from the dept.
I would like to add an e-mail notification system so that when a new article is posted, a notification message is sent to a mailing list. How can I do this? Can I plugin a python method somewhere just after a posting is succesfully added? Or do I need to edit the product code? Thanks in advance, Hans

On the options tab there are two checkboxes for mailing new articles and enw replies ot the admin address. Check both of them.
On the properties tab, change the admin address to that of your mailing list.
New articles and replies will now also be mailed to your mailing lists. |

Hi Chris,
Thanks for the reply. I was not specific enough. I am using squishdot as a bulleting board for a sportsclub I am a member of. People can register via the site. They will need to leave their e-mail address. The site-administrators then assign people to the team they belong to. There is no real mailinglist involved.
I want to add an option to the addPostingForm so that site administrators can select the team to which they want to send an email notification that a message is added. This is done by checking, which users belong to the corresponding GRUF group. I send an email using MailHost, with a list of email addresses.
I was looking to customize the method that adds a posting and send it from there but I could not find it. If necessary I can also add the code to validatePosting, but I was hoping for a cleaner way.
Regards,
Hans

Maybe look at SVN?

It might be worth you having a look at the Squishdot code in the SourceForge subversion repository.
This has extra code for allowing you to subscribe to a particular subject, thread or part of a thread.
You may be able to use this to get what you need...
