Process inter-list dependancies during imports

[chufford]

I found something I consider a bug but it could be by design - what do  you guys think?

I have a list (let's call it "Registered List") that is set to automatically remove a user from a different list ("Demo List") when they subscribe. This is using the "When users are added to this list remove them from the following list(s):" feature. If I do a batch import of users to the registered list, I would expect it to also remove the users from the "Demo" list. However, if the user is already on the Registered list, it is seen as a duplicate and is not added but it then does not check to see if it should be removed from the Demo list.

So for me, I'd like the inter-list dependancies tested whether or not the email address is a duplicate - both for subscribes and for imports.

Is my description clear? Does that make sense? What do you think?

Thanks,
Chris

So it looks like this issue hasn't come up for anyone else. Dean, what do you think? Can you direct me to the location in the code where the import/inter-list dependancies occurs? I'd like to look into reversing the order those actions are performed.

Thanks.

In edituser.php...

Try adding this:

Code: [Select]

if($listopts[2]=='1') remlists($email,$lis,2);
if($listopts[3]=='1') addlists($email,$lis,3);
After the line:

Code: [Select]

$isadupe = 1;
I'll have this in the next update (though, it may not be implemented the same:))

Let me know how you fare - I didn't test this.

That did what I wanted. Thanks.
