Hello

These are my settings:

XOOPS Version:
XOOPS 2.2.4

XOOPS Template Set:
default

PHP Version:
4.4.2

MySQL Version:
4.0.26-standard

Server Software:
Apache

And I have been searching for a solution which would trigger an email notification upon reciept of a private message from another member and I understand that there is a hack available from smartfactory but to my understanding it only works for 2.0.X; nonetheless I tried it on my version, which as you may have noticed is 2.2.4 and nothing happened. I compared the original and hacked version of files and I noticed the following line in /modules/pm/english/main.php:

define("_PM_MAILMESSAGE","Hello!\nA New PM has arrived from %s\n\nTitle of PM is\n%s\n\nYou can view the PM here\n%s\n\n-----------\nYou are receiving this message because you selected to be notified when you receive a new PM\n\nYou can change your PM-Config\n%s\n\nPlease do not reply to this message\n\n---------\nBest Regards\n%s\n%s\n%s");

Now I do not know anything about programming but it seems as if it has been defined in at least to the extent of language file but my question is whether the feature is fully functional in 2.2.4 and is not working only for my configuration or it is something yet to be implemented?

Also, could you please also advise me how can I remove those blue borders around my forum icons?

Thanks and regards

In order for the email notification feature to work, one must allow email from the site in their profile. I did not think mine was working until I checked my profile and reset it. But I am running 2.2.3 and it works.

Thanks for the reply

I have checked my settings and tested to see whether it works but it does not I got no email notification of pm

These are my settings:

Email notices: YES

Notification method: EMAIL (USE ADDRESS IN PROFILE)

Default notification mode: NOTIFY ME OF ALL SELECTED UPDATES

Hmm, I am mystified by that. You might try reinstalling the pm module, or updating it. Mine did not seem to work for a while and I did that, and it started functioning. Other than that, I am at a loss.

thanks for your kind reply

i have tried both upgrade and fresh installation of pm module but result is the same: it is not working

i would be very grateful for any help on the matter

thanks and regards

The only other thing I can think of is check and make sure you have the mail set up right. Preferences:System:Mail Setup Your server may be different, but mine is setup as follows:

Mail Delivery Method: PHP Mail
Path to Send Mail: /usr/sbin/sendmail

The rest is blank.

One more thing, you may need to use the hack mentioned in:

hmmm..

yea checked php mail setting with those of web host and there are no apparent discrepencies between them as such yet the notification system not working

it is really disappointing as i am unable to see why those who know and understand the bits has not offered any help/hint to solve/answer my issue/question?

ok forget the original question. can someone please advise that why did i not get any help here on forums? is it because my site does not bear XOOPS link? and is in the so called violation of CCL or it is just because my quetion is rather absurd and i am overlooking some very basic thing?

thanks and regards

I, at least tried. )-:
