Newsletter made simple: Unsubscribe still not working 1.0.1

Post by curana »

Hi,
The unsubscribe-function is still not working for me on 1.0.4 and NMS 1.0.1

Always "Parameter missing"

What is wrong, what can I do?

Thanks for help!

EDIT: There is another problem: When I try to send an email, I get the error "form error".
Why does this happen? I thought its 1.0.1 but it cant send emails?
What am I doing wrong? I really need this module!!!

Ok, I modified it myself.

But to be honest, I wouldnt call the 1.0.1 "productive release"...  ::)

well, sending a diff, or submitting a patch to the forge would be nice.  I've had other independent people test this module and have had no difficulties, so it must be something unique to your setup.

Well, my setup is a standard 1.0.4 cmsms installation with no special modules installed. The only thing I added to the basic install is the NMS module.

I just used the simplest setup possible to add the functionality to give it a try but i couldnt un-register for the newsletter. "Not enough parameters". Problem here: The script is asking for a userid / uniqueid which is not given by a form which just contains an emailaddress. => changed this to check for the address instead of id.

And a lot more other things u hv to change manually if u want to use only 1 list and give no option to choose.

Example:
Sign off of a list means: deactivating. So you can never register for it again. U should add a checkup, if u really want to keep the address in ur list, then activate it again when there is a new request to register instead of "user already existing". I changed this to delete a user as I dont want 50 of 100 addresses to be deactivated instead of deleted by hand.

The other thing which I didnt figure out why, i just removed the functionality, was the template thing. You can use a template (HTML, Text etc), but when I use the Standard HTML which comes with the installation I get a "form error". Nothing else. So I picked "Text only" and it worked, why so ever. So I removed others from the list as I hv my own template anyway.

to be continued...

Maybe I will check again the standard installation and make some changes to make it work. If it helps I can try to point out the differences. We will see.

I would be interested in people who get it to work just with a standard installation. I want to know what I did wrong.

I can confirm several discepancies on this module:

1. unsubscription issue. When the user unsubscribe, the entry has to be deleted otherwise he could never subscribe back again!

2. I still don't know how to handle the message composer. I always get a "Form error" back and I can use just the Text Only option, but FCKeditor will put in the mnessage a lot of html anyway. It is a mess that I don't know how to handle. I have also tried with ad hoc template, but still getting the  error.

Please send the diff!

carasmo,

the only time I get the "Form error" is when I didn't fill "Preferences" not correctly, meaning no valid mail-account for the admin.

The email is a valid account on my server and I tried my gmail account too, nothing.

I still get:

Error!

One or more required parameters are missing from the request. This action cannot proceed

But this is only for unsubscribe, the subscribe works fine.

hello curana,

Can you explain how you changed it to use e-mail instead of id (in unsubscribe form)?

Thank you very much.
