[mod release ]Recommend this story to a friend

Works wonders Spikey! 😀

I worded the recommendation emails differently through the tellafriend.php file and it just works like a charm. The great thing is that it retains the warning since the warning code is part of the URL when you visit the page. Kudos!

Oh and.. thanks for the thank you! hehe

your welcome  😀 I took a look at your thankyou.htm and it looks good (better than the one I rushed for the mod lol) if you like I could  update the mods files to include the thank you picture that you used in yours ( again would give credit) tho if you perfer me not to use the image then I'll make one for it when I have more time

You're very welcomed to it! 🙂

thanks!  😀

I will update the zip file and post again when thats been done all you will need to do is reupload the files and make a size change to the popup that appears in the storyindex reference

I'll pm you specifics if you perfer Jacynthe  as you will only need to reupload some of the files and edit a bit of the code or if you perfer you can just reupload the whole thing and redo the addition to the storyindex.tpl (which has been changed a little)

I modified the size of the image this morning.... it went from 250px high to 150px high because I didn't need all that whitespace... and changing to 150px actually allowed the whole message to fit in your window size... I am so productive right BEFORE work. It's after that that things get tricky. LOL

Just PM me the specifics when you have the chance and I'll correct everything that needs correcting in my installation. 🙂

Thanks Spikey!

ok the mod has been updated with a small change  though it looks like most have you havant tried it out yet so you wont have to edit anything as you'll be following the mod for the first time lol

Jacynthe  yours will be ok  so no need to edit it I only did what you did to the thankyou page and put a notice saying I made the feature on the form submit page and your welcome, glad you like my work 🙂

updated link is above in my first post!

Okay, I installed this and tested it, and the email part works fine, except for the fact that it doesn't include the story link.

It's like yourtellafriend.php file is not parsing the REFURL or doesn't have it. Make sure you can see that in the file.

$ttext = "
Hi,

$_POST[name], whose email address is $_POST[email] thought you may be interested in this fanfiction story. 

$_POST[refurl]

I don't know what's going on. this is that section of the tellafriend.php, also the admin email doesn't list the url either. Is there something else I need to turn on for it to grab urls?

";

Only thing I can think of is that the following lines aren't working:

<? $refurl = $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER']; ?>
<? print $refurl;?>

I was going to suggest that it was due to something in your servers config but I just tried this out at your site  and its working fine now...

email below for you...

How odd, it's still not working for me. Maybe Gmail is eating the link? Either that, is it not FireFox compatible or is there something that should be checked in Firefox in order to grab the link?

Im thinking Gmail is eating the link because I just tried it again via Firefox for you and its working fine

again email attached below so you can see 🙂

I don't know. I am receiving it from you via Gmail just fine. I guess as long as it works for others, it doesn't matter if it doesn't work for me. *chuckles*

I haven't downloaded/seen the file yet, but just in case you haven't — I'd highly recommend you to sanitise the data being sent directly (that is $_POST).
