Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_PUBLIC in /home/virtualf/public_html/admin/modules/MassMailer/MassMailer.php on line 109

Am I supposed to replace something? If I were to paste this at the ent of the original .php file, I get that error. Line 109 is the start of your code above.

[dimitris]

I type it wrong sorry...

Place the lines under the

	public function index()
{
	$this->set('allgroups', PilotGroups::getAllGroups());
	$this->render('mailer_form.tpl');
}

and above the

	public function sendmail()
{
	echo '<h3>Sending email</h3>';
	if($this->post->subject == '' || trim($this->post->message) == '')
	{
		$this->set('message', 'You must enter a subject and message!');
		$this->render('core_error.tpl');
		return;
	}

So it will look like this:

worked first time Thanks great add-on!!!

I also added a link to the admin centre so you can access the feature from within the admin centre.

just add "Email individual pilots" and make it a link " www.yoursite.com/admin/index.php/massmailer/mail_pilot " to Admin/templates/core_navigation.tpl

which will take you straight to it from within the admin centre.

[Connor1994]

Is it possible to get a search box to look for the pilot instead of a drop down please?

[dimitris]

Yes it is You need a textbox and some javascript/jquery code to search the MySQL table. I m not familiar with this type of coding... I m sorry but I can't help with this, anybody else is welcomed to edit the module

Thanks!

[Connor1994]

I hope so!

[rpalmer800]

UH, it like automatically logs me out when i go to the link....

[Jeff]

Double check your link. It should look like this

<li><a href="<?php echo adminurl('/massmailer/mail_pilot'); ?>">Email Individual Pilot</a></li>

[rpalmer800]

oh, Yes there it is.... Thank you very much

[tgycgijoes]

[flyalaska]

Works perfect, ty

[StartVM]

I realize this is an old thread, but how can I make the {PILOT_ID} {PILOT_FNAME} {PILOT_LNAME} functions work with this?

[StartVM]

bump

[Vangelis]

what do you want to do ?

[StartVM]

what do you want to do ?

make the {PILOT_ID} {PILOT_FNAME} {PILOT_LNAME} functions work

[mseiwald]

I doubt that these are functions. I think they are just replaced in the module before the mail is sent.

With str_replace for example.

[Miggel]

Does anyone know how it works that "{PILOT_ID} {PILOT_FNAME} {PILOT_LNAME}" this system works?

[ProAvia]

Through the coding, those variables pull the pilots ID, first name and last name to be placed into the email.
