I am hoping somebody can help me out. I have my site set to open submissions. I am using the 'invalidate' mod by jrabbit and I only use the acceptance/rejection letter if I have to invalidate a story for some reason. Is there a way that when an admin sends the rejection/acceptance letter that it could also be sent to an admin e-mail too? It would be fine if it just went to all the admins that are listed on the site or if I can just add in a specific e-mail.
My signature has my basic site info. I haven't upgraded to 3.2.1 yet but will be doing that later tonight or tomorrow. So hopefully it will be something that works regardless of 3.2 or 3.2.1.

Wow, that's a good idea. That way, the other admins would know that a story was checked and WHY a story was rejected.
Whoever said nothing is impossible never tried slamming a revolving door.

I would love that. I know sometimes I can't even remember a story that I validated/rejected so when an author wants to ask about it I'm like "Um..." 😆
Just thought of another good reason...it would make it easier to know that the rejection/acceptance letter actually got sent.
Anybody know how this can be done? I imagine it can't be that complicated.

I tried to do that to keep track of moderation - though I'm not using this method right now.
Anyway, you should do something like this:
Open admin/yesletter.php
after line 37 ( $result = sendemail($_POST['authorname'], $_POST['authoremail'], $adminname, $ademail, $subject, $letter, "html");) add:
$result2 = sendemail($adminname, "email@email.com", $adminname, $ademail, $subject, $letter, "html");
Where "email@email.com" is the email you want to send the copy of the email to. (This is for just a specific email address - you can use $siteemail if you want it to be the official email address of your site. To send copies of the email to every admin would be a little more complex.)

I'll try this out when I get a chance. Modding the yes/no letters has been on my list of things to do, because we run a moderated-submission site and always send out a letter either way. We have a Yahoo group for the mods where we post the letters so we can all see what's going on, and lately have been copy-pasting it to the group. This should help us out tremendously!
I tried it and unless I just suck it didn't work. I just add the line below line 27 and changed the e-mail to my address. I even tried a few different e-mails and the $siteemail. No luck.

I would think you'd have to mod the e-mail form... 😐
Hmm... I just did this mod and it's sending to our Yahoo Group beautifully. I'm on 3.2.1 and use Firefox if that helps anyone who might try to figure it out.
Saturn, did you really put it after 27 or is that typo? It goes after 37.
You can also change the email form to display different things, though I haven't tried getting it to send to multiple addresses that way. I've got it including the story and chapter title in the subject line and display the authoremail, stuff like that.
That was a typo. I put it on the line after 37. I only tried it on the noletter.php. I ssumed it would be the same for each one. I'll try again after I upgrade to 3.2.1.

No, you have to modify only yesletter.php (and it will work for both) 🙂 Sorry, I forgot to say it in the last post; this is because even if noletter.php includes all the instruction to send the email, its form point to yesletter.php and uses its script. Just have a look at line 59: you'll see from
action="admin.php?action=yesletter&uid=".$story['uid']."&chapid=".$_GET['chapid'].""
that the form points to the 'yesletter' panel. Perhaps this is something that should be corrected (let's say, a minor bug?), but I advice you not to change anything in noletter.php and just modify yesletter.php.

That's what I get for thinking. 🙂
I'll mod the yesletter and see how that works. Thanks.

You know you could have just turned logging on and set the admin log to be viewable by admin level 3 instead of 1.
