Hi shanepetty, thanks for your reply.

Yes, I have already run a compatability check and contacted my web host about the two items below. They are not installed on the shared server because of security issues.
Opcode cache: Not installed
Memcache extension: Not installed

There were also a few php modules that were not detected although the web host assures me that they are in fact available.

I should add that I have tried to do a page debug but the code does NOT appear in the source code at the bottom – all I get is the basic “performance optimized by W3 Total Cache…”

So that doesn’t appear to be working on my site.

I have also run a compatability test as below. My web host has said that Memcache is not installed because of security issues but also said that the (not detected) php modules are, in fact, all installed.

PHP Version: 5.2.17
PHP Timezone: Not set
Web Server: Apache
FTP functions: OK (required for Self-hosted (FTP) CDN support)
Multibyte String support: OK (required for Rackspace Cloud Files support)
cURL extension: OK (required for Amazon S3 support)
zlib extension: OK (required for compression support)
Opcode cache: Not installed
Memcache extension: Not installed
Mime type detection: Mimetype
Hash function: hash (required for NetDNA purge support)
Safe mode: Off
Open basedir: Off
zlib output compression: Off
mod_mime: Not detected
mod_expires: Not detected
mod_deflate / mod_gzip: Not detected
mod_headers: Not detected
mod_env: Not detected
mod_setenvif: Not detected
mod_rewrite: Not detected

Unfortunately the plugin does not seem to have added any performance to the site which is a shame. Although I have experimented with the the settings YSlow is reporting:

Cache-Control no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre-check=0
Pragma no-cache

I may have overlooked something very simple. Any pointers would be very much appreciated. Thanks.

Hi chodorowicz. Thanks for your advice. I added the code to submit.php and it does make the confirmation messages show when using custom permalinks. However, when adding a new email address it doesn’t work and produces this error:

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare class PHPMailer in /wp-includes/class-phpmailer.php on line 34

So still looking for a “cure”.

Hi bulini. I have used Sendit on wordpress 2.9.2 with no problem but there does seem to be a problem with 3. The first post on this thread had the same problem too.

It still doesn’t work on my site (confirmation messages) – maybe I’ve overlooked something?

Thanks for your help.

Hi bulini. Have installed new version – 1.5.8. It only works on default permalinks unfortunately. So whatever was conflicting with custom permalinks in the previous versions is still causing a problem in this new version.

Would be good to get this working with day and name permalinks as is more user friendly. Sendit is such a good plugin apart from this problem.

Here’s the site with the new sendit.

Thanks for your help.

Thanks for looking into this bulini. However, it doesn’t seem to work at all now.

I am using 3.0.3 and don’t get any confirmation messages when trying to subscribe. Also the email address does not register on the mailing list. Have tried it with default permalinks and custom but doesn’t work on either.

Any ideas?

Make sure you use the full URL for your image location otherwise it won’t work ie. <img src=”https://www.yourdomain.com/wp-content/themes/twentyten/images etc”

I have tried changing the permissions of the plugin folder and still no luck. The only way to get it working properly is to change the permalinks to default as attorianzo says above.

Had a look at the sendit plugin site. “The Ajax error in voting” seems to be a common problem as it is listed in the FAQs. The plugin developer suggests altering the chmod permissions on the plugin folder although he doesn’t say what to alter it to – maybe 755?

Haven’t tried it yet.

Yes, I am getting the same problem. Have used sendit on another site with no problem but am getting an ajax problem with a new site.

So would appreciate any tips.

Yes, I would like to be able to add a custom comment field too. Have looked at so many forum posts but no real answer.

I simply want to have a comment form like this:

Name: Joe Bloggs
Email: [email protected]
Parent: Yes or No

I don’t even need the website field. Any ideas, anyone?

Just tried it and it works! Thank you! I had been trying some complicated code concoctions but this is really simple.

Great stuff!

It’s great – thank you!

I will be mainly using 3 columns except for the home page and news etc which will retain the 2 column layout.

It works great in IE6 which is fab!!
