Tiny MCE should be easy enough to use in Dada Mail, you can do it without even touching Perl code, just the templates. The two you'd want to play around (to start) with are: admin_js.tmpl and: send_email_screen.tmpl First, install it ala: http://wiki.moxiecode.com/index.php ...Continue Reading

I'm probably not going to do away with the separate plugin (or the interface), just because there's a lot of stuff the plugin deals with, that the regular, "Send a List Message" screen doesn't. For the time being, anyways. If you look at the interfaces, they're pretty different. I agree that something a bit more unified for all the ways to send a message and st ...Continue Reading

Question regarding "Sendmail"

December 5th 2007 PST

Hello, I am not sure if this list is the proper place to ask this question. I am trying to run DADA mail many months now. I've run it on my normal server once, it was fine (June). I've run it second time (July), and the administrator suspended my account. I've got 8k+ recipients and 50k visitors per month, so it was inconvenient. It took them 3 days to set it back, after a lot of email exchanges. I 've got another domain. Run it once, fine (Oct). Run it second time (Nov), my account is suspended again. This time, my n ...Continue Reading

Fwd: Redesigning the, "Send a List Message" Screen

December 5th 2007 PST

It all sounds good, especially that last bit about hooking up from an outside form.  I have a client with so little computer knowledge that even logging in to the control panel is beyond him.  I now have a form that I built that uses send_dada_mail.pl which the client can get to.  If I can hook into the current system, it will be much easier to work with this client.

Re: Redesigning the, "Send a List Message" Screen

December 4th 2007 PST

Hi Justin: All of these ideas sound great. Simplify. I would vote to incorporate the features of the scheduler into the main sending window and do away with that as a separate plugin. One complaint that I hear about the sending process is that there is no way to save work between sessions. So if you are designing an HTML email and you need to get approval before sending, you are forced to either leave the browser window open or save the plain text and HTML parts out to a separate text file on your hard drive. The w ...Continue Reading

Redesigning the, "Send a List Message" Screen

December 4th 2007 PST

Um, The, "Send a List Message" screen is in dire need of redesign. The design hasn't changed much since 2.0, released a million years ago and things have just been tacked on. I'm wondering if anyone can give me a good idea on how people are using this screen and what gets in their way and what feels clumsy? Some ideas I had: - Get rid of the, "Simple" and "Advanced" screens. It makes things messy in the code and the different layouts get confusing. - Separate the various form ...Continue Reading

Subscriber Field Tags - dot notation?

December 3rd 2007 PST

Hey everyone, I'm working on finally getting support for being able to tweak the Subject (easily) of the subscription confirmation, subscription successful (etc) email messages via the list control panel. Currently, you can customize the body, but not the subject. Which is strange. Figuring out the best way to do this correctly, I cobbled together support for the current email templating system into the headers! This means you can have the "To:" header set like this: To: "[first_name] [last_ ...Continue Reading
