Is there a way that an external blogging program (like ecto) can trigger the notification system when an entry is posted?

After looking into it some more, it appears that the MySQL error is due to the include path of certain server setups.

In some cases the servers aren’t setup to include files from the directory you’re in.

The other possible cause is if the maillist directory is somewhere other than your web root, which makes sense…you’ll need to update a few things. (I’ll document that in the next release.)

I’ve been unable to duplicate the MySQL issue, though there are at least three cases of it. If someone would give me more details (where, your server setup, etc) that would be helpful.

Noemi, the site url needs to end with the trailing slash. Thats should fix your problem.

Here’s another problem:

After copying the /maillist/ dir to my root I actualy got to to run but..
When I received the confirmation letter the link was pointing to:
http://netslums.com/pressmaillist/index.php?action=conf&addr=1,7b2370ee028e2e58270ae00711652023

It’s missing / between press and maillist (it should be http://www.noemitm.ca/press/maillist/)

I have that problem too.. It seems like it doesn’t work if WordPress is installed in a directory other than the root of the site.

I had got errors when I tried installing it. Can’t understand what the problem is.

When I click on the email notification tab in the options of wordpress 1.5, I get the following two errors. Any ideas?

Warning: mysql_connect(): Access denied for user: ‘apache@localhost’ (Using password: NO) in /home/httpd/vhosts/tersiocity.com/httpdocs/blog/wp-content/plugins/wp-email-notification/index.php on line 38

Great plugin, works like a charm. I translated it in Dutch so if anyone needs it in Dutch just leave a message on my weblog.

Donated some money too, good tools and good people deserve that.
