notification. This preference is configurable in the users profile page.
• Daily or Weekly Email Digest:Users can enable to receive daily or weekly email digests of all the posts that occur in the categories that they choose. This preference is configurable in the users profile page.
• Text or HTML Emails:Users can choose to receive either text or html emails. This preference is configurable in the users profile page.

Future Features:
We hope to expand this module to include items such as:

• new friend notification
• story published notification
• ... got another suggestion, let me know

Installation
To install The Notification Module for Pligg, you will also need a modified version of User Extra Fields.This has been included for you in the zip file.
1. In the zip file you will find both a notify folder and a user_extra_fields folder.
2. Copy both these folders to your pligg/modules folder
3. In pligg admin section, install user_extra_fields module v0.3
4. Then install notify module

Supported Pligg Versions:
This module has been tested and works with Pligg versions: 1.0 through to the latest 1.1.x versions.

Configuration
There are two areas that can be configured in the notification module:
1. Administrator settings. The administrator settings allow the administrator to enter email addresses to be notified when a new story is posted to the site. To configure this setting, in your site admin section, go to modules and next to the Notify module click settings.
2. User specific settings. User specific settings are displayed when a user edits their profile by clicking profile and then edit profile on you site.

Hi malexs,

Is this module compatible with pligg 1.04 ?

[feezesc]

Yeah is it compatible with 1.0.3?

I think its a very useful module

[Ascendancy]

Yeah great module, I'm excited to try it out! How long did this take to develop?

[malexs]

Hi Guys,
I'm running it with 1.0.3 at the moment, I will upgrade hopefully over the next couple days and let you know how it works with 1.0.4. As its only a minor update, I do expect it to still work.. I'll let you know for sure though

[ozlegolas]

Did you try it with Pligg 1.0.4?

[malexs]

Yes its all good for 1.0.4.
I previously updated the description to say this, but forgot to post it to let you know.

[ozlegolas]

I didn't notice that you have updated the description. However, I have already bought it, not tried it, but I'm sure it will work.

I'm interested in your auto image uploading module, too, but didn't see a link to buy.

I bought this module and like it. Easy to install works perfect.

hello,

I bought this module. It works fine, but it would be better if the users who has commented a story could receive a notification when a new comment is submitted.

Another idea is to extend this module with the anonymous comment module.
