Never mind. I figured it out. Had to do with a lack of experience with HTML::Template. The upgrade did restore the root login and list owner title but didn’t allow for the user of root_login until I added root_login to the params passed to the template in the view_list function of the mail.cgi. Starting at line 3293 of the mail.cgi for 6.3 alpha 1: my $scrn = DADA::Template::Widgets::screen( { -list => $list, -screen => 'view_list_viewport_widget.tmpl', -ex ...Continue Reading

I was in a rush and as soon as I sent it I realized that I should have been more descriptive. Basically, we manage outbound lists for a large healthcare organizations. They use the lists to send out updates, notices, etc to their direct employees ...Continue Reading

Re: styling of variables inserted by Dada

April 2nd 2013 PDT

If you use Google Chrome as your web browser (and possibly some others, but I don't know offhand), you can easily eliminated the copy-paste formatting problem by using *Ctrl-Shift-V* to "Paste Text Only" instead of the regular *Ctrl-V*, as a workaround (it's *Command-Shift-Option-V* on Mac).

An oddity with the root_login template variable

April 2nd 2013 PDT

For some strange reason it is no longer getting picked up.  All of the menu items still show but when I try to use the “tmpl_if root_login”  to hide a widget, it considers all logins as non-root.  Also the title no longer shows “ PROGRAM_NAME Root”.  I’ve been looking through the code but cannot find where the root_login template variable is instantiated.  Was wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction. Thanks in advance.A.J.  Post: mailto:dadadev@PROTECTED Unsubsc ...Continue Reading

Re: styling of variables inserted by Dada

April 1st 2013 PDT

Thanks, Justin. That's easy enough. If I paste in source code, it will eliminate the problem as well, I guess. That's easy too, until a more permanent fix is available. I would help with that if I could, but I haven't got any javascript experience.  Warm regards,Mary Ann On Apr 1, 2013, at 4:49 PM, Justin J wrote:Looks like I can recreate this problem, pretty easily, but just copying the tag I want to use, (in your case: <!-- tmpl_var subscriber.first_name --> ), from the listing in the, "Subscriber Fi ...Continue Reading

Re: styling of variables inserted by Dada

April 1st 2013 PDT

Looks like I can recreate this problem, pretty easily, but just copying the tag I want to use, (in your case: ), from the listing in the, "Subscriber Fields" tab and pasting it into the WYSIWYG editor. That's because the tag listed in that tab is already formatted, with tags, which the editor will happily copy, along with the text. Ugh. A lame workaround, if you're using CKeditor, is to use the, "Paste as PlainText" button, which is located on the third row, fourth button to the left - it goes ...Continue Reading

styling of variables inserted by Dada

April 1st 2013 PDT

I'm wanting to send mailings using the <!-- tmpl_var subscriber.first_name --> template, but I'm finding that the name variable comes through in the email wrapped in <code></code> tags that make it a different font. Hopefully you can see the example below - I'm using arial but it's coming through with a different font. It makes the name stand out as clearly an item fed from a merged file, which doesn't make the email seem very personal.  Is there a way I can change that? Warm ...Continue Reading
