Moodle Plugins Directory: Quickmail

^ I am curious about the same thing. We are wanting to upgrade to the most current version but this may hold us back to 2.5...

Cosmin, we actually have a separate feature called Admin Email that we use to send global email. if you are interested, it can be found in our GitHub repo here: https://github.com/lsuits/admin_email

To all that are asking about 2.6 release, I cannot give an ETA. We only do site upgrades once yearly, so we usually jump two point releases. Our next upgrade will be to 2.7 in Summer 2014. If we get the opportunity to upgrade and test Quickmail for 2.6 before then, we will try to do so, but our development queue is backlogged, so I cannot make any promises. I do apologize for any inconvenience that this may cause.

OK, Buddy, very very sad, but thanks for the honest reply.

I'm just going to test the current Quickmail in 2.6 as there are reports it is throwing an error in that version. But the stack trace looks like a simple fix...so can't be that much work! It's only changing some depreciated class name

"More documentation on this plugin" link is wrong and needs to be updated.

Thanks Tomasz, I have updated that link.

I have added a new version of quickmail, it uses the additional name fields for moodle 2.6 and updates the context function that was depricated in several locations, it should work with 2.6 and was made backwards compatible with 2.5 as well.
It primarily adds two columns in the log, to keep track if any messages weren't successfully delivered.

Removed german translation folder, as that is apparently being updated by AMOS

Thanks guys for 2.6. I use it all the time for my groups - awesome plugin.

We installed quickmail 2014022713 in our Moodle 2.6.2, and had to remove "AS" keyword in FROM clause in lib.php to match up the Oracle syntax. Other than that, the plugin works fine.

A quick question though, what is the maximum number of emails we can enter in the "additional email addresses" field?

Many thanks,
Bei

Bei,

There is no artificial limit to the number of addresses you can add in the "additional email addresses" field.

Also, where did you remove the AS keyword from? It may be something else thats causing the issue as (lol) AS is optional, but good-to-go, in Oracle.

Bei,

Oracle is pedantic about keywords being uppercase, so I've changed them to uppercase. Thanks for the heads up.

It's was "as" not "AS" (lol) that I have removed. Never thought Oracle would be that picky.

Thanks so much for your quick response.

Cheers,
Bei

Hi Robert,

Just wanted to let you know that I have changed them (3 places in get_non_suspended_users() function of lib.php) to uppercase, but Oracle still complains about it.

It seems like Oracle doesn't like "AS" or "as" as the keyword in table alias at all.

Cheers,
Bei
