    I apologize for the trouble. It's not working for me anymore, too....I could swear it did the last time. Must be related with some changes in the last version... Anyway, I need to take a real closer look and I surely will fix it. Please stay tuned on this thread.
  • will do, thanks a lot Malte.
  • Certainly will and thanks for your help.
  • I've made a number of fixes to this plugin in [2749]. You can either get it from the SVN or wait for tonight's nightly build. Anyway, I think you will find it working now. But let us know.
  • I can confirm this working now, thanks... Now I am wondering a bit about the layout of the email being sent.

    wouldn't be great to have some kind of layout instead of 1 flowing line.

    As well I am getting some extra stuff in the email.

    The fields I have in my small test are.

    Name
    Email
    Phone
    Subject

    However what I get in the email is 1 line of

    all that and an Extra saying Company and http://

    btw the main reason for the not sent email was a typo related to the different writing of "address" in German (it's "Adresse" there...). I just didn'T see it...

    The one line issue is probably because there are only "\n" at the end of the lines but it should apparently be "\r\n"... Ah, these details..:-(
  • Thanks for all your work on this guys.

    Its working for me, the form submission is now being received at the email address I have entered in contact_form plugin options but it was getting caught in my hosts spam filter every time as it was being seen as being sent from something like `userxxxx@myhost.customer.net` (which from the long mail header seems to be the return path) as opposed to the email address set in contact_form plugin options or on the form. So I have had to enter this `userxxxx@myhost.customer.net` in my white list, something other users of this plugin may experience.

    Thanks again, acrylian later I'll be going back over to the other thread about getting this plugin to work in a 'zenpage page' :-)
  • I am getting the same kind as Steven email from something like. $mailaddress@servername.hostingcompany.com

    are there any updates about layout?

    and yes the same as image Description I am getting Charset errors when using non english letters.

    Please try the version from the nightly. I had the problem myself, it seems somehow that my host does not like if headers are added. So now all incl. the Bc/Cc is thrown out and only "From: " left in. The copy of the mail is now sent directly. That way it works for me now. German "umlauts" do work for me, too.
  • This charset error just keeps popping up(or well has been almost allways, except when I used Icelandic MAC charset, however that does not work any more. and I really would like UTF-8 to work) I really hope to find a solution for it asap as I wanted to open 3 pages with Icelandic characters in the description of the files.
  • acrylian Administrator, Developer
    You can try to hack the header with the charset into the plugin. That it does not work for me, of course does not mean that it won't for you.

    EDIT: I just looked at my test mail and it seems that my host sends it as utf8. At least in the header it says that.
  • yeah... I have seen that it is UTF-8 as well as anything else in my gallery and Database. However I am still getting these errors in the text and database tables.

    EDIT: Could you please try and put this photo here into your gallery system and tell me what you get in the Description on the page.

    it has some Icelandic letters.

    What I get in my ZenPhoto is

    `
    Prufa að setja íslenska stafi í þetta er UTF-8 að virka íáóúéþðö
    `
    It should be

    I am not sure if the mail sent issue is related with the general one. Anyway, I get the same wrong characters as you. I am no exif expert, but is it possible that the exif data is in the wrong charset? If I post the icelandic characters directly into the desc field, everything is okay.
  • Then this is the typical Adobe problem with Charsets, They have been disregarding this for years now. This is an export from Lightroom and it should be UTF-8. I think Photoshop has the same problem. However I am a bit surprised I am getting UTF-8 bug in the email.

    EDIT: I did a test in Photoshop same problem with Charset.
  • I decided to take that same photo and try it on a `zenphoto version 1.1.3` I have running for a client. I am on my way to update it but will hold for now...

    The photo above reads perfectly fine into Zenphoto all the Icelandic characters stay intact.
  • sadly still no emails sent :(
  • acrylian Administrator, Developer
    If you haven't you need to try the nightly. Also, php mail do not work on every server. Please check if you have sendmail enabled.
  • Ya I have that nightly uploaded and Drupal is able to send mail so i can only assume zenphoto should too :P hehe
  • acrylian Administrator, Developer
    Well, it is working for me now (also for sbillard and aitf311 of the team). So it will be hard for us to help without being able to reproduce it.

    We use the zp core function that also sends the comments mail and that actually uses the standard php mail() function. Have you checked if that works directly on your server?

    I know Drupal only by name so I don't know what that uses.
  • flu Member
    Sorry to ask this silly question but is this plugin can work if the comments are disabled in the settings ?
  • acrylian Administrator, Developer
    Yes, it is not related to the comments except that it use the core mail function.
  • seems to work nicely now :) and the subject line is fixed too? hehe nice
