    Require a flag, have the script set the flag, make the post, then clear
    the flag.. ;)

    I poked together a mod that sends a message via RSS when someone logs
    into the bbs.

    RSS is a "pull" technology, so I'm not really sure what you mean by "sends a message via RSS".

    Err.. rather then it posts to the sub and then is retrieved by RSS. :)



    There's nothing in MsgBase.save_msg() that checks the user user's security level, so I'm confused. What method are you using to try and post to the sub? What's the error, exactly?

    Well I guess it was a bug in my script because it seems to be working
    fine. Must be the drain bamage. SOrry. :o

    Actually it started working, so I guess my script just was doing
    something wrong. PEBKAC. :)

    However, that is a good idea I can use in the script or in general.

    Thanks!
