Hello.  I know you see this question lots, and believe me I have tried to resolve it now for two days by using these Forums and by using Google, but have not had any luck yet.  Hopefully you can assist.

I have tried this on two different WP installs, one in the root and the other in a sub-folder.

http://www.4-evercaptured.com  (Form @ http://4-evercaptured.com/?page_id=3)

http://www.4-evercaptured.com/portfolio (Form @ http://4-evercaptured.com/port…..?page_id=3)

Now, on both of these installs I had to manually create an ABSPATH.PHP file that looks like this, respectively:

ROOT INSTALL:   <?php $abspath = '/home/fourever/public_html/'; ?>

SUB INSTALL:   <?php $abspath = '/home/fourever/public_html/portfolio/'; ?>

Doing this step removed the error message saying something like:

"It appears that cforms was not able to create abspath.php in your cforms plugin folder. Please check file/folder permissions (plugins/cforms), then re-activate cforms.

If the problem persists, please create a file (using your preferred text editor) manually with the following content:

<?php $abspath = '/home/fourever/public_html/'; ?>

Save the file as abspath.php and ftp to your cforms folder."

So I was happy so far.  On the SUB FOLDER INSTALL, I continued to get an error message about changing the js/cforms.js file to say the following:

var sajax_uri = 'http://www.4-evercaptured.com/portfolio/wp-content/plugins/cforms/lib_ajax.php&#39;;

But unfortunately, I still continued to see the error message until I just clicked on the "REMOVE MESSAGE" box.  Then it was gone.

==========================

Now the problem I am having:

When I try to actually SEND a message, nothing seems to be sending.  I have tried a few different email accounts I have and none seem to be receiving any messages, and I am also not getting an Admin message.

I have already checked with the server provider, and I can use PHP's mail() function up to 100 times per day, and I know the site I have mentioned is not getting that type of traffic.

Am I missing something?

Thanks
Admin

try this in js/cforms.js

var sajax_uri = 'http://4-evercaptured.com/portfolio/wp-content/plugins/cforms/lib_ajax.php&#39;;

(your web server does not have a http://www.)

Ok, now half of it is working.  Getting there!  I get an ADMIN email telling me there is a MESSAGE from the form saying:

A comment from {NAME}

and it has all the proper information such as IP, who sent it, where it is supposed to go.

But the problem I have, depending on the type of email I use as the RECEIVER changes.

If I send to the same server the site is hosted at (i.e. XYZ at 4-evercaptured.com) I do not get ANY email to that account, just at the Admin account.

But if I use something like a GMAIL account, the receiver gets an email – it is just 100% blank.

I tried this method, but it did not make a difference.

 
 

Any ideas for me?

By the way.  I did contact the host, and they gave me a log if you think it will make sense to you.

the two options you mentioned would have been my only hope.

but since some email addresses seem to work, perhaps your local mail server filters out certain addresses (SPAM, blacklisted etc.)

are you using the cforms SMTP feature?

YES, changing the js/cforms.js was the solution to this problem! Works brilliantly!

Need to clear the cache though for it to work, otherwise it seems it's still not working…

Once again, thanks for your support Oliver and have a nice weekend!
