"Subscribe to this topic" not working

Page 1 of 4Next

Hi guys,

Overall the plugin is working great with the one exception that when users click the email icon “Subscribe to this topic.” it does NOT notify them of updates.

Any ideas you can share to help me get this working?

having same problem

Hello everyone,

are you sure that your server is configured correctly for sending mails? Do the users get mails for passwords and other notifications? Please also keep in mind that users get no notifications for their own replies.

Yeah, we get emails to update our plugins and we get emails when someone logs in . . . is that what you mean?

Strange. I tested it again and everything is working fine.

Can you check if some other plugins prevent the sending of mails? Please also keep in mind that banned users dont get notifications.

I think you nailed it.  I deactivated some plugins and now the notification is working as it should.

Thank you so much!

I am happy to hear that everything is working now. 🙂

Until yesterday, I was not getting any emails from my WordPress site. I installed the WP Mail SMTP plugin, which “reconfigures the wp_mail() function to use SMTP instead of mail().” I did instantly begin to get emails when new users registered, and their “test email” option came straight to my inbox. However, this morning I noticed that notifications from the forum were not being sent. On the plugin site, they have this in FAQ:

If other plugins you’re using are not coded to use the wp_mail() function but instead call PHP’s mail() function directly, they will bypass the settings of this plugin. Normally, you can edit the other plugins and simply replace the mail( calls with wp_mail( (just adding wp_ in front) and this will work. I’ve tested this on a couple of plugins and it works, but it may not work on all plugins.

Do you think this is the problem I’m having with my forum? And, if so, where would I go about replacing mail( calls with wp_mail(?

– OR –

Is there a better SMPT plugin I could try that would work with Asgros without modifications?

I wasn’t sure if I should post in this topic, or create a new one. I hope you will see this.  🙂

Hello zydanielson,

I am already using the wp_mail-function inside my plugin for sending out mails so you dont have to replace anything. Maybe you can ask the plugin-author if there are some other things you have to change (or maybe special arguments you have to pass to the mail function) to make it work without any problems.

Hi Thomas,

I posted this topic on the WP Mail SMTP support forum. So the ball is in their court.

May I ask if you are using an SMTP plugin to solve the “WordPress not sending emails” problem? And if so, what plugin are you using?

I’ll post here again when when I hear back from WP Mail SMTP.

Thanks,
Zy
