I'm suddenly getting this error message when attempting to email other forum members. To the best of my knowledge, this is a new problem. The permissions for this file are set at 644.

Any...

[Bill Bickley]

I searched the manual, but didn't see an answer to this. What does the "friends" thing do? Can I make it go away if I wish? Why would I add or promote it to forum members?

I inadvertently closed the browser in the midst of sending an email to forum users (Using 3.8.5). Will the balance of the list be processed even though the browser had been closed?

TIA....

[Bill Bickley]

I'm currently running 3.8.4 PL2 with PHP 4.3.9. My host wants to upgrade PHP to 5+.

Should I anticipate any problems? Is there anything I should do in advance of the upgrade?

I'm using a leased copy of 3.8. When the time comes to renew, MUST I upgrade to 4.0?

Anybody remember the New Coke/Coke Classic debacle?

Bill

[Bill Bickley]

I don't "already have" 4.0. the question is, "Do I buy it?" That 's why I posted it here....

[Bill Bickley]

I have multiple sites running 3.8 forums. I see absolutely nothing in 4.0 that would make me ever consider upgrading. How do I stay with what I have, forever?

I hope you guys haven't killed...

Wayne, would either moving or copying generate a notification email if the target location has an "email address to notify" set up?

Copying them, using the tool built into vBulletin. Not creating a new post and then populating it with the traditional Windows cut/paste tool.

I have forum "A" set up with email addresses to notify when there is a new post.

If I enter a new post in forum "A", the emails are sent.

If I copy a post/thread...

[Bill Bickley]

Could you briefly explain to me how to do that?

It turned out that my ISP offers a mail list service. I was able to set up a single email address as you suggested.

Thanks so...

[Bill Bickley]

I was hoping to populate this field with a list of 50-60 addresses, to provide instant notification of new posts/threads at the forum level for an entire user group. By vbulletin standards, the forum...

[Bill Bickley]

Is there a limit to the number of email addresses to notify when there is a new post or thread in a specific forum?

[Bill Bickley]

Is there a simple way to add multiple new users, as from a spreadsheet?

Bill

[Bill Bickley]

Is there a way to enable email notifications to those who have right of access to a particular forum when a new thread or post is generated on that forum?

Bill

[Bill Bickley]

I'd like for only a single primary group to see my joinable group as an option.

[Bill Bickley]

How do I go about restricting membership in a joinable group to a specific primary user group?

Bill

[Bill Bickley]

My forum members don't seem to be able to add an avatar. When I log in as Administrator, I see an "Edit Avatar" option in my User CP. When I log in as a regular member, I don't see that option....

[Bill Bickley]

Is there a convenient way to remove RSS threads posted to the forum from a specific source?

Bill

[Bill Bickley]

I have the user reputation system disabled, but those buttons still show up. Is there a way to remove them?
