Hi.
I have everything up and working ok, except the program doesn't seem to be sending e-mails out for passwords - even when I have it so the passwords are immediately set, if the user forgets his/her password, the program says it has sent an e-mail, yet no e-mail is received on the user end. I have tested this with several fake user names and working e-mail addresses, but never get anything in my mailboxes. I've tested this in IE 6, Netscape 7, and Firefox, and get the same (no) results. Anyone have any ideas on what to do about this? |

Do other scripts send out emails correctly? Sending emails is straightforward, nothing fancy. So, I think the problem might be in your php configuration. __________________ Are you looking for an SEO Consultant?

Yes, other scripts that perform e-mail functions in my databases seem to work just fine. With the e-mail scripts in SEO, they appear to work properly, I'm not getting any errors - but the e-mails are not being delivered, either. Where do I look for these scripts in this program? I don't mind the e-mails not working - I can simply replace the info that says an e-mail has been sent - (as in the case of a forgotten password) to "Contact our staff for a new password."
For that matter, our staff wants to control the registration of the forum, not allow just anyone to register....is there a way for me to remove the Register on the viewers pages and move it over to the Admin section - right above Delete User would be ideal. Thanks for your time. fiddler |

The mail sending is done in /code/mailer.php
It uses php's mail function. As far as user registration, check install.php to see the mysql code for adding a new user (be careful with encoding the password). You can hide the register link by editing the /skin/mainguestnavigation.htm file __________________ Are you looking for an SEO Consultant?

I cant send Password eighter. I've done nothing with the mailer.php file, or any other mail-files.
I just wonder: Who deliver the mail. Is it the admin-email? Does the admin-email have to be connected to the sql-host? |

The mail is sent from the admin's email. I dunno if the php function checks if the admin email is valid. Wherever I have installed seo-board, the mail function works. __________________ Are you looking for an SEO Consultant?

Hmm, OK thanks.
mailer.php: Code:
<?php function send_email($email_subject, $email_body, $send_to, $send_from, $errors_to) { mail($send_to, $email_subject, str_replace("\r\n", "\n", $email_body), "From: $send_from\r\nReply-To: $send_from\r\nErrors-To: $errors_to\r\nX-Mailer: PHP ver. ".phpversion()); } ?> Maybe you see something I cant see? For all I know it may be stopped as spam somewhere... |
