Extension talk:ContactPage/Archive

Sender Name
I don't get a sender's name in the emails I recieve from this contact form. I've tested it myself, making sure to put a name in the form. Is there something else I need to configure to make this part of it work? Otherwise very nice extension. Thankyou--Rovo 20:07, 16 February 2007 (UTC)


 * Hm... the sender name is only used when the sender also supplies an email address (then it is shown in the reply-to header of the mail). That's kind of silly, i guess. it should also be present in the subject line. I'll fix that, thanks for the hint. -- Duesentrieb 21:37, 16 February 2007 (UTC)


 * Fixed in revision 19973. -- Duesentrieb 22:21, 16 February 2007 (UTC)

are you thinking about extending this? maybe different additional fields as option, or spam prevention? btw for me, the "send copy to me" does not work. But great extension so far, I am using it on two wikis and it works good so far ;-)


 * I have thought about additional fields, but that makes things complicated - translatable labels, limits on field input, selection boxes, etc... For spam prevention, I am planning to use Captcha-functions of the ConfirmEdit extension - but i havn't figured out how to do that yet.
 * Anyway, "send me a copy" should work... i'll check it again. -- Duesentrieb ⇌ 00:46, 19 February 2007 (UTC)


 * "send me a copy" works for me. check your logs for errors - and look in your junk mail :P -- Duesentrieb ⇌ 11:52, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

Not working on 1.10.1
I am using MW 1.10.1 and the mainpage shows up blank. Are you planning to release it for 1.10.1 too ?
 * Should work find with 1.10.1 - enabled error reporting and check the error logs. -- Duesentrieb ⇌ 20:25, 6 August 2007 (UTC)

weird
updated to latest version and now I get this:

Warning: require_once(./extensions/ContactPage/ContactPage.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: Permission denied in /var/www/web15/html/LocalSettings.php on line 161

Fatal error: require_once [function.require]: Failed opening required './extensions/ContactPage/ContactPage.php' (include_path='.:/var/www/web15/html:/var/www/web15/html/includes:/var/www/web15/html/languages') in /var/www/web15/html/LocalSettings.php on line 161

using latest mediawiki, html is my mediawiki folder. i have no idea what the script wants form the languages folder.
 * It wants nothing from the languages folder, that's just part of the include path. The actual error is "Failed opening required './extensions/ContactPage/ContactPage.php'" which indicates a problem with file permissions. Make sure PHP is able to read the files and directory of the ContactPage extension. -- Duesentrieb ⇌ 12:21, 25 April 2008 (UTC)

after quadruple-checking, I finally noticed (why do I always work late nights) that the ContactPage folder itself didn't have X permissions. so now it works. Thanks a bunch. really like this extension. thanks (spaghetti-western.net)
