Like others before me, I've been using this mod quite a while on previous versions of vBulletin. Since updates and support for older versions had stopped, I figured I would make my own modifications and help others that have enjoyed it as well. I want to add back in some of the previous functionality that has been left out as well as add some new functionality. This mod for the most part picks up where the 3.7.x version leaves off.

What does it do?
=====================================
This mod will send out reminder emails to inactive members to encourage them to come back to your site. This is now only based on member's last activity date.

*** See Updates section below for new feature list per release. ***

IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS OR PROBLEMS WITH THE ADDON, PLEASE LET ME KNOW.

THANK YOU!!

Features
The following features are updatable through the AdminCP.
=====================================
* Turn Product on/off.

* Set the number of days a user can be inactive (grace period) before email is sent.
Example: Inactivity Graceperiod is set for 60 days. On day 61, member Bob will begin receiving reminder emails.

* Send Email Once.
If this is set, when members become inactive they will receive one reminder only.

* Set how often an reminder email is sent after an inactive member has received their first reminder.
Example: Inactivity Grace period is set for 60 days, and Reminder Email frequency is set for 30 days. On day 61, member Bob will receive his first reminder email letting him know he has been inactive for over 60 days asking him to come back to see your new content. If Bob, continues to be inactive, Bob will receive reminder emails based on the number of days you have the email frequency set to. If set to 30 days, members will receive reminders every 30 days after their first reminder.

* Set reminder email format - TEXT or HTML.

* Set the reminder email subject. (phrased)

* Set the reminder email body. (phrased)

* Set the usergroups to be sent a reminder email.

* Set Userids to exclude.

* Edit number of emails send totally (Max Reminders)
Example: If the Send Once option is set to false, and this option is set to 50. Inactive members will only receive 50 reminders.

* Keep a log of all inactive users contacted

* Opt-Out Feature for members - Include an opt-out link in reminder email. (Thanks to Gene Steinberg)
