Hi all,

I'm happy to announce the release of Yanc Subscribe 1.2 module for public.

This module has a few new features as compared to the last one:

1.) Shows multiple Mailing lists created in Yanc Component
2.) Able to turn on/off characters limit for long mailing list names
3.) Able to set the maximum number of characters to limit
4.) Able to turn off the "Name" field in the module for faster registration. All names defaults to "Subscribers"
5.) Ability to Subscribe and Unsubscribe from the module

It is now available at visualdensity.com. Will upload it to MOSForge tonight.

:)

UPDATE: I've just updated Yanc Module to release 1.2.1 because of several requests. It now includes:

1.) Client-side email validation
2.) Automatic detection of mailing lists - If there's only one, no drop-down menu. It defaults to the one mailing list published in Yanc component.

It is now available at the same link below.

Download it here:

Any problems, please post them here.

Thanks. Hope you all will benefit from this mod.

I've just updated the Yanc module with automatic detection. If you only have one mailing list in Yanc, the module will not have any drop down list. It will automatically defaults to the one mailing list available. I'm still testing it at the moment. Will release it soon.

Once the testing is completed, I'll upload it to my downloads section and will post an announcement here.

At the moment, yes. I do not yet know how to run a php script through the module_installer. Once I get a way around it, I'll automate it.

i've translated also the file phpmailer.lang-en.php and i've changed the
name in phpmailer.lang-it.php... i've to do something to let it be used instead

Good question. Errm.. I'm do not have answer to this question. I'm sorry. You might need to post this question on http://forums.mamboserver.com or on the Author (Adam) forum.

Cheers.

I think it is better if we have published and unpublished for each newsletter, if there is only one published ewsletter --> no drop down
Sometime we need to send newsletters to a group but not like to enable subcribe option

Hello VisualDensity!

Many thanks for this module.

I got a problem with it...

I just installed the new yanc subscriber 1.2.1 after installing yanc 1.2 and when I tried to subscribe someone to the newsletter I got the following javascript error:

A Runtime Error has occurred.
Do you wish to Debug?
Line: 184
Error: 'document.yancMod.listid.value' is null or not an object

Do you have any idea on how to correct this???

Do you have a brazilian translation for it?

Thanks.

Hi, The module looks to have a problem in Explorer (with version 5.0, not with 6.0) And alert appear and it looks to have problems with the "var filter=/^([\w-]+( ..." in the file mod_yancsubscribe.php (line 64)

If I delete this:
---------------------
<!--var filter=/^([\w-]+(?:\.[\w-]+)*)@((?:[\w-]+\.)*\w[\w-]{0,66})\.([a-z]{2,6}(?:\.[a-z]{2})?)$/i

if (filter.test(document.yancMod.email.value)) {
email = document.yancMod.email.value;
var a = true;
} else {
alert("Por favor, introduce una cuenta de email correcta.");
var a = true;
return false;
}
------------------------
the message doesn´t appear. Thanks,

Laura

Visualdensity thanks for this component.

I have a problem while trying to add subscribers and/or when I am trying to publish a mailing:

Warning: database(configuration.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/yiorgis/public_html/new/classes/database.php on line 75

Warning: database(): Failed opening 'configuration.php' for inclusion (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/yiorgis/public_html/new/classes/database.php on line 75

Warning: database(offline.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/yiorgis/public_html/new/classes/database.php on line 76

Warning: database(): Failed opening 'offline.php' for inclusion (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/yiorgis/public_html/new/classes/database.php on line 76

It seems like a database permision error but I know for a fact that all seting are correct.

When I try to add the new subsciber i get the error, but if I check back to see if the new subscriber is register in the db...it has!

Now when I try to do the mailing, the email is not sent out and gives me this:

Sending email: of 2

Warning: database(configuration.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/yiorgis/public_html/new/classes/database.php on line 75

Warning: database(): Failed opening 'configuration.php' for inclusion (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/yiorgis/public_html/new/classes/database.php on line 75

Warning: database(): Failed opening 'offline.php' for inclusion (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/yiorgis/public_html/new/classes/database.php on line 76

Thans for your response!

Do you have your permission settings for configuration.php set to 777 or 755 ? It seems that it couldn't open the configuration file.

Do check.

And note: I did not create this great component. It's written by Adam van Dongen. I merely written the module only.

Hi to all:

I have just installed the Yanc 1.2 component and Yanc Subscribe 1.2.1.
When I try subscribing the Front Page, I get the following error:

Fatal error: Undefined class name 'html_frontend_newsletter' in /home/httpd/vhosts/alp-deakin.com/httpdocs/components/com_newsletter/newsletter.php on line 24

I saw another reference to this error message in the thread suggesting that it was a consequence of not having the Yanc 1.2 component installed, but that doesn't seem to apply in my case. I can access the Yanc 1.2 component options - I haven't changed any yet.

Regards, Leigh

Does this exist ?

/components/com_newsletter/newsletter.html.php

If it does, make sure its permission is set to at least 755. I could be that the file cannot be read due to strict permission.

check for mutible subscriptions does not seem to work for me.. It allows the user to subscribe twice or more times, adding their email to the list multible times.

Any solution to this?

I have installed and configured Yanc.

The registering and mailing of users works fine through the admin

However when i use the module on my site and try to subscribe i get the following error

Warning: main(/home/higgins/public_html/classes/html/content.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/higgins/public_html/components/com_newsletter/newsletter.php on line 22

Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required '/home/higgins/public_html/classes/html/content.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/higgins/public_html/components/com_newsletter/newsletter.php on line 22

does anyone know how to fix this?? :( :(

Hi,

I've upgraded Yanc from 1.2 to 1.3 and reinstalled the 1.2.1 Module. If one enters their name and e-mail from the subscribe module and hits "Go!", then it takes them to the newsletter section where they see the list to subscribe to, even though there is only one (isn't it supposed to auto-detect it?). If they select "Subscribe" again, they are prompted to enter their name and e-mail again. URL is http://www.rsn.org . Isn't that a few too many steps extra? I'd like them to enter their name and e-mail and have it automatically subscribe them to the only newsletter there is.

The installation file says, "You will be able to configure the newsletter that you want the module to subscribe to," but it doesn't tell how. It only goes into parameter details on character limiting and hiding the name field.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Patrick

I have the same problem...and the new subscriber doesn't get registered, just redirected to the list.
.......it looks like 1.2.1 component is not compatible with yanc 1.3.1 ?

I'd like to be able to pass a hidden http post to subscribe someone to a newsletter. they would then be sent the confirmation message.

Similar to Yanc Subscribe Module, I've tried using:

index.php?option=com_yanc&Itemid=1&listid=1&email=email@domain.com&html=1&yanAction=subscribe

but it doesn't work.

any ideas?

Has anyone found a solution to this yet?
The subscribe feature from the component( 1.4. beta 2) area works but not the module(16)
