Auto Actions: Send E-Mail to user after xx Days without login
krileon
one of my test users has last visit date 2014-11-18 14:01:18...so the action should work, but doesn't
sorry for all these questions, but I'm just really confused with it.
EDIT:
ah now mails are sent, but there's something wrong with my receipients.
none of my field substitutions work there.
i tried both
To:
[cb:userdata field="email" user="#me" /]
[cb:userdata field="email" /]
Text:
Hello [cb:userdata field="username" user="#me" /]
Hello [cb:userdata field="username" /]
...
only my CC receives the emails (without text substitutions)

there were some server delay or something, so the correct emails were sent a few hours later
thanks for your great help!!! works fine now!

Great - glad this is working for you.
If possible can you post a summary of the use case you were trying to solve and the complete solution?
This way other can read and learn.

1. I've configured a CRON which runs every week. URL Internal User found in Community Builder -> Plugins -> CB Auto Actions -> Parameters
2. I've created an Auto Action with:
Global Tab:
Type: E-Mail
Users: Automatic
Custom ACL: Everybody
Trigger: None, Internal Users (don't know if last is really necessary, but this was the last working configuration I tried)
Conditions Tab:
[cb:parse function="time"][lastvisitdate][/cb:parse]
Less or Equal to
[cb:parse function="time" time="-13 DAY"][cb:date format="Y-m-d H:i:s" /][/cb:parse]
Action Tab:
To: [cb:userdata field="email" /] (so the mail is sent to the associated user)
Subject: Whatever you want/need
Body: For "Hello Text" I've used the following substitution:
Hello [cb:userdata field="firstname" /] [cb:userdata field="lastname" /]
Parameters Tab:
Reload User: set to yes
Exclude Users: not needed here
Format Funktions: no
References: not needed here
Debug: temporarily set to yes for testing
with these settings it works for me.
Notes: For testing I changed the lastvisitdate of some users in database (create backup before!) and ran the CRON via URL manually.

Thanks for posting ....
You might want to rethink your conditions so you avoid spamming people that do not login every week. Not sure how you woul ddo this, just posting food for thought comment.
