X Forward

Dear,

I found this error code when i tried to activate this plugin:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting T_OLD_FUNCTION or T_FUNCTION or T_VAR or ‘}‘ in /home/jacks89/public_html/wp-content/plugins/postmaster/PMMailParser.php on line 11

I have exactly the same problem

Well I’ll be the third to say the same. I’ve got the same problem

Me too.

I have other problem. Plugin activated just fine. It works if I send only text. If I send attachments it posts a post with title only, no content. The debug text shows flollwing:
Warning: Missing argument 1 for PMMailParser::__construct(), called in /path/to/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/postmaster/postmaster.php on line 228
and then
Warning: htmlentities() [function.htmlentities]: charset `-8860’ not supported, assuming iso-8859-1 in /path/to/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/postmaster/postmaster.php on line 242

Forget it. Updated to development version from wordpress extend. Everything works.

Dear,

The problem solved, you need to use this plugin on PHP5.x , yesterday I use it on PHP4.X ..

Thanks jacksplit.  To get my host to use php5 by default, I had to modify the .htaccess file in the host’s root folder to include the text…

SetEnv DEFAULT_PHP_VERSION 5

I guess this is likely to vary from one hosting provider to another.

Thanks for the feedback guys. I tried to keep things PHP4 compatible, but it became too difficult in the end.

If anyone wants to identify the things that are not PHP4 friendly and send them my way, I’ll see what I can do about making an alternate version.

It seems with verizon, you get this message at the bottom of every new picture message:

This message was sent using the Picture and Video Messaging service from Verizon Wireless!

To learn how you can snap pictures and capture videos with your wireless phone visit http://www.verizonwireless.com/picture.

Note: To play video messages sent to email, QuickTime® 6.5 or higher is required.

What can we do to get rid of this message?

Thanks!

@Chris I’ve gotten few requests to add a feature that will strip that annoying VZW spam. Look for this ability in version 2.2.0, which is in the works.

Heres another quick suggestion that I have been playing with trying to get it to work.

I use permalinks and the archive section throughout my site.

I’m trying to get it so $post_title = $post_name

I can’t get it to enter into the database like that.

Also, the other issue may be the dashes in between spaces, ya know?

Thanks again!

Hi in my blog I am using Postmaster 2.1.0 . I would like to know how should I configure the email account to which I have to email to get my blog published. I have successfully installed and updated the configuarations for attachments however I need to know how to use Postmaster 2.1.0. Thanks

@Rajesh

The email address you use to publish to your blog should be a plain POP3 email address.

The only real restriction is that the incoming mail server does not use a secure connection (SSL, etc). This is due to a restriction in the POP3 class that WordPress uses to retrieve your emails.

When I get a chance I’ll look into that class and see if I can get secure connections working. But for now, you can’t use Gmail because it requires secure connections.

Hope that helps.

Hello,

since the new version neither the text nor the image of my mail is shown in my blog. Only the title. Is there somebody who can help me ?

Nadir.

@Nadir

Did you make sure to backup and replace the wp-mail.php file? It is found in your WordPress install root directory.

If you do not replace the existing wp-mail.php with the one that comes with the PostMaster distribution, the plugin will not work correctly.

I did all exactly like it’s written in the readme. But nothing helps. Any Idea ?

Now I switched back to PostMaster 2.0 and everythings works again.

BTW: I’m using WP 2.7.1

@Brett

My questions is still not answered. I would like to know how should I configure my POP3 email id into the settings of Postmaster. Where does it asks for the POP3 email id and when I need to post a blog by email to which email account should I send the contents of my blog. Thanks for your patience and support Brett

I’m having a couple issues with PostMaster.

1) Posts have a title, but no slug for the url.
2) Images are not proportionally resized. Example: 1000x700 image gets resized to 500x500 squished.

Thanks for your work.

@Rajesh

You don’t configure the email address in the PostMaster settings. Go to Settings->Writing and you’ll see a section to enter email info for “Post Via Email”.

After you’ve set that, the plugin should work.

@Rajesh:
You need to go to Settings->Writing and fill out the information for email updates. You will need mail server, login name, password, port and default blog category. Make sure you have a distinct email for updates via email/phone because anything sent to that email will show up in your blog.

@Jon:
I am working on this separately to try and get this to work. I will repost here if I get it to work before he updates the script. I will also check the image resizer.

Verizon Users: I used the php function STRSTR to remove the spam on the bottom of our posts. It requires some manual updating as I am not that familiar with this script. You need to edit a total of 3 files.

@Jon

I don’t have a solution for issue 1, but for issue 2 try setting the resize height (or width) to 0 in the plugin settings. That should cause the aspect of your images to be maintained during resizing.

Ex.
Original image size 1000x700, set resize to 500x0. The resulting image will be 500px wide with height proportional to new width.

@Brett

Thanks. The resize setting 500x0 worked.

FYI, Page slug issue.
Post shows on homepage, but title href points to domain.com/2009/25/

If I edit the post, I can see that the url for the post is domain.com/2009/25//

Chris, I tried doing the settings in the writing area and sent an email to the id but it is not appearing in my website http://www.thefashionfactory.in
