Thank you for your great answers, I hope all of this helps others try/use this extension... Most the answers don't come as a shock only confirmation of a few things I was unsure about. Ok, so I got it partly working as desired ...(I think) It seems to be mailing the user administrators of changes but not the user node I selected though...and not the users I manually have added to the list while editing / updating an article. <i>> I cleared all caches and edited an article object, but while I saw the new personlist attribute, I didn't see any users (from the group I selected) in the available list... should I have?</i> <i>>>You should have users in the drop select box. there you should be able to select one or more at the same time</i>
Sorry, I can't seem to get any list of users into that select list/box... I'm wondering just what steps are a dependency for this part of it's usage... <i>> or more specifically how can I email all the already registered users without having to add them all by hand?</i> <i>>>I use a dummy object for that kind of actions with an override template which lists a nice table to copy paste into an email client for bulk emails.</i> Can you elaborate on your last point? Is this a custom solution not in the extension? If this is something you have created that is not in the extension, would you consider adding it? I'm not entirely clear on what you mean by using a dummy object/template list... I see a table for selecting users in the edit screen of an article, around the notification list the 'Internal notification list' multi option list and the 'External notification list' user list .. I have selected the 'E-mail this person' for a user that I have added successfully/manually to the top notification table list but the user doesn't seem to get any makes but the admin user (same email server as manually added user) does get the mails. I keep thinking that the 'Internal notification list' would display all the users in the user group / node I selected in the datatype attribute editing of the class :? Again, I am trying to use the module because I thought I could use it to email existing registered users of updated/ new content...without having to build/maintain another list of users.
