TDeeming, what operating system are you running on ?
And the following is correct for your live site
MW 1.9, PHP 5.253 and MYSQL 5.041
Tell me what wiki version you want me to trouble shoot for, so i know what to install.

Hi and thanks for the help.
The OS is XP Professional SP3.
MW (1.93)
PHP 5.2.1 (apace2handler)
MySQL 5.0.33
Standard Mail and messaging uses $wgSMTP
$wgSMTP = array(
'host' => "mail.example.com", //could also be an IP address
'IDHost' => "example.com",
'port' => 25,
'auth' => true,
'username' => "my_user_name",
'password' => "my_password"
);
For a special extension called MassMailer I also have Mercury Mail running.
I am wary about upgrading the wiki to a newer version as I am using many extensions... and the functionality of them is not always guaranteed with newer versions. So if possible, please target for MW 1.93.
Thanks,
Tim

That might be a problem with the forum. A while back someone posted a problem with blank pages and Windows XP (IIS 6). At the time i tried to trouble shoot it but could not find a solution.
Are you using IIS 6 or Apache as your http server ?
To be completely honest with you, and i do not mean to be rude with this, but XP-pro and IIS6 are not gonna be a top priority for the forum extension. Theres just too few people using that combo.
I'll look into $wgSMTP (thanks for the link) and see how it works and try and work something out for that.

- No email notification when subscribed to a thread... but also no warning about failure. The informaion is just entered into the email list.
- When I try to send a PM the following message is displayed.
- Catchable fatal error: Object of class MailAddress could not be converted to string in C:\Programme\xampp\htdocs\wiki\includes\UserMailer.php on line 46
Just tested that under linux, apache, wiki 1.9.6, forum 2.5.x and received the same error.
Try the following edits and post back the results if you have time.
Edit (make a back-up first  ) the following file: /extensions/awc/forums/send_mail.php
Find foreach($email_addresses as $email){
$to_address[] = new MailAddress( $emai );
}
and replace it with: foreach($email_addresses as $email){
$addr = $email->address;
$name = $email->name;
$to_address[] = new MailAddress( $addr, $name );
}
Find and delete:
if ( is_array( $to ) ) {
wfDebug( __METHOD__.': sending mail to ' . implode( ',', $to ) . "\n" );
} else {
wfDebug( __METHOD__.': sending mail to ' . implode( ',', array( $to->toString() ) ) . "\n" );
}
Have not had time to look into the other bugs, will do soon.

Made changes as you suggested
|
Hi,
I made the changes you posted above.
- I no longer get an Error mesage when I send a PM...
- Question: Are PM's sent to the Users email address?
Maybe I misunderstood that part because of the error message. Anyway, no mail was recieved. So I just tried on this forum... to send myself a PM and I also didn't receive an email... but it is entered into the MemCP as an unread PM... so I am assuming that this is the proper operation... which is fine.
- I still do not get an email when subscribed threads are changed... but then you may not have addressed that matter yet.
Anyways... thanks for your efforts 
Tim

Replace that last edit with...
#
foreach($email_addresses as $email){
$addr = $email->address;
$name = $email->name;
if($addr == ''){
$addr = $email;
$name = '';
}
$to_address[] = new MailAddress( $addr, $name );

No change!

I made the changes... but still no emails.
What do you mean by valid "Wiki Email"?

The forum sends emails to people using the email address they have saved in there wiki-preferences.
So if a person does not have a working email address in their wiki-preferences, then the forum will not be able to send emails to them. The forum does a check, if the person does not have an email, the forum will ignore and move on.

Okay, this being the case... all users have valid addresses... and they are being notified by email when watched wiki pages are changed. However it does not currently work with the AWC Forum software.

Hi all,
I just upgraded from the latest stable to 2.5.7. This version is so muuuccchhhh better Thank you. Just 2 questions:
- Is it possible to download 2.5.8 somewhere? Or is it not released yet?
- How to display the unread threads in bold (like in phpBB2)? Is this possible? Any CSS style for this?
Thank you.

Thanks glad you like it
- Theres not a 2.5.8 public release, still working on it and it wont be ready for a while.
- Nope, no setting like that (if you want, you can add it to the "todo list" and ill try and work it in), just the indicator at the begining of the thread title. You can change that in the AdminCP Lang section to something else or even an image you have stored on your wiki (you can use wiki syntax in the land section). If you fell like changing the forums code, look in the /forums/includes/thread_list_tools.php and find the function new_thread_check($tID, $t_lastdate){ function. Thats where the "check" is.

@TDeeming
I can attest that 2.5.7 works fine with emails. However, I'm overriding the default logic but the handling is still there.
You know that only after uses "visit" the thread will the email be triggered again? If a uses doesnt view the thread, said user will never get an email
