Contact's Inviter MSN/Yahoo/Gmail & MORE Details »» | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
I just finished this for my website and had it tested, every thing seems working fine
except the basic design i made, hopefully someone would redesign it and submit it What is this ? Like major websites, they grew using Invite systems , and prompting their users to send invites to their own contact lists. This is a vbulletin clone, made as much simply as possible, to do its job I am not a designer, that will explain the simple tables and designs used. REQUIREMENTS : PLEASE PAY ATTENTION You need PHP COMPILED WITH CURL WITH SSL FOR THIS TO WORK and can open remote urls. The script works fine on many major hosts and custom configurations but the requirements cannot be bypassed. Demo can be "viewed" on http://www.tchatting.com/forum/inviter.php However, you need to be registered to test it and will send invites to my own forum. Features : Group Permissions , you can specify permissions for every group to be allowed to send invites or not. Imports contacts from hotmail, live, yahoo, mail, lycosmail , indiatimes, rediffmail and aol I have tested those mail successfully ( thanks for those who provided their mails to test upon as i didnt have time to register on all these sites ) Installation : Import 1 xml file Upload the rest to corresponding folders EDIT postage.php BEFORE uploading You will need to modify $subject = "you are invited to join us!"; $from = "NOTSPAM@YOURDOMAIN"; and optionally $message variable to suit your own liking I will try to support this as much as i can, to better help you please confirm with your host if curl with ssl is compiled at your host before asking. If your running on Major Host companies, mention their name perhaps other members could help too or i might know of. Thats it for now ! Be Kind , Click INSTALL ! If you appreciate this kindly reserve the copyright text, or contact me about branding free options. As its the first release of this addon, provide feedback to help improve this product. I will try to support it as much as i can but be aware that occasionally these mail providers change their structure, so there is no guarantees on working time. Here is a demo on my test board http://www.dotleb.org/upload/inviter.php This demo will NOT SEND MAIL OUT ! , it will import you contacts but will not send even if you click send ! ( we dont want inviting to a test board do we ! ) April 29th : Updated the zip file, for missing line in myhotmail.php resulting in not showing the send button for old hotmail style inboxes. April 30th : Luky added another redesigned template here In progress : Check invites against database to avoid inviting current users by Zia's suggestion May 3rd : Two changes were made a-) Moved all files with proper changes to folder /inviter/ in forum root ( this is due to the fact that even though most hosts do not require chmod but seems some are still having this problem, especially when writing yahoo temporary files, also this cleans up a little on your forum root . b-) Added a check array on emails against db, This will check emails that are being sent against your own database, thus if someone is inviting a person who already exist as a member, will not receive the invite email ! Technical details : The line $comma_separated = implode(",", $my_array); // you can change the , to another separator if you want You can also use the variable $comma_separated to print a warning in the invite_code2 template , for example Code:
The following list of emails did not receive your invitation because they are already members <center> $comma_separated <center> UPGRADE INSTRUCTIONS Delete all prior 11 php files on the forum root, and upload the new folder structure as inviter.php and postage.php to forum root, and the folder as /inviter/ No other changes are necessary ! If you want to keep your folder structure and just obtain the DB Check feature, just replace the postage.php file ! Godaddy Hosting and Wild West resold hosting Note : You will find pages loading and returning no result, that is because ythey use a curl proxy, for every file in the hack find Code:
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1); Code:
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1); curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_PROXYTYPE, CURLPROXY_HTTP); curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_PROXY,"http://proxy.shr.secureserver.net:3128"); MAY 30TH : First sorry for not supporting this as much as earlier i did but due to the busy incidents at lebanon and my actual job in a local newspaper department there was no time for personal hobbies . This update, with a special Thanks to The Bish who volunteered his ftp access to fix the Yahoo import error . The script itself had no problems, but due to different servers configurations the problems he faced could also be yours . Download and update your script with May-30 Project zip file ONLY IF all other scripts are working EXCEPT myyahoo.php ! Extra NOTES to avoid myyahoo.php errors : chmod folder inviter 777 chmod *.php files (inside the /invite/ folder ) 755 ( ie: myyahoo.php mygmail.php etc ) chmod *.txt files (inside the /invite/ folder ) 777 Another issue was noted when using VBSEO script is to EXCLUDE inviter.php & postage.php from vbseo config administration page ( you should know how to when using vbseo ) These steps has resolved the errors caused by yahoo importer when other importers worked but not yahoo !

as am confident as it works over many hosts that support the requirements, i cannot do any better working version for those who dont have the requirements.
Its technically impossible to replace these functions to access SSL page without those. However, for those having problems, with some scripts working but other mail scripts not working, these mean you have the requirements and this i can help with the other script. However i will need a volunteer or two , someone with (at least 1 working script) but with yahoo or gmail error for example, if volunteered his access (enough access to upload page or edit it on his same host) i might be able to help But without errors i cannot help really! as for Warning: curl_setopt() [function.curl-setopt]: CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION cannot be activated when in safe_mode or an open_basedir is set in /inviter/mygmail.php on line 57 The error is clear, u need to set safe_mode off ! |

Ok, here is the thing.
kgeenen, you were right, i did the edits with dreamweaver and now the confirmation page works. I was having problems with the new version so i installed the old one. Everything works great, but still, yahoo doesn't import the contacts. I'm getting the Send Email to Contacts button but no contacts list and if i i press it i get the postage.php error ( no contacts to send .. which is normal ) Anyway, i will use it as it is. Gmail & hotmail works, thats Ok for now. How do i change the default provider ? On inviter.php , instead of Hotmail to be default, i want GMail to be. Please ? |
