Guestbook not working

[mungo]

Hi all,
I'm running CMSMS 1.5.3.  PHP 5.2.6, and MySQL 5.0.81 with Apache 2.0.63 running on Linux

Guestbook is version (upgraded to) 1.1.10 (was 1.1.7)

This was working OK before, I guess it got broken when I upgraded to CMSMS to 1.5.3.

When a new Guestbook entry is is posted, the message does not reach the Guestbook admin page and I don't receive an e-mail conformation. I have disabled captcha with no difference.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance,
Lloyd.

Guestbook-1.1.11 fixes compatibility with the latests CMS Made Simple versions (1.5+).

Kind regards,

Sorry, bit slow getting back on this one...
I upgraded to 1.1.11 and it's still not working. Difficult to figure out what's wrong with this one as it's not giving me an error message! 

Thanks,
Lloyd.

If you're using URL rewriting/pretty URL's you should install Guestbook-1.1.12
Otherwise I'm not sure what could go wrong, did you remove any of the location/country fields from the template maybe?
Can you post a link to the guestbook?

Regards,

Sorry, didn't realise a new version was released already... Yes I have got pretty urls, incidentally I had to do this:
http://forum.cmsmadesimple.org/index.ph ... 317.0.html
to get the input form to display. Maybe I am breaking it by doing that, as it is still not working. 

Many thanks,
Lloyd.

In 1.1.12 the issue with the missing trailing slash with pretty URL's was fixed (the module method GetURL() was changed to return the right URL), so you shouldn't have to make any changes to any files after an upgrade to Guestbook-1.1.12.

If you added the trailing slash to your guestbook form template you should remove it there.

OK I removed the slash from:
$this->smarty->assign('formstart', 'getURL() .'" method="post">');

and I have reset all of the templates to default. Now when I press New Guestbook Entry button the input form doesn't show. Here's what's showing in the source:




rgds,

OK, I've kind of made some progress with this. If I switch the Guestbook setting "Show insert form immediately:" on AND I put a forward slash in in the form template it starts working and I get the authorisation e-mail through. So nearly solved but not quite!

Thanks,
Lloyd.
