SMF1.1:News and newsletters/es

Languages	English  · español

Please see SMF1.1:News and newsletters or SMF2.0:News and newsletters depending on the version of SMF you are using.

La sección de "Noticias y Boletines" está situada en "Admin > Principal > Noticias y Boletines". Los administradores pueden permitir a otros Grupos de Usuarios (en) el acceso a estas características a través de los Ajustes.

Noticias

This feature enables you to display short news items in a prominent position on your forum. You can use BBCode (en) to format these messages. When SMF is first installed, there will be one news item: "SMF - Just Installed". Type your own message in this box and then click the Save button. To add further news items, use the link Click here to add another item. A news item can be removed by selecting the checkbox next to it, followed by clicking on the Remove selected button.

It is possible to configure how and where the news items are displayed on your forum. This configuration has to be done in the theme settings (en) for each theme that you have installed. The following options are available:

• Enable News? - When this option is enabled, a news item is shown randomly in the forum header (en) each time you refresh the page or navigate through the forum.
• Show news fader on board index - This displays a collapsible news box at the top of the board index (en). News items are shown here one at a time with a fading effect between each one.
• Fading delay between items for the news fader - This sets how long each news item is displayed before the next item is shown in the news fader. The time is set in milliseconds.

Newsletters

If you need to contact some, or all, members of the forum this feature can be used to send a simple e-mail (newsletter).

Membergroup Selection

First of all, check the boxes next to the membergroups that you would like to e-mail. If you would like to send a newsletter to users in a particular post count group (en), you need to enable permissions for post count groups in Admin > Permissions > Settings > Enable permissions for post count based groups.

E-mail Options

• Send the messages using personal messages - With this option checked, members will receive the newsletter as a personal message rather than by e-mail.
• Send this to members even if they have chosen not to receive announcements - When this is selected, the e-mail is sent to members even if they have have opted not to receive announcements by e-mail in their profile (Profile > Modify Profile > Profile). It is not recommended to force members to receive announcements unless the news item is really important.

Composing e-mail

• Subject - The default subject is: "Site name: Subject".
• Message - You can enter almost anything you want in the message box, including HTML. Most e-mail clients support HTML, but not all of them do. If you want to use HTML in the newsletter, you must select the option Send in HTML format (see below).

Certain variables can be used in the email:

• {$board_url} - The URL to your forum.
• {$current_time} - The current time.
• {$member.email} - The current member's email.
• {$member.link} - The current member's link.
• {$member.id} - The current member's ID.
• {$member.name} - The current member's name.
• {$latest_member.link} - The most recently registered member's link.
• {$latest_member.id} - The most recently registered member's id.
• {$latest_member.name} - The most recently registered member's name.

Settings

The Settings page of the News and newsletters section of the Administration Center allows an administrator to configure a few settings pertaining to forum news items and newsletters.

• Groups allowed to edit news items - Select the groups that you wish to allow the ability to add and edit news items.
• Groups allowed to send out forum newsletters - Select the groups that you wish to allow the ability to send newsletters.
• Enable XML/RSS news - Allows people to link to the RSS feeds of recent posts made on your forum and other similar data. For details see the {{llink|XML feeds|text=XML feeds]] page.
• Maximum post length - Here you can specify the maximum amount of characters to show for each RSS feed item. It is also recommended that you limit the size of recent posts and news because in some clients the amount of RSS data that is displayed is expected to be truncated.
