[WICENS] WAN IP Change Email Notification Script

[aru]

I really like this useful tool. It can automatically notify me about changes in the router's status, allowing me to check my email on my phone without having to log in to the router. Recently, I upgraded to version 4.0 and reinstalled it. I encountered the following error message when trying to use the backup function. Is this expected behavior?

If you're using amtm email settings this is expected, it doesn't back up your amtm email settings, the script dynamically syncs with amtm everytime its run

edit: to clarify the script will only backup passwords saved by configuring email settings in wicens (not amtm import). All saved passwords are removed (aside from backups) when amtm import is enabled and the script does not backup your amtm email settings. Ive changed the wording around this in the backup for the next release.

4.01 out to correct multiple notifications on reboot and some appearance

## 4.01
* CHANGED: prevent cron execution if router up less than 10 mins
* CHANGED: F_getrealip don't sleep if grabbing WAN IP for the first time
* CHANGED: misc wording for when new fw version found and password backup (not backed up when amtm enabled)

The backup instructions for the new version are very easy to understand.

Additionally, I want to commend your script for being one of the few that displays the change log during the installation process. This thoughtful design saves users the time and effort of independently searching to understand the differences in the new version. Thank you!

Thanks!! Great update and nice messages too.

Just a minor point the version is still showing 4.00 after the 4.01 update?

Another minor comment is it’s a bit confusing where it says “create a backup before upgrading?”, there’s no (y or n) prompt and even if I try answer (n) it doesn’t continue, I can only answer (c) continue. I did not try y.

The issue with the versioning I caught not long after the initial commit, its been fixed you may have an md5 update available. https://github.com/maverickcdn/wicens/commit/2c12d4ca7648070d14088027a90926fccc85b52a

I've changed the wording around this for the next one, its meant to read as a warning to back out and create a backup from the main menu, not from within the script update menu

Got an email tonight saying
Script ran with option : reboot
But.. I wasn't logged in to run any script, and an unsure of why there would be an unexpected reboot..

Any log that'll help me?

Thanks
