Hi all,
i have an little problem, i have some users who are in some special usergroups, from time to time i wanna send them an important nore over mail or pm, but many have disabled to receive messages from admins.
Is there an way that i can send mails or pms to some groups also if the have disabled to receive mails.
I think this option was avaible on 1.2.x if i am right
, i miss that for 1.4.x, can anyone give me an workaround or solution for this, please.
Regards,
cHarOn
I don't think you can unless you remove the option for them to stop them. It sounds like you may as well do this - why give them the option to stop admin emails if you'd just overrule it and send them anyway??
How can u remove the option, i would like to know?
Give me 30 minutes (I'm at college and gotta go home
) and I'll give you steps
the thing is i wont make this for all users, because i also send out massmails to normnal users every 2 or 3 months (newsletter), i want the override because this is an betatester group, where users gets added and removed again also, sometimes they didnt realize that they deactivate that at registration
, so i wanna do it if really needed, because i dont wanna spam them.
So i wanna have an option to just override the settings for really important things

<td valign="top"><span class="smalltext"><label for="allownotices">{$lang->allow_notices}</label></span></td>
</tr>
And then in PHPMyAdmin:
UPDATE `mybb_users` SET `allownotices` = '1' WHERE `allownotices` = '0'
Make sure your table prefix,
mybb_ here, is correct. This will remove the option in the UCP, remove the option on registration, and set all current users to receive emails from admins.

:| You use the query..... you have to go into PHPMyAdmin, click your database from the list on the left, click 'SQL' at the top, and paste the query in.
