com_connect - form and contact mailer

Ah, thanks for the confirmation. No matter about the omission: good to know that my amateur code pokings were in the right direction.

BTW: this was with v 4.7.0 with my minor self-closing tags modifications.

EDIT: I submitted a PR with the update to the docs

Hello,

recently I recognized, that com_connect_serverinfo stopped working in v4.7.0 with textpattern 4.8.8.

By setting something like:

<txp:com_connect_serverinfo name="REMOTE_ADDR" label="IP Nummer" />
<txp:com_connect_serverinfo name="HTTP_USER_AGENT" label="Browser" />
<txp:com_connect_serverinfo name="REQUEST_URI" label="URI" />

I get only the labels, without any data.

IP Nummer: 

Browser: 

URI:

I tested it with php 8.0.27 and php 8.1.14. So it is probably not linked to php 8.1. I also don’t see any warnings or errors in log files.

Thanks for the report. I’ll run some tests later and try to find out what’s going on.

Just to say that I have them working on php 8.0.12.

I do suspect this is a server issue, but I can’t say for sure until I run a few tests. It may depend if the server is configured to pass that info.

Whocarez: you might get a clue from the browser inspector’s network pane. When you make requests to the server for the site, does it pass any of the server vars you’re interested in?

Probably yes, I have the txp:com_connect_serverinfo name="REMOTE_ADDR" one working fine on different servers / hosts and different versions of PHP (8.0 and 8.1).

info.php may also tell that (search for $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']).

whocarez · 2023-01-11 18:42:05

Hm, I rechecked that and with v4.6.0 it is working, but with v4.7.0 not.
phpinfo() gives normal server variables, like that

$_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT']	Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:108.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/108.0

I fetched the plugin from github.

Bloke · 2023-01-11 18:45:31

Okay, so it’s likely to be the plugin at fault then. Thanks for checking. I’ll have to do some debugging.

whocarez · 2023-01-16 18:18:29

Had today some time for more tests.
So, if I comment out in function com_connect_serverinfo

$name = sanitizeForUrl($name);

then it works.

sanitizeForUrl makes everything lowercase, as far as I understand it. So REMOTE_ADDR gets remote_addr. And because the server variables are case sensitive, they cannot be found.

D’oh. Rookie mistake. Thank you for sleuthing it. This will be patched.

Hi you all, I could use some help. I have a form that sends an email, but when I reply to sender, the email address is incorrect. It takes everything in front of the @ and adds my own domain to form the email address.

For example: the sender is johndoe@senderdomain.com
When I reply the following email address appears: johndoe@mydomain.com

Am I overlooking something?

Strange Address in ‘From’

These days the messages that I receive via the com_connect plugin use this address format in ‘From’:

com_connect <sample@sample.com X-Mailer: Textpattern X-Originating-IP: 60.47.18.233 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Content-Type: text/plain charset="UTF-8">

Previously it showed only the sender’s email address (sample@sample.com).

Is this the result of a setting on my hosting service, or is this a feature of com_connect?

I am using com_connect 4.6.0 with Textpattern 4.8.7.

phiw13 · 2023-03-10 05:56:51

That sounds like the same issue

What is the PHP version in use?

Upgrading to com_connect 4.7 might help.

Thanks. Yes that looks like the same issue.

I am using PHP version 8.0.

Just upgraded to com_connect 4.7, but still have the same issue.

Strange. This issue is marked fixed for 4.7 – if I read Github correctly.
