Hi Jonahh

It is on the front page, at the top in the right hand column, just below the header. (Share this site)

Ok I do see that it just goes blank and nothing happens. Usually this is caused by a permissions issue on the tell a friend files. Try setting the files to CHMOD 775 and see if the problem persists.

Hi Jonahh

I received the following from our hosting provider, hope this makes sense:



i]I have temporarily enabled error_logging on the account and found the following errors when attempting to use the module. Please see below:

==========
Strict Standards: Only variables should be assigned by reference in /home/gleva/erot.gleva.co.za/modules/mod_s5_tellafriend/tmpl/tellafriend.php on line 21

Fatal error: Class 'JModuleHelper' not found in /home/gleva/erot.gleva.co.za/modules/mod_s5_tellafriend/tmpl/tellafriend.php on line 26
==========

The developers will be able to assist further with the above information.[/i][

One more question, will this plugin work in Joomla 3, I will be migrating soon.

Yes it will work in Joomla 3.x and actually might be the reason its not working in 2.5. I didn't realize you were running 2.5

Aha, I am migrating this weekend, will give you feedback, thank you so much for all the support, I really appreciate it.

Tell me where in the world are you based?

Hi Jonahh, I am back, I have loaded the site on its proper domain and it is the latest Joomla 3, The plugin seem to work, the error message is now gone, it sends and says confirmed - send more or close, however no emails come through. The new link is online-trader.co.za (top right hand column)

Let me know if there are any settings I should look at.

Thanks

Hi also please use this new email address, [email protected]

Ok thanks I do see the issue. In your global configuration area can you send a test mail for the methods "php mail" and "sendmail? Go to: "global configuration > server > mail settings". Do these 2 methods give you an email?

Hi Jonahh, I checked both and yes they do send a test mail, i received both. By the way which one should I use?


: Re: Error 500 in Joomla 2.5
: jonahh September 19, 2017, 12:24:36 PM
I believe sendmail should be the correct one. This is what the tell a friend module uses. Try enabled with sendmail, send a test email and if that works try tell a friend again.

Hi Jonahh, I changed it to sendmail, but sadly nothing, it says that it is sent, but nothing comes through.

Hi, any suggestions?
