Testimonial Manager Support Thread

Hi Clyde,

I have your mod working on another site without a hitch (1.3.8a), but my latest install on a 1.3.7 site will not send the site owner notification nor the activation email The first one (notification of posting) is received OK.

I have checked and rechecked the install and everything looks good. I even reinstalled it with the same results. Any pointers as to what may be the problem would be appreciated.

Which version of Testimonial Manager are you using on your ZC 1.3.7 site?

Which version of Testimonial Manager are you using on your ZC 1.3.7 site?

Tried 1.4.4 first, then 1.5.0 then 1.5.2. I put it back on 1.4.4.

Looks like the one I had on the 1.3.8a (1.5.0 TM) stopped working also, as I just tried to verify that it was still OK. Same results as my new install.

The 1.3.8a is on a different host than the 1.3.7 site.

try TM 1.5.1 on your 1.3.8a site.

try TM 1.5.1 on your 1.3.8a site.

Thanks Clyde,

This is really strange!

Think I figured out the culprit. Looks like it's partly AOL. They probably consider any rapidly sequencial emails as spam and block them.

I changed all of my contact #'s to a different email server and now I get the owners notification that it is pending a review.

I don't get the user notification or the update one (thats still through AOL) and I don't have any other idea as to the why's, but I can live with that. I will at least be able to review and activate them now!

I really do hate AOL, but I had it for so long for my personal email that I don't want to change.

It has really been a crap shoot trying to isolate this problem. I thank you for your time and effort!

Hello.

I have just uploaded the Testimonial Manager and thank you for the contribution. Everything seems to be working fine except that on the display all testimonials page the meta tag says: META_TAG_TITLE_PAGE_TESTIMONIALS_MANAGER_ALL_TESTIMONIALS and is not displaying the correct information.

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

Thank You.
