No emails after registering

    I have the same problem on another website. I had tried in every way but I still don’t an email when someone registers!!! So I have no way of knowing if someone had registered unless I manually check. The users are also in the dark because they don’t get an email after registration.

    I really like the plugin and bought the image extension also. But only this feature is killing me. I had tried changing the php session from database sessions. No luck. The header text message is displayed from the Thank you page, but I don’t think the shortcode [pdb_signup_thanks] gets executed. ANy help would be highly appreciated. I have a large convention coming up and I am out of ideas.

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    OK, it is possible to set up an alternate method for completing the signups if the sessions are not working. I assume you are using the latest version of Participants Database, 1.8.1.

    You can use this filter to enable the alternate method. This line of code should be inserted in the main plugin script participants-database.php, at about line 527, where there is this line:

    self::$session = new PDb_Session();

    put this line of code in after that one:

    add_filter( 'pdb-record_id_in_get_var', function () { return true; } );

    Save it and test your signup form. If everything else is configured, this will allow the submission to complete by adding the new record ID to the URL after the signup is submitted.

    This will be superceded in the next release with a setting that you can use to invoke this instead of having to edit the plugin.

    I am getting a syntax error:

    Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘&’ in /home/bridg136/public_html/wp-content/plugins/participants-database/participants-database.php on line 527

    You probably can’t just copy and paste from a web page, it has to be plain text or you will end up pasting in spurious characters. Check it to make sure it looks exactly like the code in the post above before you save it.
