Hi,
Is it possible to email any registered members an notification or announcement about any event added to the JS calendar? A setup so all members on our site are sent any email telling them about a new event or upcoming event to their email, ie, Meetup site?

Hi D,

I am sorry that is not possible we dont have feature like that, except that event is from group, so all members inside that group will get notification for the new events.

Best

Hi,

Thank you for the quick response.

If I added all members to one group, say "all regisitered members" from the backend, could I sent them all an email for events created in that groups? Or would that over load the system?

D. Ashley

No it wont, I suggest you use the 3rd party plugin to join the group automatically for every new registered member.. please try this www.jomsocial.com/addons/core-enhancemen...jomsocial-auto-group

another plugin www.socialables.com/product-downloads/au...ner/information.html

Hi,
I used one of the plugins you suggested. Thank you.
I received an email when I created an event in the registered users group. 2 things are unclear though:
1) how can I change the content of the email(s) sent from my site? Right now they are very generic. 2) if an event is changed , ie. time, date, place etc. another email update is NOT sent out to members. Is there anyway to make an updated email send when information about an event has changed?

Hi,

#1 you can edit and add some text inside this file components/com_community/templates/email.groups.event.html.php

#2 we dont have this feature, but I already added this on our bug list.

thank you

Hi,

Thanks for the quick response.
I checked the suggested file but there doesn't appear to be any thing to edit, safely.
*/
defined('_JEXEC') or die();
?>
<?php echo JText::sprintf( 'COM_COMMUNITY_EMAIL_GROUP_EVENT' , $this->escape($group), $this->escape($title)); ?>

I remember being able to more easily alter email text. Unfortunately I can't remember how I did it in previous version of JS.
Any other suggestions?

Hi D,

there is 2 posiblity

#1 you can edit the template file, like i said before, and you can add your additonal text below or above this code :

<?php echo JText::sprintf( 'COM_COMMUNITY_EMAIL_GROUP_EVENT' , $this->escape($group), $this->escape($title)); ?>

Great! Thank you.
