mc0e / civicrm-extendedmailingstats Goto Github PK

Hi,

So I'm assuming the separate tracking for gmail is about the new tabs and to avoid ending up trapped into the "promotions" tab, or whatever the name of where they put all the mass mailings.

So in that case, it would be great to not only track on %@gmail.com only but do a dns mx and check if it has a ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM. in it, as google apps have the same issues as the gmail ones

I'm trying to install this extension on Civi 4.6.14 running on Wordpress 4.4.2.

I added the extension's files to my Civi extension directory, went to the Civi extension manager and clicked Install. I got this error:

It seems the action is "display". Not sure if it's supposed to be that. On the Civi backend, when I get the error, in the URL itself it says "action=add".

Any idea why this is happening?
Thanks.

note PR #3 has a patch for this

Heh @mc0e, for an alpha extension listed as only 4.2 compatible the fact that it has 18 installations is pretty great. At JMA we've put out the Mandrill Transactional Email extension and now we are working on a Mandrill CiviMail one for 4.4 and 4.5. If you are planning on making this available for 4.4 or 4.5 we'd want to make sure out extension works with it. Do you know if it works in 4.4/4.5, or have any plans to do a new release?

Have also put patch for this in PR #3

I'm interested in using this extension to store mailing stats from an external provider. There are currently a couple of blockers so I wanted to sound you out @MrLavaLava ...

1. prefix name on the table - could we change to civicrm_mailing_stats
2. I would want to add an api / BAO/ DAO for interacting with the table
3. This is probably the tricker one - there are fields in the table we really would much prefer not to have - ie the gmail ones - since we have a large dataset it would be nice for them to be optional. Having said that the number of mailings that go out is only in the low thousands (as opposed to the emails that go out, which is obviously a lot higher - so the space issue might not be so high, so perhaps this is not a big deal
4. The contributions_48hrs_count column name is too prescription. We do want to track contributions_count - but the timeframe would differ, or we would have tracking data
5. I'm thinking to also add something to the standard mailing report page such that it would look up data from this table if some exists (and not calculate aggregates if this shortcut is possible). ie I'm thinking about the per-email report, not a civireport
