Re: dadadev Click-through Tracker [WAS: updating profile field]

May 8th 2011 UTC

So is there potential for geotargeting email messages if one were to subscribe to such an IP database? Since my lists are to homeschoolers and there are some companies that offer virtual public schools only in certain states, I get geo-targeting requests a lot. If so, how would one go about integrating the IP database with dada to only email people in select geographic areas?

The disadvantage to that is that some email clients will reject emails with cloaked links (text has one URL and link has a different URL) because they think it is phishing. One way around that is to use the correct URL in the text but remove the http:// and just start the link with www. I haven't had those rejected. Warm regards, Mary Ann *From:* Yehuda Katz [mailto:yehuda+dada@PROTECTED] *Sent:* Sunday, May 08, 2011 3:38 PM*To:* Dada Mail Developers*Subject:* [dadadev] Re: dadadev Click-through Tracker [ ...Continue Reading

Re: Adding a Timestamp to subscriber table.

May 8th 2011 UTC

If you have PHPMyAdmin installed on your hosting account and you know how to use it, it's a simple thing to add a "date_entered" field to the subscriber's table that enters the current timestamp each time a new user is entered. 1) add a new field at the end of the table, name it date_entered. 2) Field type, Timestamp 3 Set the Default setting  to "Current timestamp". The current timestamp will be ente ...Continue Reading

Are the two links in this message being displayed this way by the click-through tracker on purpose?I am sure I speak for many people when I say that I really don't like email lists where there is no indication of where a link leads to. The click-through tracker probably does not run a virus/malware/phishing scan on a site before hiding its URL, blocking clues that a person might catch to tell them not to go to the site.- Y On Sat, May 7, 2011 at 9:36 PM, lea-ann <lea-ann@PROTECTED> wrote: well, I think I might ...Continue Reading
