Questions about email notification, newsletter functions

[jaleelb]

I tried setting up email notification in the control panel, hoping it would send a message to a certain address whenever a new image was posted.  Unfortunately, it only send an email when a pictures needs validating.  Is there a way to send a notification if someone directly uploads an image?

Also, the features list on the website mentioned a newsletter function.  Unfortunately, I can't read german, so I'm not sure where this function is located.  It doesn't appear in the control panel - perhaps I'm missing it? (Using 1.6.1)

You can send mail to one or all of your users from the Control Panel under the "Send Mail" option. It is the last option under the "Users" section.

True - what I meant was to have an email automatically sent to one particular address whenever someone adds a picture to the gallery.

For example:

1. a registered user directly uploads an image to the gallery
2. an email notification detailing what was uploaded is automatically sent to newsletter@isp.com

It alerts those subscribed to the newsletter that a new picture is available.

This function works whenever someone uploads a pic that needs to be validated, but not when a picture is directly added to the gallery.

This would be a great function.

1. A user can subscribe to a category.

2. He will be automatically emailed if someone uploads a new image to that category.


Hope someone ( V@ano) , can bring in a MOD for this?
Thanks

I would love to have something exactly like this as well.
