Hi,
Am trying to work with the newsletter module (latest trunk), but am a bit confused about the member type that should be used with it - and if I should use any since the newsletter module contains its own member type (newsletter/code/NewsletterRole.php). I added DataObject::add_extension('Member', 'NewsletterRole'); to mysite/_config.php but am not sure if that is the right thing to do.
Another thing is that I do not understand exactly the dropdown menu in the Newsletter Settings page that says: 'Maling list Group'. I can add administrators or I can add any of the other groups that I create under the securtiy panel. I first thought this was the group of recipients but right now I am no longer sure about that. (there is nothing in the documentation about it, I suspect that it has to do with who may or may not administer the newsletters, is that correct?)
If someone has a complete working example of a newsletter install it would be very much appreciated since documentation is absolutely not clear at all and I still have lots of other questions. For instance: Do I or do I not need the userforms? I installed them but am not sure why exactly since I already have a newsletter subscription page type. Etc.
This is a rather confusing post, but it reflects the confusion that I am in, sorry :-(
