We’ve released today the RSTickets!Pro revision 5 with some important features to enhance the component and the cron functionalities.
Among them, a new tab in backend - “Cron Email Parser Log”, 2 knowledgebase modules - “Most Read Articles” & “Latest articles” and some SQL improvements.
1. The Cron Email Parser activity log
The Cron Email Parser Plugin extends the RSTickets!Pro functionality by generating tickets from emails.
Starting with rev. 5, we’ve created a new tab - “Cron Email Parser Log” to keep track of the email activity registered when using the ticket system.
