Thanks, but developer dont anserw

I'm trying to create a rule whose condition is that the post content contains a link. I tried just setting it up to search the content for the string "http", but it never triggers. So then I tried writing a custom PHP script to do what I want, but there is a bug in it that I can't isolate -- I get no error message, the page load just crashes. Can anyone either help me figure out why the first method doesn't work, or figure out what's wrong with this PHP set up as a truth value test, "Value is TRUE"? //<?php return stripos($content->$content,'http') !== FALSE;

I personally do not think it is easy to do... But I can suggest to write a request to authors of that plugin to integrate it with Kevin's Rules. They have their website here: https://ipb.silvesterwebdesigns.com/

Custom Profile Field (Toggle) as Condition upon registration
Kevin Carwile replied to Daniel B's topic in Knowlegebase
It's probably because that field has not yet been populated by the member creation process at the time when the rule is ran (which is immediately after the member object is created.) I'm guessing it is a timing issue. You need your rule to run at the end of the member creation process, but it's actually triggered at the very beginning. To compensate for that, you need to offset your condition evaluation to the end of the process. In order to do that, create a custom action from the Rules ACP which takes a member argument. Then create a rule for that custom action which checks the profile field value and has the appropriate actions if the condition is true. Then what you do is trigger your custom action from the "Member created" event, but you set the action to run at the end of the page load, that way, your custom action rule can evaluate against the member once the member data has been fully populated by the creation process. -
Custom Profile Field (Toggle) as Condition upon registration

Hi Kevin. Unfortunately already tried with that Comparison Type and it fails as well. The debug simply states that the condition didn't meet. So I'm really not sure how to troubleshoot. -
Custom Profile Field (Toggle) as Condition upon registration
Kevin Carwile replied to Daniel B's topic in Knowlegebase
Oh, sorry. Yeah, you are right. That should be the correct thing to compare to. Just try lossening your value to check to TRUE like, that way if the value of the profile field is something like an integer value of 1, the truth comparison will still see it as true. -
Custom Profile Field (Toggle) as Condition upon registration
Daniel B replied to Daniel B's topic in Knowlegebase
But when I compare against "Member that was created" isn't the content between parenthesis the custom field already? (pre-candidato is the custom field) ... Or should I use [member:field_xx] instead? -
Custom Profile Field (Toggle) as Condition upon registration
Kevin Carwile replied to Daniel B's topic in Knowlegebase
Looks like your comparing the "Member that was created", which is a Member object to see if its value is Boolean TRUE. Which an object is not a boolean true value. I'm not sure how the value for that checkbox is represented in the system, but I'm guessing that at a minimum, you want to use the "Value is TRUE or equivalent to TRUE" condition to do a soft evaluation of the value. And the value you want to compare is not the "Member that was created". You want to compare against the value of their custom profile field. -
email composition fields not opening in Rules
Kevin Carwile replied to liquidfractal's topic in Issue Tracker
I've seen this issue myself. I believe it has something to do with a javascript race condition that occurs on production sites based on the way that the javascript files are combined together by the IPS production packaging. I've tried to work around it a couple of times but still do not seem to have fully succeeded. -
Hello, For a future release, I'd like to be able to configure rules around PMs, e.g., I'd like to send out an email notification to members (or members of group X) if they have unread PMs in their mailbox (or mailbox X) which are X weeks/days old. This is only one example, but it seems to me that PMs are glaringly absent from the Rules parameters and should be built in. If there is a way to specify PMs, I don't see it and quite frankly it should be easily accessible in the listing as it is an important aspect of the core suite. Thanks!

I'm trying to make it when a topic is created in a specific forum that the author auto follows the topic. but i don't see an option for anything related to follow in actions. is this not an option?

Custom Profile Field (Toggle) as Condition upon registration
Daniel B posted a topic in Knowlegebase
Hello there, I'm trying to create a rule that adds a secondary member group to a registered user that toggles ON a yes/no custom profile field: I'm using the Truth value for this custom profile field. But it does not work: Any advise? Already tried "Value is TRUE or equivalent to TRUE (any non-empty string/array, number not 0)" but doesn't work either. Regards. -
email composition fields not opening in Rules
liquidfractal replied to liquidfractal's topic in Issue Tracker
Strange...I've never had this problem. But in terms of an update of the original topic: I tried exporting my rules, uninstalling Rules and reinstalling from scratch. Then, I tried creating a simple rule which involved sending an email as an action - still got the missing editor space. Re-imported my rules so I'm back to where I started. Stranger still - my development site doesn't have this problem. It's a slightly different domain name on a completely different account, but both sites are on the same VPS server. My dev site also has all the same apps and plugins installed as well. -
email composition fields not opening in Rules
alexis replied to liquidfractal's topic in Issue Tracker
I had and have this situation too. If I change conditions or actions for a rule many times, the Save button doesn't do anything in this rule. Then, I just click "Enter" when on the Rule name line. -
email composition fields not opening in Rules
liquidfractal replied to liquidfractal's topic in Issue Tracker
Aha! This worked. Thank you! Although there's still some strange behaviour: I save as something else, then switch back to manual configuration and get my email window back. If I edit my email content and save again, then go back to edit further, the email window disappears again - I have to repeat the save process to get the email window back every time I want to edit. Still, at least it works! -
Change the action config so that it happens at the end of the page load. It may be that the topic is being locked and then unlocked afterwards by the continuation of the topic creation process.
-
UPDATE: the rule not starting was an issue with ModSecurity in Cpanel. that is fixed. HOWEVER, it seems that if a mod or admin creates a topic, if the rule is to modify that topic in anyway, it wont do it... any idea how to combat that?
-
I'm trying to build rules, but nothing is happening. I created a simple rule to lock any topic created. but i get nothing after creating a topic. no logs, no errors, and nothing locks. any help is greatly appreciated.

Maybe switch the source to something else, save it and switch it back. -
email composition fields not opening in Rules
Bluto replied to liquidfractal's topic in Issue Tracker
I have noticed in the past that the save button stops working for rules I created. I go in to modify them and the save button doesn't do anything. Not sure if this is related or not, but I believe I had to re-create the rule. I can't quite remember. Sorry if this really isn't any help. Hopefully you'll figure it out. -

Works fine for me on 4.4.4. I also save the rule and went back and edited it and that worked too. -
checking for posts in specific forums/categories
Bluto replied to liquidfractal's topic in Knowlegebase
Try this... First create a rule set. First rule: Event: Topic has been created condition: content is in specific forum Select your password protected forum Second rule: Event: Topic Comment has been created condition: content has a particular author Those both evaluated true when I tried with a user on my testing site. You'll probably have to make a separate rule for each client. You can add a separate action rule or add it onto the second rule. This might need more testing, but it appears to work (condition wise). -
For some reason, I am no longer able to either create actions involving sending email or edit existing rules which send email. It was obviously working before, but I've spent an hour trying to troubleshoot this with no luck: The Insert image from URL button doesn't work either - you can add a URL and click the upload button and nothing happens. I thought at first it might have been the occasional problem with the IPS core editor needing a reload or two to appear, but other parts of the suite are working fine. I also tried clearing the cache and even using other browsers, but nothing seems to help.
