WordPress Email Notification Plugin v2.3.1

I have just installed this plugin and find it hard to believe that something similar does not come as part of WP. Anywho, I have yet to write a post to see for myself but I see from previous comments here that there is/was an issue with a time delay from the post being posted to the email notification being sent. Does anyone have any news on this with using WP 2.05? Someone mentioned a fix for it on page 2, is that a good fix?

Regards

This post has been enormously helpful in setting up the plug in on my site, however, I still have the problem Calmatt had:

Could not successfully run query (SELECT * FROM wp_email_list_config WHERE id = 1) from DB: Table ‘d60304553.wp_email_list_config’ doesn’t exist

Evne though he was able to figure it out, I don’t understand how he did it. Anyone have any success with this issue?

is it possible to automaticly send the mail after 5 posts (with an overview of the last 5 posts) instead of 1? or send the mail once a day (with an overview), or once a week (with an overview)?
thanx-a-lot!

Thanks for this plugin!

anyone knows if this plugin could run in wpmu as well?

I’ve got everything setup and try to subscribe, get the thankyou page, but never receive the email. I’ve tested 5 email accounts and nothing. ??

It turns out my IP address is blacklisted because I got bouncebacks saying so. Dang nammit. Thanks for the great plugin. It works nicely. Just my own problem for now.

Hi — I’ve been using this plugin for a few weeks now. subscribe2 didn’t work out for me because it was too difficult to understand who was subscribed to what, and I could care less about category subscriptions.

Anyway, so I switched to this plugin, but I’m having some difficulty now because gmail is saying the e-mail notifications are spam. In fact, everyone is seeing the same thing. I think it’s because it says “unknown sender” for the TO line in the e-mail.

This is what it shows below. How do I fix the unknown sender being shown in the message header so that e-mail clients let the e-mail go through like normal and not mark it as spam?

Helllo,

I am trying to add a Captcha in the form and I am not having luck intergrating it into the mail list index. I am getting the second no action supplied error within the form. I have added

$secure = strtoupper(trim(strip_tags($_POST['secure'])));
$match = $_SESSION['captcha']; // the code on the image

in the GET VARIABLES FROM URL part and added the following on the top of the lines in the subscribe part. I know I am missing one small part. Any help or pointers would be great.

if (!$secure) {
$err.= "No security code entered<br/>";
}
if (($secure!=$match) && ($secure!="")) {
$err.= "Security code mismatch<br/>";
}
if ($err=="") {


I am using the Captcha script provided by https://www.digitalmidget.com/php_noob/captcha.php

Thanks!

Oh, I am also going to try to hack this script in Ryan Duff’s contact form as well…

If everything is working fine exept for the emails not being sent when a new post is made do this. Go to Manage>Email Notification>Update settings and set default notification value to yes and click update.Create a brand new post and test. For some reason that is the only way it will send the emails out for me. Manually selecting it for each post didn’t work.

I have some similar problem mentioned by “kmarion”. I have set the option default notification yes, but when I post new entry on my blog it doesn’t sent any email until I post next day or in next session.

I am using wordpress as job positng blog and 5 to 6 jobs are posted daily but only two of them are sent in emails.

any idea?

is this a bug or I have to set something?

thank you

I was installing a plug-in for word press and got the following errors. The plug-in was asking for:

Database name
Database user
Database password

I left these blank.

It used localhost as the database host.

This is the error message I received.
