I already have use it on 5.X with success.

Seems you load the bad config here ? 1st time i see this , and surely not limited to sendMailCron.
You load your config.php dynamically ?

Can you test

cd /usr/local/lsws/DEFAULT/html/www/survey/
php application/commands/console.php plugin index --target=sendMailCron sendMailCronSimulate=1

Helloo..
Can Limesurvey version 5 be used?
I have successfully installed in LS Version 5.3.22, but when conducting trials the error appeared below attachment.

php survey/application/commands/console.php plugin index --target=sendMailCron sendMailCronSimulate=1
CDbException: CDbConnection failed to open the DB connection. in /usr/local/lsws/DEFAULT/html/www/survey/framework/db/CDbConnection.php:405

Deactivate globally (global plugin settings : https://extensions.sondages.pro/mailing-management/sendmailcron/documentation.html#The-plugin-settings) and activate by plugin.

Or use a specific moment https://extensions.sondages.pro/mailing-management/sendmailcron/documentation.html#Usage-of-moment (seems the easiest currently)

Hi, I didn't understand however how to send only the invitations of a specific survey if I put the command in the cron.
What settings should I use?

Issue in last version of LimeSurvey

php yourlimesurveydir/application/commands/console.php plugin index --target=sendMailCron sendMailCronSimulate=1

I don't know when it's broken, but it work with 4.1.18 and 3.6

OK, I see, I tried the cron fro LS v.4, but I have to use this page:
https://gitlab.com/SondagesPro/mailing/sendMailCron/-/tree/LS3api
with this structure:
php yourlimesurveydir/application/commands/console.php plugin cron sendMailCronSimulate=1

Thanks anyway, Chris

Hi,
I just tried to test the plugin as suggested here:
https://gitlab.com/SondagesPro/mailing/sendMailCron

php yourlimesurveydir/application/commands/console.php plugin --target=sendMailCron sendMailCronSimulate=1

which results in an error message:
Error: Unknown options: sendMailCronSimulate

LimeSurvey Version 3.27.35+220208

should I use something like this?
— option=sendMailCronSimulate=1

Thanks in advance, Chris

You have plugin settings by survey

Is it possible to use the functionality of this plugin only on certain surveys or is something that has to be activated globally?
Thank you in advance.

I see your feature request on mantis.

I think we can use https://gitlab.com/SondagesPro/mailing/eventBeforeTokenEmailExtended/-/blob/master/eventBeforeTokenEmailExtended.php plugin to create a new plugin.

But : «Administrator email address, we often have cases where the invitations and reminders are sent from an organizational email address» where you see this settings ?

Why not use the Administrator email adress (updatable) for the final needed organizational email address ?

Do you think it would be possible to add a feature to sendMailCron to allow one to specify a global sending email address (that could then also be overridden at the survey configuration level)?

While LS (and this your plugin) uses the Administrator email address, we often have cases where the invitations and reminders are sent from an organizational email address that is different from the survey administrator's address.

Can you create the issue at gitlab please ?

I can start the update (need a config.xml file) : and if you can test and confirm it work : it can be great.

Yes, surely, but

1. i wait for 3.0 stabilization , currently we can not update a 2.72 to 3.0 for example
2. And it's surely a new major version (have a 2+3 compatible version for any plugin is more complex see bug1 and bug2.
