    @ura soul, it looks like files were changed on the guy's server. On a properly configured server that should not be possible. This has nothing to do with Elgg accounts or connecting to mysql. 1. The web server user should not be able to write to... view reply

    • Hi iionly,

      Thank you for sharing those links,

      I have checked those links and found that 

       "The registration email may end up in the person's spam folder and in others it may not arrive at all. There are many reasons why this might be happening:

      • The headers of the email do not conform to the standard (as is common with spam email)
      • Your content is being considered as spam according to the spam filters. Small changes in wording or use of links can affect this.
      • Your server is not trusted"

      I belive that there is something that I have to do with the points that are mentioned. Could someone please guide me with it.

    • If it's only the verification emails that fail to receive the users, you can try changing the wording within the email body to see if it helps. But I won't expect too much of this - it might help on short term but the spam filters of the email providers will learn and you will have the same problem again at some time in future (rather sooner than later). Also, changing anything in the email header seems not promising to me - after all the other notification emails do reach their destination, so it's not a general problem with the email header.

      The most promising point is "server is not trusted". There are ways to improve the credibility of your server but it depends on your server config, if you can use them. You mentioned in another thread that you use the PHP mailer plugin to send the emails from your Elgg site via Gmail. In this case you have no change to improve the credibility of your server because the emails are sent via Google and you can't influence the credibility. Instead you would need to use your own mail server on your own server (or webspace). Do you host your site on some webspace? In case you do, you can ask your hoster about ways to improve credibility, e.g. using the SPF framework, domain keys and setting up a valid PTR record.

    • Dear iionly,

      As per your suggestion I have changed the content of the verification email and now users are receiving the emails and this happened after I deactivated "PHPmailer" plugin. But, I am afraid as this is only a temporary solution.

      Have even asked Godaddy support team to resolve the issue and am waiting for their revert.

    I've looked at writing an OpenID server plugin based on earlier OpenID work (https://github.com/Elgg/openid_api and https://github.com/Elgg/openid_client). It's a low priority item for me. view reply

  • Do you want the user's link to always go to their list of blogs? Regardless, I think you want to register for elgg_register_entity_url_handler() for users. Something like: elgg_register_entity_url_handler('user', 'all',... view reply
  • Check to make sure it is using elgg_view_register_simplecache() in its start.php view reply
