Official CB Public Mail thread

:woohoo: The next version of Public Mail is here! :woohoo:

Here is a list of changes in version 1.4 of Public Mail:

• Fixed Swedish language file that was not UTF-8 encoded (thanks Sven Jungmar).
• Fixed language load to strict Joomla 3.0 (also comptable with 2.5).
• Fixed duplicate return user in send mail function (thanks Patrick from itvault.com).
• Fixed the stripslashes problem (can result in other errors for other users on other hosts).
• Removed index.php from action in form as some Joomla 3 sites had problems with this.
• Rewrote the code for sending mails, for easier future maintinance.
• Converted all emails to be in HTML format - this should also solve the issues with '/r/n'.
• Improved many texts and tooltips in configuration.
• Added full support for Joomla 3.1 (and 2.5, 3.0).
• Added FAQ text about how emails are sent in the plugin configuration and installer description text.
• Added Bootstrap class btn-tag to form submit button.
• Added feature of blocking IP's from sending emails (including text definition in language files).
• Added feature of sending emails from the site instead of the individual users (set as reply adress).
• Added SEF URL support (JRoute).

Please download it here or on the Joomla extensions site, or on Joomlapolis.com

Please test is and report any problems back to me. It needs testing!

Also please make a translation of the plugin and send the file to me.

Thanks Kampp.
Installed and works fine, with one minor comment;

The setting for "Show email address in frontend?:" will show e-mailaddress to all even if I set it to "Show only to registered users".

That is exactly what we want so I would realy appreciate if this could be fixed.


Thanks for a very useful CB-plugin.


Best Regards

Sven

Thanks, I will fix that today.

Did you get the chance to test the new feature of sender email that can be changed to site instead of the user?

Also is the /r/n problem fixed for you now? Do you reciee the email in html format?

Here is a fixed version of the 1.4 version of Public Mail with the fix Sven wrote about.

Hope you all get a chance to fix the new feature, of the site being the sender? I just need one test to confirm it from one of you.

Hi,

I tested the option "Use Joomlas mail name and email" in Joomla 2.5.10 and Joomla 3.1.1.

In Joomla 2.5.10:
The e-mails are sent from the sites e-mail (correct), but when I reply it doesn't use the sender's e-mail address, but the site's e-mail.

In Joomla 3.1.1:
The "From" address is a mix of the site e-mail and the sender's e-mail (see attachment)when replying:

"Site name" <site_email.domain> sender_email.domain

Also when using the return key on the keyboard to make line breaks in the message they are shown as \r\n:

"hej,\r\n\r\ntest"

Hej

• I use the visitors e-mail as sender but the site e-mail is showing.
• Also as martinmg mentioned the /rn are still there.
• In the copy sent to visitor the receivers Username is shown in the mail. Should be Name instead.
• The e-mail is coded as html.
• The setting for showing e-mail address in the form is now obeying the setting. Thanks.

Unfortunately I installed it at my live site so I hope for a quick fix.
Those /rn are like ghosts for my users, they appear again every now and then.
