Messaging System Mods - Brandin - 06-28-2017

Hello!

I made a few changes to the Messaging System I hope you like. As I change it I will post updates.

Please include Jwerty to handle the shortcuts I included:
https://github.com/keithamus/jwerty

Code:
message.php

https://hastebin.com/ikewopizar.xml

Code:
messages.php

https://hastebin.com/ayulakuqol.xml

And your custom function additions:
https://hastebin.com/gucezulubo.php

Alter your table to have a archive_from and archive_to:
https://hastebin.com/wofomizeci.sql

Code:
fetchMessageUsers

lets you define exclusions for users - I have user ID 1 and 30 (default sysadmin and Guest User in my system). You can remove these by editing the function or what have you.

Code:
archiveThreads

lets you mark the archive in threads, allows allows unarchive. Value of 0 is unarchived, value of 1 is archived.

Code:
messageUser

lets you send a System Message to a user, for example through an automated script or such, you can integrate it however you want.

Enjoy!

Furthermore:
You will need to add this file as

Code:
combobox.js

and make sure you modify the call on

Code:
messages.php

appropriately:
https://hastebin.com/jumexofaqu.js

I modified the page to be more container-like, comparable to the other UC pages.

I changed the view to have the Create Message in a Modal instead of its own page, and it uses ComboBox (as above). Anyone with Level 2 access (what I call System Administrator or the default admin level) can send a mass message (currently sends to all users in the fetchMessageUsers function - including yourself).

You can archive and unarchive threads. If there are no threads archived, the "View Unarchived Threads" link disappears.

The

Code:
message.php

page has a "Read" and "Delivered" function for messages you send. You can use the quick reply and the modal for advanced reply.

Here are some screenshots showing the changes.

nice job ?? any reason for not using bootstraps own modal ?

Messaging System Mods - Brandin - 06-29-2017

I thought I did use the Bootstrap Modals? Maybe I didn't lol - I never used any plugins for the modals, the JS plugins are for different events such as keystroke firing and ESC features and what not.

Messaging System Mods - firestorm - 06-29-2017

my bad lol ?

will have a look at this on a vanilla build and consider implementing into my build.
is there any option to delete archived messages ?

Messaging System Mods - Brandin - 06-29-2017

Not yet - this was a quick deploy on my system because I needed it done ASAP, that is my next step... Big Grin

Messaging System Mods - mudmin - 06-29-2017

Awesome. Thanks for this. I have these on my tracking spreadsheet. If you do tinker with that modal, let me know and I will add that too. Camp ends for me July 26, so I'm counting down to getting back to developing.

Brandin,
What do you mean by "system message?" When I hear that, I think of windows pop-up dialogues from the sysadmin sending the domain usesrs a mass message that they are going to do something to the LAN connectivity.

I just integrated an email alert using the php mail function that sends a quick email to the member who is receiving a message on the site.

I'm going to check out your archive function. Thanks for sharing.

Messaging System Mods - Brandin - 07-03-2017

I use the system message to send messages (like you would emails) for different purposes within the code, e.g. I have a request system, so instead of emailing the person or manually sending a message.

Messaging System Mods - firestorm - 07-03-2017

i love the idea of email notification when a user gets a message preferably user selectable, i.e a user can choose to receive notifications.
