As of version 2.1 the from field should be pulled from the DB and use the info you entered.

Something like: Blog Name

If I come across a possible cause, I’ll let you know.

the emails are coming through From a blank sender, just a dash/hyphen. i’d imagine that might cause problems w/ spam filters, any idea how to fix that?

second, didn’t quite figure out what to take out to get the double-spacing to go away, tried a few things, no dice.

but i’m ecstatic i got the other part working thanks to your help

import_request_variables(‘GP’);

is all i needed, thanks

“failed to open stream: No such file or directory in”

If it can’t select from the DB, it should tell you that as well.

After looking a bit closer, I believe line 10 of index.php can be removed/commented out:

include_once (dirname(dirname(dirname(dirname(__FILE__)))) . “/wp-config.php”);

As for the spacing, that’s all in the plugin. Just look for preg_replace and you’ll see quite a few lines.

I’m not sure if that would cause a conflit in some cases, but is something I’m going to clean up for v2.2.

it almost seems like it’s not using the right database info in the plugin though… but wouldn’t it at least bark at me or give me an error when i tried to update via the admin panel if it wasn’t right?

# CONFIG SECTION

# Database Information
$db = ‘arcade_wordpress’;
$dbuser = ‘arcadefire’;
$dbpass = ‘password’; (not really my password
$dbhost = ‘localhost’; // localhost is default

# END CONFIG SECTION

import_request_variables(gp, “”);

Did it not write to the file upon install (it needs to be CHMOD 666 before running the script)? If wpemn_config.php is empty, incorrect or not included, the admin panel will not work.

http://www.arcadefire.net

mailist is

http://www.arcadefire.net/maillist/

i’ll try and make that modification and see how that works.

So the notification part works, but nothing in the admin panel does? If that’s the case you probably need to update line 18 of index.php in the plugin directory.

Try changing:
include (“$DOCUMENT_ROOT/maillist/wpemn_config.php”);

To:
include (ABSPATH.”/maillist/wpemn_config.php”);

And see if that does anything for you.

Also, what version of PHP are you running?

And where is the maillist folder located in relation to where WordPress resides?

==================================
Sam,

How are you running the install script?

If you enter in your info into the form fields, it *should* insert the data into your DB (which should be the same DB WP uses).

Are you saying that everything works except for the Update Settings?

If there are no entries in the wp_email_list_config table the web interaface is not able to add any entries. It is only able to modify once data is present in the table.

I am still having trouble with the install. While the install script does run (without errors!) and create the wpemn_config.php file, it does so with all empty entries and did not create the database structure (even though it said it did). When I did all of that by hand I will still not able to modify any of the database information via the web interface (though I could display the config info from the web interface).

My troublshooting time for the evening is spent. I may try again, or I my try another solution.

My blog is not installed at “wordpress”, though your packaging makes that assumption. If you were you remove the wordpress level to the dir then I could have just placed the zip inside my blog directory and then unzipped (and everything would go in the correct place). Currenty I am having to manually move a bunch as stuff to the correct location.

Thanks… back to the install for me.
