Blank Emails Being Sent

[Skip Bertsch]

I switched on the editor function, registered myself. Then attempted to login with the username and password I entered when I submitted the infomration to be an editor into the form. Hit submit.

Tried to login, it wouldn't let me.

Used the "forgot" password.

I got a blank email to my email address, with no message or subject.

In Admin Panel | Configure | Configure Email, make sure you have that feature enabled. As I discovered, if it's disabled, the admin still gets an email but with nothing in it. :)

Thanks DJ for the hint.. appreciate your time to help.

Yes, If you did not enable the send email features for all the templates, then you will get blanl emails. This should be avoided. We eagerly need a hack for this issue.

Wow, wish I had found this sooner. 5 blank emails today.

Greetings to all,

The mistake connected with addition links is found.

Correction of this problem will not occupy many efforts.

***Open dir.php file and find following block of code:***


function addLink($aLink)
{
$sql = "INSERT INTO `{$this->mPrefix}links` (";
foreach($aLink as $key=>$value)
{
$sql .= ($key != 'id_category') ? " `{$key}`, " : '';
}
$sql .= "`date`) VALUES (";
foreach($aLink as $key=>$value)
{
$sql .= ($key != 'id_category') ? "'{$value}'," : '';
}
$sql .= "NOW())";

if ($this->mDb->query($sql))
{
$sql = "INSERT INTO `{$this->mPrefix}link_categories` ";
$sql .= "(`id_link`, `id_category`) ";
$sql .= "VALUES ('{$aLink['id']}', '{$aLink['id_category']}')";
}

$category = $this->getCategoryById($aLink['id_category']);

/** sends email to administrator **/
$admin =& $this->getAdmin();
if ($admin['submit_notif'])
{
$this->mMailer->sendSubmissionNotif($admin, $aLink, $category);
}

$aSendmail = ($this->mConfig) ? true : false;

if($aLink['email'] && $aSendmail)
{
$cause = ($this->mConfig['auto_approval']) ? "link_approve" : 'link_submit';
$this->mMailer->sendMail($cause, $aLink, $category);
}

return $this->mDb->query($sql);
}


*** In this code replace the text of red color with the following: ***


$aSendmail = ($this->mConfig['link_submit']) ? true : false;


***Save File***

I am not sure, that empty forms of messages are connected to all blanks of Email.

If it not so, please inform about it!
