Re: zem_contact_reborn 4.0.3.20
Well, I am not receiving the email from the form.
I can fill out the form, submit, and get the thank you note. I have even copied the same form code from another working site (4.0.5) to be safe.
As I remember correctly, you can have it work properly when working on a local server right?

Re: zem_contact_reborn 4.0.3.20
I could be wrong. I’m testing a local version of another site and it’s not kicking me emails.

You need a properly working mail server on your local setup.

Re: zem_contact_reborn 4.0.3.20
Put the following in a file called mail.php, upload it to your webserver, then visit it with your browser. You should receive an email. If not, your mail server is not functioning properly and that’s outside the scope of this topic. None of the letters in MAMP are related to a mail server ;)

Re: zem_contact_reborn 4.0.3.20
Is there a way to hide checkbox or radio btn values in the email that gets sent if they are not checked/selected?

Not without hacking plugin code.

Re: zem_contact_reborn 4.0.3.20
Download links are working again.
I was busy upgrading the server from Debian sarge to etch and had that didn’t go as well as I had hoped. Some interesting things I noticed. Suphp now has a config file where one can specify the docroot. Since I’m running the webserver with a modified docroot, that was an important setting. And apparently, apache1.3+php now requires a lot more memory. Had to increase the memory limit for apache processes by at least 50 percent.

Not quite sure, but I think only the Pro version has a working email server.

Re: zem_contact_reborn 4.0.3.20
I have a txp install running on a windows server and no emails are working. I showed the tech support the FAQ about improperly configured php on windows servers. They got back to me with this…
… In order not to share these limits
with other customers on your server you should insert the following
string before php mail() function in your form:
ini_set(‘sendmail_from’, ‘user@domain.com’);
Is this actually something I can insert into ‘my form’? I thought this was info that needs to be edited in the php.ini file, and I don’t even have access to that. Any help is MUCH appreciated.

Re: zem_contact_reborn 4.0.3.20
You can put that at the very beginning of the plugin code. Just edit the plugin on the plugins tab and add it before the first line.
