Email encoding
 
Having a problem receiving emails from my PP installation full if garbage
Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.
How can i fix this?

Photopost emails are simple mail strings. I would suspect maybe your using a foreign language that can only be displayed using html email?

Russian. I am having this problem only with PhotoPost other scripts(vB, Joomla, WordPress, etc) sending emails OK-readable.
I have searched the forum and tried almost every solution possible. Nothing works.
Some said that it is a switch to html email format in Admin panel, however i could not find it.

Any help?

Chuck S October 11th, 2010 07:15 PM

well thats because Photopost Pro is not really coded to handle html emails

You really would need to modify whatever language string in which script your trying to convert into html email

For example for subscriptions which are sent from image-inc.php you have this

Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.
To send html emails it would be say this

Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

does not work :(

Chuck S October 11th, 2010 09:49 PM

should work fine just make sure you use the proper encoding

Trews October 11th, 2010 10:33 PM

Your right!
I had this in comments.php
Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.
B=0

Chuck S October 12th, 2010 08:46 AM

yeah thats not right ;)

I beleive it would be

windows-1251

or

utf-8

Trews October 12th, 2010 09:09 AM

Still having a same problems with e-cards in UTF-8
it getting sent by ecard.php and i twisted my head trying to solve the problem... Any help on this one?

Chuck S October 12th, 2010 09:18 AM

well as noted you need to edit any mail string in the scripts your trying to do html email with.

If you edit the mail string in ecard.php that should help

Now also what encoding is your russian language in utf-8 or is it windows-1251

The one included in our application is windows-1251 not utf-8

Trews October 12th, 2010 09:49 AM

Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.
is set for both english.php and russian.php

ecard.php
Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.
and
Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.
Have tried many ways non of them worked

Chuck S October 12th, 2010 09:54 AM

well you have not altered any of those to send html email

next you simply can not change a content meta line in the actual language file to utf-8

Those language strings are windows-1251

Trews October 12th, 2010 09:57 AM

i did convert the files into UTF

Trews October 12th, 2010 10:28 AM

Any help to force ecard mail strings to HTML/utf ?

Chuck S October 12th, 2010 11:22 AM

well how have you altered the code?

Have you done that what you posted above is stock code and as noted we do not do html email in the code so the code would need to be altered.

Chuck I am asking for solution. Not for suggestion. I am not the developer of Photopost and i do not have time for making your software to be able to send html emails. Have spent enough time already on it.

Or what you saying is that the script not designed to send html/utf emails. If yes, i just simply turn off the e-card option, as it seams to me just a marketing move/misleading from you guys.

Chuck S October 12th, 2010 07:02 PM

yes as noted in my initial reply we do not send html email in Photopost. My suggestion on how to alter the mail strings was something for you to try not something we support.

Well you should because it is year 2010.
Other ways, please remove that you support russian language and mention that any other language but English will have trouble integrating if using UTF-8.

This is very irresponsible Chuck!

Trews October 12th, 2010 07:16 PM

By the way, i have(had to) turned off your so call SEO and E-cards, basically chopped the balls from photopost.

Chuck S October 12th, 2010 09:14 PM

You can only use SEO urls if your server supports mod rewrite and make sure you rename the HTACCESS file to .htaccess before you try enabling SEO URLS.
