Email notification on upload

[aja]

I do not get an admin email when another person uploads a photo. What do I need to do.

Thanks

Hello,

make "Notify by email upon user upload" to Yes

[aja]

I've done that.........
Even tried several different addresses, still does not work.

Hello and welcome to 4images forum.
Can you send emails via 4images at all? (you can try do it via ACP (Admin Control Panel) -> Send Email)

P.S.
Some hosts don't allow sending emails via PHP, so you'll need use a SMTP server for that.

I can send email thru the ACP fine

[V@no]

Just to be clear, you CAN send emails via ACP and you DO receive them?

[aja]

That's correct..........

There is another "undocumented" fact that has to be in account: the email notification upon upload only works when no direct upload is allowed and admin must validate the uploaded images.

The "direct upload" can be configured for each category (ACP -> Edit Categories -> Edit -> Direct Upload)

If you don't like that and want receive emails for "direct upload" images, open member.php, find:
      if ($config['upload_notify'] == 1 && !$direct_upload) {

Replace with:
      if ($config['upload_notify'] == 1) {

Find:
        $validation_url = $script_url."/admin/index.php?goto=".urlencode("validateimages.php?action=validateimages");


Replace with:
        if ($direct_upload)
        {
          $validation_url = $script_url."/details.php?image_id=".$image_id;
        }
        else
        {
          $validation_url = $script_url."/admin/index.php?goto=".urlencode("validateimages.php?action=validateimages");
        }

Aha,I thought it would occur either way, that's my problem. Thanks for the help.
