zem_contact_reborn 4.0.3.20

txpdevcoder · 2012-06-07 13:23:51

Hi there.

My Host (Media Temple) recently upgraded PHP to PHP version: 5.3.13 and now zem_contact_appears to not succesfully send emails out from contact forms. It reaches the the thank you page for filling the form out, and does not report any errors. so i think its succesfully sending, but the email never arrives in my inbox. to and from address in the contact form are unique, and exist and belong to that domain / hosting account.

Is there an issue with this version of PHP and zem_contact_reborn-4.0.3.20m

Thanks

James

I just tried it out on a server running PHP 5.3.13 with zem_contact_reborn-4.0.3.20 and it works as supposed. So something else got upgraded on you server. I suggest you contact your host and ask for support.

I’m PHP 5.3.5 and zem 4.0.3.20 on (mt) (dv server) and all still works. Good luck.

well thats even more intresting, thank you alanfluff. seems i cant change to 5.3.5 on the grid server. did you manually install it, as your on dedicated?

alanfluff · 2012-06-07 19:08:42

No I didn’t manually install that ver of PHP. I’m not super-smart at sys-admin stuff so I rely on the standard build for the most part and I am almost certain I’ve not upgraded my PHP myself. I used to be on gs, I’ve not been on it for over a year now and going dv took more $ and some steep learning (for me) but it’s been 100% worth it.

Hi James, do you happen to be using Gmail or Google Apps for your email? You say the email addresses exist and belong to the same domain/hosting account.

I’ve had similar sounding issues with messages being filtered out prior to even reaching a spam folder at Google Apps, due to SPF on our server end and other email security settings at Google’s end. I can’t explain how the PHP upgrade might have contributed to this, but the symptoms sound very similar.

To get around it I edited zem_contact_reborn to manually set the ‘envelope sender’ in the message headers using a -f flag:

Near line 229:
if (mail($to, $subject, $msg, $headers,"-f ".$from))

and near line 235:
mail(zem_contact_strip($zem_contact_from), $subject, $msg, $headers,"-f ".$from);

Hopefully that would help mail delivery, even if you’re using your local mail server.

Hello all,

after redaing some 20 pages of porst, I couldnt find the answer I was looking for so here is my question.

I am using zem_contact_reborn so that volunteers can sign up to volunteer at a specific camp(s). I am using the zem_contact_checkbox and I have put it not required as I have 4 choices of camps to choose from.

As I understand it, putting all 4 required would prevent the form to submit as all checkbox would have to be selected. Although I really need my volunteers to indicate which camps they want to volunteer for.

Here is the code for the form:

(...)
<tr>								
<td colspan="2"><h4>I want to be at ...</h4></td></tr>							
<tr>
<td colspan="2">
<txp:zem_contact_checkbox group="Campselect" label="Kids Kamp" name="Kids Kamp" required="0"/><span class="early">July 3 - 7 </span><br>
<txp:zem_contact_checkbox group="Campselect" label="Family Camp" name="Family Camp" required="0" /><span class="early">July 14 - 29 </span><br>
<txp:zem_contact_checkbox group="Campselect" label="Young Adult Camp" name="Young Adult Camp" required="0"/><span class="early">Aug 3 - 5</span><br>
<txp:zem_contact_checkbox group="Campselect" label="Youth Camp" name="Youth Camp" required="0"/><span class="early">Aug 6 - 11</span></td>
</tr>
(...)

Is there a way that I can tell Zem_contact to make sure that 1 or more of those checkboxes are selected?

I’m sorry if this question seems easy, its just that I am not that good with php, Am I right to assume that it is a php issue?

Thaks for your help in advance

Patrick

@pafruu, you can probably do this by combining ZCR with adi_contact

I’m getting a ‘Function split() is deprecated’ error using <txp:zem_contact_select /> … I searched the forum and found that I have to change ‘split’ into ‘explode’ in the plug-in code. But than I’m getting the error ’406 Not Acceptable’. It means I’m not permitted to change the file or something … !? Some help is appreciated on how I must tackle this one.
