cyber6 Posted October 30, 2005 Share Posted October 30, 2005 I am trying to get the moblog plugin from ht*p://fahlstad.se to work. A requirement stated is; PHP support for imap_open() on your host. Does TCH support this? So far I have been unable to retrieve any email using the plugin but I know it has arrived at my designated account by checking with cpanel. cyber6.org Thanks in advance for any advise.

TweezerMan Posted October 30, 2005 Share Posted October 30, 2005 The imap_open() PHP function is supported on TCH servers. I'd first suggest making sure the parameters for the e-mail server (server name, username, password) are set up correctly in the plugin.

cyber6 Posted October 31, 2005 Author Share Posted October 31, 2005 OK, I have the plugin installed but no pictures are arriving. Here are ther settings I am using that I have checked with Outlook Express. Incoming Mail Server=mail.cyber6.org username=(account name)@cyber6.org password=(account password) These settings work and receive email. Is there anything else I could be missing?

cyber6 Posted October 31, 2005 Author Share Posted October 31, 2005 I have contacted the developer of this plugin and he experienced the same problem as I do. It would appear that the email account in use is being checked but no emails are being retrieved. Is there some kind of a restriction on open_imap at TCH? Is there some activation required? I would really like to get this plugin working. Any advice much appreciated. Neil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCH-Bruce Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 If there is a restriction the help desk would be able to tell you. The mods do not have server access and the techs don't frequent the forums. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TCH-Bruce Posted November 2, 2005 Share Posted November 2, 2005 This seems to work but I am having problems getting the fullsize image to display. But the images do get uploaded just fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCH-Bruce Posted November 2, 2005 Share Posted November 2, 2005 Not sure what I did but the full size photos are working correctly now. But I had to change the size I was resizing them from 480 to 400 for the theme I picked. This is a pretty nice plugin but unfortunately it does not work with my cell phone provider (Sprint). I am able to send email with an attachment to the blog and that works fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
