I agree with binjamin. Sad I can't use this module.

Email confirmation for registration is a core feature for nearly all the CMS applications I use. It's not the sort of feature I would have thought needed to be PHP or MySQL version dependent.

I'll be re-working this module to make it compatible with the new Captcha module and php4 compatible. It'll be ready later this week.

Sorry Benjamin I was incorrect I am using php 5 I'm sorry about the confusion!



I'm still having issues with this DOLLARS5 please hep me

ght I played with it and now I get this,

Welcome to BlogEngagePLIGG_Visual_Name‏
From: admin@blogengage.comPLIGG_PassEmail_From

When I try and delete the extra text I get a parse error ?

This is where I'm at,

			echo "Welcome $username<br />";
			echo "Check your e-mail for activating your account.<br />";
			$from = 'From: admin@blogengage.com' . PLIGG_PassEmail_From . "\r\n";
			$subject="Welcome to BlogEngage" . PLIGG_Visual_Name;
			$message = "Hello " . $username . ",\r\n\r\nThanks for registering with us. Please confirm your activation by clicking the following link or by copy, pasting it into your url address field of your browser.\r\n" . my_base_url . my_pligg_base . "/validation.php?code=$encode&uid=$username\r\n\r\nRegards,\r\nAdministrator";
			$to=$email;
			mail($to, $subject, $message, $from);

EDIT: I just did it like this and I don't have an error I will try it and see if it works,

		echo "Welcome $username<br />";
			echo "Check your e-mail for activating your account.<br />";
			$from = 'From: admin@blogengage.com' . 
			$subject="Welcome to BlogEngage" .
			$message = "Hello " . $username . ",\r\n\r\nThanks for registering with us. Please confirm your activation by clicking the following link or by copy, pasting it into your url address field of your browser.\r\n" . my_base_url . my_pligg_base . "/validation.php?code=$encode&uid=$username\r\n\r\nRegards,\r\nAdministrator";
			$to=$email;
			mail($to, $subject, $message, $from);

Alright I still get an error when I do it this way,

Warning: mail(): Bad parameters to mail() function, mail not sent. in /home/content/b/b/r/bbrian017/html/blogengage/register.php on line 173

Line 173 is,

		mail($to, $subject, $message, $from);

Cheers,

Just by taking a look at the code you posted, I see a problem here...

PHP Code:

            $from = 'From: admin@blogengage.com' . 
            $subject="Welcome to BlogEngage" . 


You cut off half of the original code, and you're ending the lines with a . (period) instead of a ; (semicolon).

[bbrian017]

When I add the code back in ashdigg,

$from = 'From: admin@blogengage.com' . PLIGG_PassEmail_From . "\r\n";
$subject="Welcome to BlogEngage" . PLIGG_Visual_Name;

Then when you recieve the confirmation it looks like this,

Welcome to BlogEngagePLIGG_Visual_Name‏
From: admin@blogengage.comPLIGG_PassEmail_From

I got this to work, thanks everyone

I am curious to know what the problem was... What did the trick?

[bbrian017]

Well I'm a noob when it comes to coding and pligg. I mean I can copy paste pretty good but when I have to copy paste and modify I'm in big trouble lol.

When people were signing up they were getting a confirmation e-mail that looked like this in the Body and Title,

Welcome to BlogEngagePLIGG_Visual_Name‏
From: admin@blogengage.com PLIGG_PassEmail_From

So I took out this,

. PLIGG_PassEmail_From . "\r\n"

and

. PLIGG_Visual_Name

So the register.php looked like this at first,

echo "Welcome $username<br />";
			echo "Check your e-mail for activating your account.<br />";
			$from = 'From: admin@blogengage.com' . PLIGG_PassEmail_From . "\r\n";
			$subject="Welcome to BlogEngage" . PLIGG_Visual_Name;
			$message = "Hello " . $username . ",\r\n\r\nThanks for registering with us. Please confirm your activation by clicking the following link or by copy, pasting it into your url address field of your browser.\r\n" . my_base_url . my_pligg_base . "/validation.php?code=$encode&uid=$username\r\n\r\nRegards,\r\nAdministrator";
			$to=$email;
			mail($to, $subject, $message, $from);

and now it works perfect like this,

			echo "Welcome $username<br />";
			echo "Check your e-mail for activating your account.<br />";
			$from = 'From: admin@blogengage.com';
			$subject="Welcome to BlogEngage" ;
			$message = "Hello " . $username . ",\r\n\r\nThanks for registering with us. Please confirm your activation by clicking the following link or by copy, pasting it into your url address field of your browser.\r\n" . my_base_url . my_pligg_base . "/validation.php?code=$encode&uid=$username\r\n\r\nRegards,\r\nAdministrator";
			$to=$email;
			mail($to, $subject, $message, $from);
