Hi Paul,

This should’ve been fixed in the previous version. Odd. Will look into it again.

Cheers

Hi Jeff,

I have just signed up successfully.

The temporary emails won’t be causing an issue (I’ve had successful signups from sites with temporary emails running into the thousands). I think what is happening in your instance is people are clicking on the link to view the PDF and then clicking on it again at a later date.

My advice is rather than link to the PDF, link to a page on the site with a link to the PDF. State on that page to bookmark this page if you wish to access it again.

Hope that helps ??

The plugin doesn’t send welcome emails, it only sends confirmation emails.

I suspect you have written the email in the admin saying “welcome to my website”, when in fact you should be writing “please confirm your subscription by clicking the link below”.

Hi Jeff,

I’m not sure – I’ve installed the plugin on a server and tried subscribing and getting subscribed okay.

Are people clicking the same link twice? Are you deleting the “Temporary emails” a lot (like multiple times a day)

What’s your account? I can test it my end.

Hi Manoj,

The latest version of WP Email Capture (due out on Monday) does allow you to use both inputs as required fields.

Kind Regards

Rhys

Hi All,

Right the issue is the way in which the plugin works.

Basically there are two tables, a temp members & a registered members. When a user fills in an email address, it goes into the “temp members” table. When they click on the link they are moved from the temp members into the registered members. As they are moved from temp to registered they are deleted from the temp members table. This is why you are getting the “wrong confirmation code”.

The users already present protects against users registering more than once to a site. This is why when you fill in the form again you get a “user already present”.

A way around this is to add to the confirmation page instructions on bookmarking said page, so they can return to it at a later date.

Hope that helps.

Hi All,

I did resolve this, but my reply got chewed up by a spam bot, so when I posted it, I marked resolved but the reply didn’t show.

Bit busy now, but will aim to reply again. Bit annoyed as it’s making me look daft and you’re not getting the responses I posted, and nobody seems able to help ??

Hi,

The email addresses are stored in the database. No files are stored on the server. Providing your database and your WordPress logins are secure, then they should be fine :).

Hope that helps!

Rhys

Hi,

What are you trying to do – just out of interest? Do you want both inputs to be required fields?

Rhys

Hi Cladfrades,

I had just tried this, and hit your subscription page fine.

Try with another email address. The “wrong confirmation code” only appears if that confirmation code doesn’t appear anywhere in the temp_members table in the database.

Use the plugin WP Mail SMTP (do a Google Search – I can’t paste links for some reason), and that should solve your issues.

I am looking into adding a feature for this. However the code you need to look at is in lines 38 of dashboard.php.

Should be back up & working now ??

Apologies, thought it was a bit odd when uploading them the translation flagged up.

Will add it back tonight ??

This has been updated in the latest version.
