Messaging & Profile plugin V2.6 released

Some new features and bug fixes have been added to V2.6 which we have released now. Details of the changes can be found in the version history tab of the plugin page.

One important new feature is the ability to display user data in user lists in more flexible ways. This can include data stored in custom fields populated by the new HTML editor field available in Sitelok V6.8 and above.

It is also possible to layout and style the user data in the list using a Sitelok email template. This allows fields to be positioned and styled as needed. This is great for a member or company directory for example.

One of our clients has a great example of a user list in action on yogateacherstogether.org. Yoga teachers register with the site to be listed in the searchable directory. Notice that the list shows some basic information (certain Sitelok fields) and Read More links to the profile page with further details. Here is how their searchable list looks (try it out using the link above).

Sitelok V6.8 released

I discovered a serious bug in the email file manager V6.7 which could cause email templates to get deleted when renaming them. V6.8 fixes this.

If you have already updated to V6.7 please don't use the file manager and update to V6.8 as soon as possible.

Sitelok V6.7 released

Sitelok V6.7 has been released with some new features, bug fixes and tweaks.

HTML Editor fields

Registration, update profile and contact forms now have an HTML editor field available. This can be either a basic editor or a full editor depending on what you need.

Full HTML editor
Users can use these fields to send you formatted data which you can access in the dashboard. The HTML can also be displayed on the members page as well. Normally custom fields are displayed using

<?php echo $slcustom1_html; ?>;

which would display any the HTML as text on the page. When using an HTML editor you would use the raw data variable instead so that it displays the data as formatted HTML.

<?php echo $slcustom1; ?>

Sitelok uses secure XSS protection for data entered via HTML editor fields.

Numerical sort

Custom Fields on the main dashboard table can be set to sort numerically instead of the default text based sort.

New Sendy plugin for Sitelok

Sendy (https://sendy.co/) is a third party email marketing app that is self hosted so has no subscription or monthly fees. You just pay for the email sent via Amazon SES (around $1 for 10,000 emails).

The Sendy Plugin for Sitelok allows users added to Sitelok (via registration, payment or other ways) to be added to Sendy mailing lists. You can add users to lists based on their usergroups or add all users to one one list, depending on your requirements. When users are added to a new usergroup later on they will be added to any assigned list as required too, keeping users in synch. There are also options to remove users from lists when they are removed from usergroups too.
