For anybody else running into this, you'll also need to add edit_username varchar(50), create_username varchar(50), & create_date int(10).

This is fixed in 1.7.2 also.

Chris D updated Notifications with a new update entry:

Fixes {pagetitle}, formatting issues and potential installer issue

This update restores the {pagetitle} placeholder which should return the current page title. Due to a bug this was previously showing just the board title instead.

Certain HTML formatting such as bullet / numbered lists are now possible in Notifications using HTML or the Redactor editor.

This update also resolves an issue with the installer which may affect you if you are upgrading from a very old version of the add-on.

Some people are reporting that they have not been receiving e-mails...

This is what I get when I try to use an older email. :/

You hit some sort of FetchApp limit, can't really see why, but I have reopened the order anyway so you should be ok now.

 

[The Dark Wizard]

I have not been getting the emails either.

Sorry if I am being a bother but bullets still not working for me and {name} in title appears to not work as well. 1.7.2 shows up in version number and I was careful to upgrade to the proper directors.

*** Adding a screen to show some minor issues I am having



This update is great! I love the new features in the editor! Here are some minor bugs I have found.

1. Preview didnt work with images until I saved and edited again. Alignment of the image did not seem to be preserved in the editor but was saved correctly in the notification (appears to now be in sync after a save or two now). This might have been caused by me not saving a preview.
   
2. Bullets still not working for me.
3. {name} not working for me.

Threw in the above shot hoping it would help.

 

[DaiAku]

It looks like after saving the edits now has the graphic in alignment - so the 2nd part of may not be a bug. I will cross it out.

1. If it saves in the Notification that's all I really care about but in actual fact every one of the cases you mentioned works fine for me.
2. They work in the Notification, but I can confirm they don't show up in the Admin preview.
3. {name} works fine in the text, it's just the title where it doesn't work.

FYI in case you weren't aware; in the emails we get it is stated we can only download three times from the link before it expires.

And no email here either. I'll try one of the prior links later from home.

 

[Chris D]

The 3 downloads is reset when each new version is pushed out.

 

[Chris D]

This is my testing:

1) I buy version 1.6.2 of Notifications, I receive an e-mail containing a link to my download (this link never changes):



2) I download it 3 times:



3) Version 1.7.2 gets released. Let's pretend I don't receive the e-mail. I find my old e-mail. The link inside it is identical to the one that would be sent in the new email:



So, same link, previously expired, contains new version.

I've wasted about an hour today trying to explain to people and respond to PMs and check orders. Keep an e-mail, bookmark the URL, watch the resource here. Don't bother waiting to receive an e-mail from FetchApp just download it from the link you already have!

 

[Lisa]

For what it's worth.. I got an email *ducks the flying pointy weapons*

 

[Chris D]

I have not been getting the emails either.

I found the order that I believe to be yours, knowing what your real name is (or at least your first name plus last name initial), and according to the order history the emails have been sent and you even downloaded 1.7.0 last night. If that's correct, please see my post above.

Got it ok. Thanks! Love the addon.

 

[Chris D]

Just to clarify, I will be fixing points 2 and 3 in the next version.

Decided not to bother with the next version today though. I will wait until I have a spare hour to explain the missing email scenario

Got it!

I did indeed download something yesterday, it was really late and the email had been accidentally moved to spam so I didn't see it later today.

Thanks :3

I'm sorry Chris but I'm now having problems since the upgrade. When I created a new notification, I noticed that it didn't display after saving it (though it did show in the preview). Re-creating it didn't solve it. I then noticed that the guest notice wasn't showing when I was logged out, no it seems that no notifications are showing.

I've tried re-uploading and upgrading several times. I've disabled all other add-ons. I've rebuilt the master data, all to no avail. I've checked the page for errors but there aren't any. I'm at a complete loss as to why it's not showing notifications at all. Any ideas what I should do next?

 

[Chris D]

You appear to be the only person experiencing this.

Double check the criteria for all notifications, check if there are any outdated templates, clear your cookies (or try in a different browser), restore dismissed notifications, reset notifications.

@Martok, is this at SeniorGamers? If so, clearing your cache won't do any good if it is installed at the time I posted this. I visited there and it didn't display. If nothing else, try totally removing the add-on, deleting the associated files and then re-installing.
What I would do in that situation is totally remove (after copying my current forum structure to a .bak and exporting the current DB - that way I could restore it all if that didn't resolve the problem) with a fresh install. But I am also know to go the long way around to fix something.
