Hey man...I want that flash file near the top right of the website. Brain storm the functionality for somthing like that and let me know if you can throw it together! I'd love to utilize a feature like that on my site.

Vincent, the component is basically the white Flash Component in the middle. The background and the title are only for preview purposes.

Was wondering what is customizable here?
Thanks

Hi! You can download the preview for free, and check the XML files. Everything is customizable. :-)

New update(1): We fixed a bug where the component was generating an error instead of saving the information in the text file.

Please download the update from your Flabell account.

Hi,

I just purchased this component a while ago and want to thank you for all the quality components you offer.

I have a small question : Could you please send me to a file of yours or anything similar that allows reading the TXT file that saves the emails. So we are able to consult the subscribed emails.

Thank you

In subscribers.txt the emails will be posted one on each line. That's what you needed to know?

Hi,

This is clear for me I've already found it but what I am trying to figure out is : do you have a ready-made flash component that reads these emails and displays them or I will just use loadvar to load them and read them by myself :)

Thanks

What this component does is:

1. Asks the user to add his email address.
2. Validates it.
3. If the address is OK, and if it isn't already in the subscription list, it adds it.

What you do with the list is up to you. Our component is used for sign-up, not for actually sending the newsletter.

there is a way to put a code to send the info to an e-mail inside of the php file? if there is a way... could you guys write me the code... if is not too much to ask!

hey... sure. just add the following snipet after the IF "if(!in_array($email_address,$lines)){" (at line 24)

the php snippet:

                
/* send notification of new subscriber via email */ 
$email_target = '';   // [email protected]

if($email_target != ''){
    $email_from = '"Your site name" <[email protected]>';
    $email_text = 'New newsletter subscriber: '.$email_address;
    $email_subject = 'New subscriber'; 
    
    @mail($email_target,$email_subject,$email_text,
        "From:".$email_from."\r\nContent-type: text/html; charset=us-ascii");
}
/* end of email notification */

This is very helpful. I added to the end of line 24 (after the "{"). Did you mean to add it directly after the "if" (and before the "(if_array")? I did the latter first and it didn't work (e.g. the email address wouldn't even save to the subscriberes.txt).
Also, where do we place the email address of where went want the email notification to be sent?

I cannot get the email forwarding to work.
Can you please show a properly edited php file where the email is forwarding.?
I understand about the line 24.
what I don't understand is where does this go (/* send notification of new subscriber via email */
$email_target = ''; // [email protected]
) ???

Hi,
You should write the code from Vlad after

                fwrite($fw,$email_address.'');

@line 26. newsletter.php should look like:

                
<?php 
// newsletter.php = writes unique email addresses sent via POST one per line into a txt file

$email_address = $_POST['email'];
$subscribers_file = 'subscribers.txt';


if(!isset($email_address) or $email_address == ''){
   die('0'); // email not received or blank
}

$content = '';                                                
// read lines from the file and store them into an array
$content = @file_get_contents($subscribers_file);
$lines = preg_split("/(\r\n|\r|\n)/",$content);

// open file again for writting
$fw = fopen($subscribers_file,'a+');
if($fw == null){
   die('0'); // cannot open file to write
}

// write new email address if not already present
if(!in_array($email_address,$lines))
{
   	fwrite($fw,$email_address.'');

	/* send notification of new subscriber via email */
	$email_target = '';   // [email protected]
	
	if($email_target != ''){
		$email_from = '"Your site name" <[email protected]>';
		$email_text = 'New newsletter subscriber: '.$email_address;
		$email_subject = 'New subscriber';
		 
		@mail($email_target,$email_subject,$email_text,
			"From:".$email_from."\r\nContent-type: text/html; charset=us-ascii");
}
/* end of email notification */

}
else{
   fclose($fw);
   die('0'); // email already exists
}

fclose($fw);
die('1'); // success

?>

It is writing to the txt file. But it won't send it to the address I need it to go.
This are lines 23-42

                
// write new email address if not already present
if(!in_array($email_address,$lines))
{
   fwrite($fw,$email_address.'');

/* send notification of new subscriber via email */
	$email_target = '';   //noreply@.com

	if($email_target != ''){
		$email_from = '"I B S" <noreply@.com>';
		$email_text = 'New newsletter subscriber: '.$email_address;
		$email_subject = 'New subscriber';
		 
		@mail($email_target,$email_subject,$email_text,
			"From:".$email_from."\r\nContent-type: text/html; charset=us-ascii");
}
/* end of email notification */

}

Does the above look correct to you? I took out the domain names on lines 29 & 32 for posting purposes.

You need to have:

                
$email_target = '[email protected]';

I need help setting the newsletter signup form, what are the settings required on the php file.

Thanks
Ernie

Hello. There is no setting. Only make sure you have PHP installed on your server.

ern137

on 21/4/10

you mean to install it to the Mysql?

Andrei Potorac

on 21/4/10

I mean, have a server that supports PHP.

ern137

Hello,

I have downloaded other components from flabell and they work great but this newsletter component does not work at all. I am using it in an html page and it does not save any email to the .txt file and also the .fla file says to get rid of the one layer which makes sense because only the white bar is what matters but when I do that and republish the whole goes blank. Someone! Anyone?

ok, correction. The swf file works and it does save the emails. It just doesn't do it on a computer. It has to be uploaded to server. BUT, it still goes out of wack when I delete the shadow and/or the layer that the file says to delete. I just need the little white bar. Did anyone manage that? just to be clear, I am using this in html.

Thank you much,

Kaweh

Hi. Sure you have to use it on a server. As I said, it needs PHP support.

If you plan to edit the FLA, please install the fonts first.

all the files are on the server and is not working, do i have to create a database for it?

Thanks

Nope, it writes the data in the txt file. Please have a look at the PHP code.
