Deleting unscheduled/draft emails should return user to unscheduled/draft list?
December 16, 2008, 02:35:35 pm
Just wondering if other users would agree that having deleted a 'unscheduled/draft' civimail the next page should continue to be the unscheduled/draft page.

Also wonder if having an option to view 'all emails' would be useful. So users can see scheduled and sent on same window.

First point sounds like a (minor) bug ("context" is not set properly so redirect is wrong). I've added it to our "Issues Noticed (minor fixes for 2.2) List".

Not sure about 2nd point. Seems like we separated these out after requests to do so ??? Don't most Email clients separate drafts from sent mail?

Thanks for bug fix.

maybe solution for b/ is to offer a 'All civiMail' option in the menu?

Sometimes I need to dive in to see what is going amiss and it is not always clear if I am tidying up a draft or real one. Probably makes more sense in 2.1 given that one can 'save' where as with 2.0 it wasn't the case.

Also noticed that on 2.0 /civicrm/mailing?reset=1 comes up saying "Browse Mailings (Scheduled and Sent)" when it does include the unscheduled ones too. not sure what happens on 2.1

oh i see that 'civimail' goes to index.php?q=civicrm/mailing&reset=1 which really is 'scheduled and sent'

so perhaps I just need to train users to then go looking on the menu for drafts and unscheduled ones

In v2.1

1. By default when you click on CiviMail, it goes to "Scheduled and Sent mailings" and we have also separate link for "Scheduled and Sent mailings".

2. For Unscheduled Mailings, (i.e. Drafted or incomplete) you need to click menu link "Draft and Unscheduled Mailings".

You can check this on http://drupal.demo.civicrm.org/civicrm/mailing?reset=1

Also it would be great if you can verify fix for: http://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-3834 on

thanks,
