Looks like the problem may be the server / colo doesn't like me sending out e-mails with 1300+ BCC's. I sent it to the admins (6 users) and the e-mail came through fine. I send a test to the whole list, no luck.

Looks like I'll have to setup batch e-mailing (i.e. like 250 per e-mail or something).

Quiky: any way to find out if this is a server config thing or a ISP thing? And what the limit per e-mail is?

Quiky · July 19th, 2007, 2:16 PM

Well, the forums use gmail hosted, but the other emails should be using the internal postfix server. I will check the config in a bit to see where the issue is..

Is there a way to make the forum not automatically replace text with emoticons? It keeps fucking up my posts and some URLs. I actually use the colon and semicolon in punctuation (I know, weird).

Check the "Disable smilies in text" button.

SMTP? There's a plugin I can install to make WordPress use SMTP rather than mail().

Where is that? I don't see it in my "Options" in the User CP.

Devon · July 22nd, 2007, 10:38 AM

^It is an option at the bottom of the screen when posting a new post.

Not sure if this has been mentioned before probably has but I am not receiving e-mail updates to my Gmail account, they don't end up in spam just not being received. Haven't for months.

Is this specific to me or a site wide issue? If so when is the ETA on a fix?

Keep up the good work!!

alda · December 2nd, 2007, 4:28 PM

why am i transferred to this page (attached image) after just a second or two being on the search page (the search page for episodes on the main site, not the forums)?
the url stays the same (http://www.finalgear.com/epsearch/) but there's just a white screen with a tiny tiny smileyface in the top left corner... the smileyface is not copyable. it's a photo/picture/gif-file (will attach that one as well)
why is it so?

I'm using opera 9.24.8816 by the way.

in IE it works fine, but in Opera I keep getting that stupid blank page... even if I'm fast enough so i press search before the screen appears, after a second or two of the search-results-page it appears again... And pressing "back" to go back doesn't help either...

Viper007Bond · December 2nd, 2007, 8:39 PM

You should consider using a non-shitty browser. images/smilies/wink.gif

Seriously, Opera sucks. Use Firefox. images/smilies/mellow.gif

But anyway, I'll see if I can figure out what the problem is.

EDIT: Fixed now? Seems to be.

LeMans GTR · December 15th, 2007, 2:33 PM

Is there away I can make the post screen show just the image text instead of the image because everytime I post more than two images, I can't type under the images anymore

Thanks in advance.

Thats a forum issue. When posting, click this image:

It should default to the non-WYSIWYG editor if I have it set up right. I hate that thing.

You may have your options different though. You can change your preferences for that in your UserCP.

LeMans GTR · December 16th, 2007, 12:34 PM

Thanks again for the advice Quiky and Viper images/smilies/smile.gif
