Ninja There is no reminder, its upto user whether what option he use to choose in the event to go or not.
Email will be sent to as its only for invitation email, you add an email id and it will send email on the specific mail id.
To avoid any misunderstandings:
To avoid any misunderstandings: Someone creates an event in Jomsocial for a group, which is held, for example, on the 1st of every month. And Jomsocial does not remind the group members in time of the upcoming events (no matter if with or without cron)?
By the way: I do not understand what you mean with
"you add an email id and it will send email on the specific mail id."
Ninja Cron Job will work like : U sending an message/email via JomSocial, once cron job run it will trigger these actions and email will be sent.
But that's obviously not true for all messages, is it? Or does someone get a private message from me only when the cronjob finally starts 12 hours later?
Ninja I am not entirely clear on what you added and not working, can you check on the demo site ? and let me know if something working on the demo but not on your site.
As described, you can invite a guest to an event by entering his email address. He does not have to be registered and will receive this email with the invitation. There is no indication in this email what he should do afterwards. He can neither cancel or accept directly in the email, nor is there a hint in the email that he has to register to be able to accept or cancel. This might not work, because the mere registration does not make him a member of the group and therefore he still cannot react to the received email even after registration.
Finally, for the reasons mentioned above, the currently implemented option to invite guests to a non-public group event by simply entering an email address is completely absurd.
There are a few basic features and functions that generally must be considered in event management. One of these is that potential participants must be automatically reminded of recurring events by the system with a lead time. If this is not the case, the inviting party would never need to create a recurring event because he would then have to monitor this sequence of appointments himself in order to have to manually ask the group members each time whether or not you are participating.
And it also does not correspond to the software-ergonomic principle of expectation conformity if, on the one hand, you can invite guests to a non-public event of a closed group by simply entering their email addresses, and then the invited person receive an email with which they can do absolutely nothing.
Kind regards
