Newsletter script
Hi developers, I found a free newsletter script - xNewsletter 2.0, which does not require a database and is functional. He could be one of you to recode plugin for CMSimple_XH?

Thank you, Josef

I tried the latest free version and it returns:
Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function split() in /<MyLocalHostPath>/plugins/newsletter/phpmailer/class.phpmailer.php:1729 Stack trace: #0 /<MyLocalHostPath>/plugins/newsletter/admin.php(147): PHPMailer->MsgHTML('\r\n\t<img src="./...') #1 /<MyLocalHostPath>/cmsimple/cms.php(1164): include('/Users/msereday...') #2 /<MyLocalHostPath>/index.php(12): include('/<MyLocalHostPath>...') #3 {main} thrown in /<MyLocalHostPath>/plugins/newsletter/phpmailer/class.phpmailer.php on line 1729

It's no shame to ask for an answer if all efforts failed.
But it's awful to ask without any effort to find the answer yourself.

Re: Newsletter script
Yes, there was a reason Jerry had to release newer versions. Unfortunately they are not free any more.
I changed quite a lot in the code to make his old version work for me, but not enough to have a completely new version which could be published. Could be done in future, as, after all, the plugin is based on GenizNewsletter (which unfortunately is gone together with our history in cmsimplewiki.com, and which was very buggy to say the least).

The "ereg" extension is missing. It has been removed as of PHP 7.0.0, but may still be available from a distro repository.Tata wrote:Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function split() in
One should be careful with such old scripts (split() had been already deprecated as of PHP 5.3.0); there may be more issues.

Of course. I just tested if/how does it work with 1.6.7.
MailChimp and AdvancedForm_XH seems to me to be very safe and comfortable solution. There is excluded automatic sending, but it can be done additionally, for sure.

Re: Newsletter script
I'm afraid that adapting this script to CMSimple_XH might be more work than writing a new plugin from the start. However, the script could be used in an IFrame (and yes, I don't like IFrames, too).oldnema wrote:Hi developers, I found a free newsletter script - xNewsletter 2.0, which does not require a database and is functional.

I also think that it is best to separate the (un)subscribing from the actual sending of the mails. The former has to happen on the Website, but the latter has not necessarily (on could do that even from a local PC). However, Advancedform_XH shouldn't be used for the (un)subscribing, because you have no control on whether a(n) (un)subscriber is really the person he is supposed to be. Instead somebody else may unsubscribe an email address which isn't his own (just annoying), or somebody else may subscribe an email address which isn't his own (may have legal consequences, for instance, in Germany).Tata wrote:MailChimp and AdvancedForm_XH seems to me to be very safe and comfortable solution.

Therefore, the (un)subscription process needs a two-factor authentication, similar to the password forgotten feature of CMSimple_XH.

I would prefer doubled authetification both for sub/unsubscribing anyway.cmb wrote:I also think that it is best to separate the (un)subscribing from the actual sending of the mails...

A plugin that would:
1. Genarate e.g. a PDF, HTML and plain text files from "Newspaper" page
2. Would keep subscribers
3. Would send emails with the HTML/plain text or PDF in message body or its attachement
Would be very nice.
