CiviCRM Community Forums (archive)

We have one single civicrm (4.4.2) db shared with two sites (drupal 7.23) set up as multisites. Everything works great. We only have one obnoxious issue we don't know how to get rid of. The main install is on www.site1.org (intranet / not public - apache directive to limit its access). We've develop a drupal module on www.site2.org (the internet web site / public) that shares the content of a node with a civi group using civimail api:
$params = array(
    'created_id' => 101,
    'subject' => $subject,
    'name' => $name, // mailing name in CiviCRM
    'body_text' => $body_text,
    'body_html' => $body_html,
    //'header_id'       => 1,
    //'footer_id'       => 19,
    // TODO !! remove duplicates form different groups
    'groups'          => array( // Groups to include & exclude.
        'include' => $groups['include'],
        'exclude' => array(),
    ),
    /*
    'mailings'        => array( // Previous mailings to include & exclude.
        'include' => array(),
        'exclude' => array(),
    ),
    */
  );
 
  try{
    $result = civicrm_api3('mailing', 'create', $params);
    if($result['is_error'] == 0){
      global $base_url;
      //$civi_cron_uri = 'sites/all/modules/civicrm/bin/cron.php?job=process_mailing&name=admin&pass=tilt020406&key=ABCDE1234!';
      $civi_cron_uri = 'civicrm/admin/runjobs?reset=1';
      $civi_cron_link = l('Send immediately', $base_url . '/' . $civi_cron_uri, array('attributes' => array('target' => '_blank')));
      $success_msg = 'CiviMail mailing scheduled (subject = ' . $result['values'][$result['id']]['subject'] .')';
      drupal_set_message($success_msg . ' - ' . $civi_cron_link);
      watchdog('ETUC CiviMail', $success_msg, array(), WATCHDOG_INFO);
    // business rule error
    }else{
      $error_msg = 'CiviMail mailing *not* scheduled (subject = ' . $result['values'][$result['id']]['subject'] .')';
      drupal_set_message($error_msg,'error');
      watchdog('ETUC CiviMail', $error_msg, array(), WATCHDOG_ERROR);
    }

The trouble is that any absolute url (public web site) included in the body is turned into a trackable INTRANET (PRIVATE) url. eg: http://www.site2.org/a/1 becomes http://www.site1.org/sites/all/modules/civicrm/extern/url.php?u=83&qid=70

I tried to use the -swww.site1.org parameter  as recommanded here: http://forum.civicrm.org/index.php?topic=26724.0 and in the wiki without any success.

Tell us more about what the code you shared do. Do you create automatically mailings?

Thx Ellen. I'm definitely interested by the module that allows integrating views in civimail.
