new topic emails stopped working

Ok so in the log the entire list of emails showed up in this format

[email protected] calling wp_mail() with email

I notice that it added 444 after every email if that means anything

You mean it added 444 BEFORE every email, right? That’s just the line number, rendered by the __LINE__ part in the debug.

So, the plugin is being called, and it’s reaching that point in the code. Remove the bbpnns_dry_run filter to let it move further ahead to the actual wp_mail call. You might also want to change the Recipient roles so as not to spam your participants during the next phase.

Now you need to test that wp_mail is actually working. I glanced over this tutorial and it looks really good:

Part 1: https://www.butlerblog.com/2012/09/23/testing-the-wp_mail-function/

Part 2: https://www.butlerblog.com/2013/09/24/troubleshooting-the-wp_mail-function/

Keep me posted.

Deleted the message as I realized what probably happened

@gptxffa, now that I’m a little bit more awake, I realized that you’re probably seeing the 444 of the next entry glued to the end of the previous entry. Please go ahead and follow the tutorial for testing the wp_mail() call above.

ok i did that and tried it with several emails address and each time it worked

oh i just realized i didnt remove any of the code you gave me,

i just followed the guide you posted and it work.

I don’t understand. What worked? The tests from the tutorial, the plugin? Did you find out what the problem was?

So notifications are being sent out?

Ok I deleted the filter out of the Functions pluging,
then I deleted the log file from server,
then I changed the recipients on your app,
then I updated a thread,

and here is what is in the new Log file:

444 calling wp_mail() with email [email protected] calling wp_mail() with email [email protected] calling wp_mail() with email [email protected] calling wp_mail() with email [email protected] calling wp_mail() with email [email protected] calling wp_mail() with email [email protected]

No emails were received. I did not make any changes in the php file of your plugin if that was also required.

the test for WP mail is what worked

Please contact me via email so I can look further into that. I’ll update the thread once I’ve figured it out.

The problem was UTF-8 characters in the subject line that was blocking the outgoing message. I tried encoding the data using quoted-printable and setting the header Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable, but it didn’t work.

I’ll investigate this further. In the meantime, I’ll be calling htmlentities() on the subject line to make sure everything goes through.

Version 1.8.2.1 coming up.

v1.8.2.1 released. closing the ticket as fixed. I’ll try to get a better fix on version 1.9.
