Hey, i am having problems with my login system sending the emails to people, i am unsure of what could possibly be wrong, i am no PHP whiz, i downloaded this script from a website, got it working after i experienced a few errors, but i can't for the life of me figure out how to make it send an email, i know in the install file that sets up the settings, it asked me if i iwanted to use SMTP for emails, i said no, because i didn't know SMTP port or username or anything like that, could this be the problem, that SMTP is disabled in the PHP script settings? or should it still work? i dont actually get an error when it attempts to send the email, it says it's sent and i should check my inbox, but i never recieve the mail, any help would be appreciated, and if you need any other info, just ask, below is the PHP code i use for the register.php page which contains the send mail code.
PHP:
<?php
require_once('settings.php');
if ( array_key_exists ( '_submit_check', $_POST ) )
{
if ( $_POST['username'] != '' && $_POST['password'] != '' && $_POST['password'] == $_POST['password_confirmed'] && $_POST['email'] != '' && valid_email ( $_POST['email'] ) == TRUE )
{
if ( ! checkUnique ( 'Username', $_POST['username'] ) )
{
$error = 'Username already taken. Please try again!';
}
elseif ( ! checkUnique ( 'Email', $_POST['email'] ) )
{
$error = 'The email you used is associated with another user. Please try again or use the "forgot password" feature!';
}
else {
$query = $db->query ( "INSERT INTO " . DBPREFIX . "users (`Username` , `Password`, `date_registered`, `Email`, `Random_key`) VALUES (" . $db->qstr ( $_POST['username'] ) . ", " . $db->qstr ( md5 ( $_POST['password'] ) ).", '" . time () . "', " . $db->qstr ( $_POST['email'] ) . ", '" . random_string ( 'alnum', 32 ) . "')" );
$getUser = "SELECT ID, Username, Email, Random_key FROM " . DBPREFIX . "users WHERE Username = " . $db->qstr ( $_POST['username'] ) . "";
if ( $db->RecordCount ( $getUser ) == 1 )
{
$row = $db->getRow ( $getUser );
$subject = "Activation email from " . DOMAIN_NAME;
$message = "Dear ".$row->Username.", this is your activation link to join our website. In order to confirm your membership please click on the following link: <a href=\"" . APPLICATION_URL . "confirm.php?ID=" . $row->ID . "&key=" . $row->Random_key . "\">" . APPLICATION_URL . "confirm.php?ID=" . $row->ID . "&key=" . $row->Random_key . "</a> <br /><br />Thank you for joining";
if ( send_email ( $subject, $row->Email, $message ) ) {
$msg = 'Account registered. Please check your email for details on how to activate it.';
}
else {
$error = 'I managed to register your membership but failed to send the validation email. Please contact the admin at ' . ADMIN_EMAIL;
}
}
else {
$error = 'User not found. Please contact the admin at ' . ADMIN_EMAIL;
}
}
}
else {
$error = 'There was an error in your data. Please make sure you filled in all the required data, you provided a valid email address and that the password fields match one another.';
}
}
