Component body

This module integrates OG 7.x-2.x and Simplenews 7.x-1.x.
It adds several OG admin pages so that a group user with the OG permission 'Administer group newsletters' can create/edit/send newsletters, manage subscribers and configure newsletter settings of his own group(s).

  • Manage group newsletters content (list/edit/send and view status of group newsletters): group/%/%/admin/simplenews
  • Manage group newsletters subscribers:
    • Subscribers list (unsubscribe any subscriber): group/%/%/admin/simplenews/subscribers
    • Mass subscribe (subscribe a list of email addresses to the group newsletter): group/%/%/admin/simplenews/subscribers/import
    • Mass unsubscribe (unsubscribe a list of email addresses from the group newsletter): group/%/%/admin/simplenews/subscribers/unsubscribe
    • Export group newsletter subscribers (email addresses): group/%/%/admin/simplenews/subscribers/export
  • Manage group newsletter configuration: group/%/%/admin/simplenews/settings

Newsletters related to private groups are hidden in subscription lists and in the category field (when creating a Simplenews node) if the current user doesn't have right to view the OG group. Public ones are visible.

Technically, to link a newsletter category/taxonomy and an OG, we use an OG membership reference field on newsletter taxonomy terms that is created during install. The membership type is a new, specific one created during install: "simplenews_og_membership_type".
