    Is there any way for a top-level Admin to send an e-mail to all members of the forum, either in the control panel or by pulling a list of addresses and mailing manually? We have some big news in my forum, and I'd like to get a hold of members who haven't visited in a while, but I can't figure out how to do it.

    Thanks!

    The function is not there at the moment, but I second the idea. it woul dbe most useful as an extension.

    kaufman...hmm...name rings a bell..were you an o8er?

    In any case, if you need to do it urgently we can provide you with a database query. It shouldnt be such a difficult extension to write though. I think it's been discussed before.

    it has indeed, several times. We're all hoping Mark will include it as a core feature for the next rev. That way, none of us have to make it as an extension.

    Yay! In the meantime, if anyone has a spare moment to help with an SQL query, that would be great. I have a publication coming out today (on ChangeThis) that warrants an e-mail to forum members.

    @ minisweeper - I run personalmba.com, so you may know me from that.

    I really need to do this even if just for my own purposes, but I haven't had time to do it yet. And when people on here started talking to me a lot about something else, I decided to start working on that something else instead, and it's almost finished, and it's really swell.

    Is it a robot badger? That would be swell.

    If not, then I'll settle for something else from lussumo.
