New subscribers not being added

I tried Both..
The built in and the stand alone.

@hl78,

It may be because the time column in missing in the subscribe2 database. Use PHPMyAdmin in your site control panel (via GoDaddy) to check the database for the column names. If there isn’t one called time then create it and see if that helps.

These are the fields i found in the table “wp_subscribe2”

id, email, active, date, ip, time, conf_date, conf_time, conf_ip

time column alreay exist.

@hl78,

What URL address can we view your site at?

https://wellnessawareness.info/

@hl78,

Subscribe2 is being directed to page_id=2 but looking at that it doesn’t appear to be a WordPress page as it contains about 10 recent posts.

Have you written a WordPress page to handle the Subscribe2 requests as suggested in the installation instructions? If you have you need to direct the Subscribe2 plugin to use that page in Subscribe2->Settings under the ‘Appearance’ tab.

If you haven’t written that page then I suggest you either try that and put the subscribe2 shortcode on that page or direct the Widget to use your Home Page in the Widgets settings.

– Well at first as you see i placed the widget at homepage, in the settings-> Appearance i couldn’t find the homepage in the dropdown list, yet i found it in the widget dropdown list.
anyway, what i did now, with the widget showing in homepage, in the widget dropdown i selected homepage. Check it out.

– in addition, i placed the subscription form in the contact us page using //S and in the subscribe2 settings>appearance i chose contact page.

The default Permalink Settings for all pages is
https://wellnessawareness.info/?p=123
so every page i create has an ?page_id in the querystring.

I’m trying everthing here

@hl78,

You listed the default permalink structure for “posts”, pages are handled differently in WordPress and have “?page_id=” in them unless you use a prettier permalink structure.

I’m not sure if i understood, must i use prettier permalink structure fot this to work?

@hl78,

No, you need to write a WordPress page. Look in the Admin area down the left hand side under “Pages”. It seems just like a regular post but it isn’t, it’s a Page that has slightly different properties in WordPress.

The homepage is a page and the contact page too.
I tried the control on a different host and i was able to make to work. will try to reset everything and try again……

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah frustrating
sorry for the headache

@hl78,

I’ve had a look at your site with Firebug when Subscribe or Unsubscribe is clicked this should pass a $_POST variable of subscribe or unsubscribe to the server, along with an IP value and an email value. Only on your server this isn’t working, it’s just passing the ip and email so the code doesn’t know if it is supposed to be subscribing the address or unsubscribing it.

I suspect that the server configuration is off somewhere and it’s dropping or ignoring some or all $_POST request variables.

I check the page on firebug too, and yeah i only see
ip and email variables in the post..
what other variables should show?

by the way i tried jetpack plugin and the subscribe they have didn’t work on my site too, doing same thing…
so it must be a config thing.

i’m a .net and a multimedia developer too, but have little knowledge in php

@hl78,

There should also be a ‘submit’ entry called ‘subscribe’ with the value of the text on the button (so normally ‘Subscribe’) or an entry called ‘unsubscribe’ (with a value of ‘Unsubscribe’).

I have no idea about .net, or server configuration in general for that matter. I just know that something isn’t right on yours. Take this up with your hosting provider or ask on stackexchange or similar about how to configure it correctly to accept PHP form submissions.
