Discussion & Troubleshooting / Re: Bounced emails

« on: April 21, 2005, 04:01:27 AM »

V@no thanks for your reply. I'm getting the following error:

Parse error: parse error, unexpected ',' in /home/filipina/public_html/4images/includes/email.php on line 172

I found the code with no problem and all I did was copy and paste the code from your post to  replace it with. Uploaded, sent an email and the above error is what I get. Did it several times to be srue I was getting your code right, but got the error each time.

I know it probably is something simple, but my lack of PHP knowledge has me sratching my head.

Vano...I did what you asked....I think??????? Sent you an email from my 4 images. I also created a php file to check the phpinfo. Once I got the phpinfo I had no idea what to look for. It was a lot of information that was greek to me.

Chris,mention he had this problem also.  I need it to be  more specific to know what to look  for and what I should say specifically to my host to fix it. That may sound like asking for too much details, but believe me everytime I call Ipower, I never get anywhere unless I'm specific. I called them today concerning this problem and  the tech I talked to didn't seem to have a glue, so I need to be more specific if I'm going to get them to help me.

Thanks for everyones effort.

Nicky...is there a solution? I called my server and I can't use the SMTP function because they will not turn it on because of the security risk. With the PHP mail, why do I get a reply concerning bounced mail with other pHP programs and not with 4images? Is it a bug in 4images?  I'd appreciate your feedback.

Discussion & Troubleshooting / Bounced emails

« on: April 20, 2005, 03:58:43 PM »

Hi All.

I asked this question before the hack and I did get an answer, but the reply so above my head that I wasn't sure of a solution. Part of the problem may of been I didn't word my problem well. Here goes.

I use 4images to send out newsletters to my members. The problem is, if the email address is invalid or not good, I do not get a bounced email reply. For me, getting this reply is valuable since it tells me if an email is valid or not.

It was easy enough to test, I simply created a user in 4 images with a bogus email (something like xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxfafafafa444@hotmail.com) and sent it. Also I sent emails to members whose email bounced in other mail servers so I know they were invalid.

At first I thought maybe this is a php problem. However, I downloaded other php programs that had mail functions and they would report a bounced email. It is inconvience to use another program for my newsletter since I would have to keep 2 programs upated -- both 4 images and the other php program.

I'm back to using 4 images as my newsletter program...it sends out emails find, but still not getting that  email telling me if an email bounces. This is important. What I was doing, if I got 3 bounced emails from a member, I called to inquire about a valid email. Without 4 images telling me if an email bounces, I lose this function. Also, if I could not resolve the bounce email issue, I eventually delted the user from 4 images.

Hopefully I explained my problem well enough to ask the following:  Why doesn't 4 images report a bounced email? Is it something to do wth my server? If it is my server, why does  other php programs report a bounce email and not 4 images?

Any help or advise would be appreciated.

thanks in advance for your reply.

Discussion & Troubleshooting / Pictures in HTML pages

« on: March 28, 2005, 06:26:24 AM »

I think before the hacker struck, there was a mod so you could put random pictures in a HTML file. My search found discussions that referred to links to this mod, but they were links before the hack so I get a 404.  Does anyone know if this mod still exist and where? I can't seem to find it if it is still on the forum. Thanks for any help in advance.

Thanks

No chris I wasn't that person....I think we are on the same track. I add all my members from the admin control panel which doesn't send a email to the person like it does when you register from 4images home page. Do you know mod....I'll check google's cache and see if I find the one you suggested.

Mods & Plugins (Requests & Discussions) / Letter sent to new user

« on: March 14, 2005, 07:42:08 PM »

Hi

I run a paid website. Only members have certain privileges when using 4images gallery. My method is to enter the new members myself and assign them a password and username and their permisssions. It gives me more  control.

I thought that when I added a new user to 4images they got an email automatically telling them they were approved and what their password and username was. But a few simple tests of creating dummy members and adding them, I got no such letter sent to me.

My questions are:

(1) Is this a function of 4images and in my case it is not working properly? If so, where do I fix it?

or

(2) If it is not a function, could someone please show me the code to add this mod so when I add a new user myself they get an email telling them their username and password ? If the mod does  exist, sorry I couldn't find it.

It would be a great time saver.

Thanks in advance for your help

steve.

Mods & Plugins (Requests & Discussions) / Extra Picture Mod or could I include

« on: March 10, 2005, 03:44:54 PM »

Hi. I know this subject has been discussed several times. However, I don't think there has been a solution to it. I have seen replies or suggestions, but the suggestions were over my head. Hopefully I explain this well and someone can point me in the right direction.

4images is a great gallery. One feature that it lacks is the ability to show more than one image for the same owner/user when you are in the description.

In other words, when you click on the thumbnail and the picture enlarges, it would be nice to see in the description of the enlarged picture more thumbnails if the owner has more pictures to display. I'm not sure, but I believe this area with the larger picture and description is called the details page.

I have been looking at other php scripts that are php viewers for photos.

Can I use the include command for this viewer script in the details.html ---  Is details.html the right template to use to display another php script that shows thumbnails for extra pictures when you look at the picture description? This viewer script that I would include shows the thumbnails and when clicked a pop up of a larger image is displayed. But again, I'm not sure which template is appropriate to use for this include command. Any help or advise would be appreciated.

As a side note: glad you are back and I like the new forum look. Where is the donation button? I would glady donate to this forum from my paypal account. You guys do a great job.

Steve.
