I have a client who needs a way to pass messages amongst users. I found an old message in the forums which referenced an RFE which is incomplete. Does anyone know if there has been any work in this area? Looking at the Inbox asset docs, it looks like I could potentially develop an asset around it that would call the addMessage() method to push a message into a user's inbox. Is anyone doing something along these lines already?
Thanks, |

For future reference, we found a way to do this. We created a custom form in a snippet and turned off caching. In this form, we added hidden fields for to and sentBy. To is populated by the url param and sentBy is populated using the userId macro. This snippet posts to a DataForm we created. The DataForm emails the intended user. There are more details and we ran into some issues with the inbox object but it looks like those issues are almost resolved. Diona ---- |

This is built in to WebGUI in 7.4. It's a private message function, that allows you to send a user a message from their profile screen. In 7.5 there will be a new friends system added, that will allow you to arbitrarily send messages to anyone you've added to your friends list. The code is already done, just waiting for 7.5 dev to begin to add it. |
