E-Mail notification

Anonymous — GMT

Is there any way to setup so that when someone leaves a message in the guestbook, the notification e-mail will go to 2 e-mail accounts instead of just the webmaster account?

Thanx!

Well if your hosts supports it you could set up an account that forwards to 2 addresses or you can wait till I write you the mod for it, shouldn't be to hard as it wil just be a single line.

I think it would be easier if you wrote a mod that I could use, please.

Thanx!

OPen up [b]lib/add.class.php[/b]. Find:[code] if ($this->db->VARS["notify_admin"]==1 && $this->private==0) {
@mail($this->db->VARS["admin_mail"],$this->db->LANG["EmailAdminSubject"],"$this->name\n$this->host\n\n$this->comment", "From: <".$this->name."> $from_email\nX-Mailer: Advanced Guestbook 2");
}[/code]
Replace with:[code] if ($this->db->VARS["notify_admin"]==1 && $this->private==0) {
@mail($this->db->VARS["admin_mail"],$this->db->LANG["EmailAdminSubject"],"$this->name\n$this->host\n\n$this->comment", "From: <".$this->name."> $from_email\nX-Mailer: Advanced Guestbook 2");
@mail('EMAIL ADDRESS HERE',$this->db->LANG["EmailAdminSubject"],"$this->name\n$this->host\n\n$this->comment", "From: <".$this->name."> $from_email\nX-Mailer: Advanced Guestbook 2");
}[/code]Changing 'EMAIL ADDRESS HERE' for the second email address you want to send notification to remembering to keep it between the ' ' .

Put it on my GuestBook and tested it out. It's not getting the notification to the secondary e-mail address. The notification to the primary address is just fine.

for some reason I NEVER get email notifications of posts, even though I entered it into my admin area. what do you think might be the problem? Where can I look to check?

[quote="rocket rabbit"]for some reason I NEVER get email notifications of posts, even though I entered it into my admin area. what do you think might be the problem? Where can I look to check?[/quote]Did you tell it to send you email notfications and did you supply a valid email address ?

yes, and yes. Also. the email notification to posters doesnt go out iether. i have tested that myself whan I did some test posts9and I put my own email address into the entry field).

Would it be possible for you to email me your gustbook link along with the admin username and password so I could look at the files. My email is at the bottom of this post.

I'm still not able to receive a secondary e-mail notification.

Hmmmmmmmmmm I don't see why my idea of doubling the mail function didn't work. I wonder if putting a CC in the header would work. Let me look into it.

If it sheds any light on the subject, I formerly got emails whenever somebody posted to my guestbook. One day that stopped working (over six months ago), and I learned to live without the notifications.

I formerly thought it was a problem with my web host, since I had done nothing to my Guestbook, and the host people were clueless about the Guestbook, even though they offer it as a feature. Now I'm thinking it's a problem with the ever-intensifying scruitny of emails by spam filters. (I've recently made extensive changes to my Guestbook, and I'm digging into things to find the root of the notification problem.)

On my Guestbook, addresses go out fine to some of my email addresses (on comcast.net), but won't go under any circumstances to others (on aol.com).

Yes as is being discussed in another thread AOL's spam filters hate email notifications.

Ok to send two emails try this. Open add.class.php and find[code]@mail($this->db->VARS["admin_mail"],$this->db->LANG["EmailAdminSubject"],"$this->name\n$this->host\n\n$this->comment", "From: <".$this->name."> $from_email\nX-Mailer: Advanced Guestbook 2");[/code]It occurs twice. Where it says [code]$this->db->VARS["admin_mail"][/code]try this[code]$this->db->VARS["admin_mail"].",second@email.com".[/code]
