Greetings!
Please i used pyro to customize a Website for a client and whenever people register it will show redirect to an activation page,that they should enter their activation code,whereas the activation code is not sent to their email. Please any help will be highly appreciated.

It will be one of two things: Either your server is not sending the emails or the emails are ending up in the new user's spam box.

Have you tried sending emails from the contact form? If those don't come through (check your spam folder) then there's something wrong with your email sending. Perhaps you haven't configured the email settings in CP > Settings > Email?

Thanks for your reply! That was actually an eye opener, but to be candid i went to the settings i saw the option (sendmail,smtp,mail) i selected sendmail, and i tried submitting the contact form, and i later tried the rest,but this is the error report am getting

A Database Error Occurred

Error Number: 1366

Incorrect integer value: 'Firefox 9.0.1' for column 'sender_agent' at row 1

INSERT INTO default_contact_log (`name`, `email`, `subject`, `message`, `company_name`, `sender_agent`, `sender_ip`, `sender_os`, `sent_at`) VALUES ('femi paul', 'oladapopaul@rocketmail.com', 'testing', 'testing', 'positive', 'Firefox 9.0.1', '197.255.169.6', 'Windows XP', 1328037171)

Filename: /home/positipa/public_html/modules/contact/models/contact_m.php

Line Number: 30


or is there any further thing i need to do? But i believe a novice should be able to use CMS without experiencing any difficulty or going through learning difficult thing, and the video module is not working,it required a database table.

Thanks,will be waiting for your help. Bless you!

paullo: Yes a novice should be able to do everything without problems, but bugs are bugs and they happen. We didn't put them there on purpose wink

If the video module required a database that sounds like either A) installation didnt work or B) wasnt run, but that is beside the point.

Are you using 2.0.0 or 2.0.1? Did you clean install or upgrade from another version, if so, which version?
