Hello,
I recently updated the easy discuss and when someone posts a new question I'm getting break tags and a broken image links. Not sure of the problem or the email template that generated this email. Thanks!

Hey there,

I am really sorry for the delay of this reply as it is a weekend for us here. Can you please download the attached file and upload it into /administrator/components/com_easydiscuss/includes/post/ and see if you are still hitting the same issue?

Thanks, I don't have permissions on my ftp to upload this file, is there any other way to correct the problem? If not, I will find a way to replace with the file sent. Just asking before I contact others to find out how to upload the file.
I'm wondering how the problem occurred?
Also, once the problem is fixed, is there a way to send out a test email to only me to see if its fixed?

Thanks for your help!!

Hey there,

Can you try upgrading EasyDiscuss to 4.0.5 ? This should already be solved in 4.0.5

Hi, I upgraded to 4.0.5 and this is when the problem began.

Also, once the problem is resolved, is there a way to send out a test email to only me to see if its fixed?

Thanks so much!

You can temporary disabled all the email notification but just left "Notify admins on new posts" to YES, then you put your email address into `Custom address` section, you can prefer on my attached screenshot below.

After that you create a new registered user account then go to your frontend and submit a new discussion post, so that the system will only send this new post email notification to your custom email.

I added joomla backend and ftp access. Feel free to replace the custom email address. Also, when I test it, emails still go out to others, so after sending, I Immediately go into Email Activity, and erase the pending emails except for mine. Please don't let them all send out, they go to the higherups!

Also, another problem is when I try selecting "Read this Discussion" at the bottom of the html email or the plain text email. It doesn't select, it's like the hyperlink doesn't work?

I attached again the issues to look at just to be clear.

Thanks for all your great help! I can't figure it out at all and .php is foreign to me.

Thanks!

Hey there,

I've applied some fix in this file JoomlaFolder\administrator\components\com_easydiscuss\includes\mailer\mailer.php , it should work fine now.

By the way, I've checked that `read this discussion` button is linkable, but I noticed you do not have create one of the Easydiscuss - frontpage menu item in your site, then causing the link is not show correct.

Oh, perfect thanks! Looks great!

Is there anyway you can make it so that the "Read the Discussion" button goes to this link? It's prohibited only to a few people linking to the direct page doesnt always work.



That should be it for now, thanks for all of your patience and help!

Great

If you would like to modify that link, you have to customize on this email template file to achieve this

JoomlaFolder\components\com_easydiscuss\themes\wireframe\emails\email.subscription.site.new.html.php

You can refer on my attached file which code you can change to.

Hi there,

You are most welcome. Glad to hear that your issue has been resolved now.

If you don't mind and if it doesn't take too much of your time, is it possible for you to post up a review or give us some rating for Easydiscuss at Joomla! Extensions Directory http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions/extension/communication/question-a-answers/easydiscuss . This will really help motivate the team and will allow us to further improve our service as we move along.

As a gentle reminder, kindly start a new thread if you have any other issue in the future so it will be easier for us to manage your inquiry. I will lock and mark this thread as resolved.
