SOLVED:{ADS} as $ads parameter in fn_alert_email_daily - from alert_email_daily

[marius-ciclistu]

Hello,
I can't figure out how to change/filter the item title from the <a ........>Item title</a> in the body of the alert_email_daily.

I analyzed the emails.php file but the function fn_alert_email_daily gets $ads as a parameter and I can't figure out the structure of it in order to change/filter the item title.

The reason is that I want to remove the underlines _ from the title, if any.

 I have a function that does that, I only need to know where to call it, and I think that if I know the structure of that $ads parameter, I can write a script that does that.

I gues that it retains the title and url of each ad, but how, with string keys or numeric keys and wich is for title?

I use 3.7.1.

Or, does anyone know from where that $ads parameter is sent by a function call?
 I'm guesing that I can alter the title before it is sent as a parameter.
Thank you.

look at: oc-includes/osclass/alerts.php ~70

Thank you. You are my hero:)
Now, if I have a function that removes the underline _ from the end of the less than 4 characters words, for example "and_" becomes "and" the code should be:

Code: [Select]

$ads .= '<a href="'. osc_item_url_ns($item['pk_i_id']).'">' . removeunderline($item['s_title']) . '</a><br/>';
And it works. Thank you again.

you could use str_replace() there...

Code: [Select]

str_replace("_", " ", $item['s_title']);

this will replace all _ with a blank space

EDIT: I use: $word=chop($word,"_").
I use that in my function. Now I noticed that if I input an email that is in the db of users (without being logged in) and save an alert, I receive an email with a validation link for user.
I let only loged in users to post ads, contact seller etc.

It's strange that that link is not working.

is this happening because of my htaccess file or is it because the details I mentioned above?

Now I'm thinking of removing alerts for unlogged in users.

[marius-ciclistu]

I removed the posibility of unlogged in users to use alerts.
 I don't know if this is a bug or my htaccess messed up that link, but if only logged in users can post  ads/contact seller, it seems normal that unlogged in users should not have access to alerts.

in /oc-content/themes/bender/alert-form.php
I used the function osc_is_web_user_logged_in() to condition the showing of the subscribe alert button.

OBS.
I activated the alert from osclass admin area (the validation link wasn't working as I said before).
The alert did not show in dashboard - alerts page of that email/user. But I did get the email that a new ad was posted according to my alert, on that email.

I noticed something similar if I posted an ad without an account, then if I created an account using the same email, I couldn't see the ad published before I made the account in my user dashboard, unless I edited that ad in osclass admin area and hit save(without changing it in any way). I gues the same issue happened with the alert.
