I seem to be getting an invalid link being sent by the activation email.

Code:

/modules.php?name=Your_Account

there is no

or anyother info after the Your_Account part?

Ive tried a number of fixes to get rid of this but none of them seem to change it?

Ive changed servers so the only thing i can think of is maybe a different dir structure?

my root dir is "mainwebsite_html" but this is just a virtual link on the server to /var/www/html/

so all my files are loacated inside /var/www/html/

ive tried every dir i can think of

and the email still comes thru as /modules.....

Id simply use the no email hack and be done but my your_account index.php is already changed alot,so i cant just overwrite it.

Can anyone suggest a fix for this? ITS DRIVING ME MAAAAD Crying or Very sad

First off I would restore the defauly index.php just to verify that it works correctly. If it does, then you know, for sure, that it is in your modifications.

In modules/Your_Account/index.php under function finishNewUser you should have a line similar to:

Code:

$finishlink = "$nukeurl/modules.php?name=$module_name&op=activate&username=$username&check_num=$check_num";

and $nukeurl should be in the function's global line, if that checks ok then your site url in admin preferences might be empty.

Thanks for the help Wink

I checked my index.php file in your_account and it was wrong

you said it should be this

$finishlink = "$nukeurl/modules.php?name=$module_name&op=activate&username=$username&check_num=$check_num";

mine was only this portion
/modules.php?name=$module_name

ive added in the correct line from a fresh index file but now when a user registers it send the correct link but it doesnt add my

to the front?

If the finishlink line was incorrect as i mentioned it is very likely that $nukeurl is missing from the function's global line:
global $stop, $EditedMessage, $adminmail, $sitename, $Default_Theme, $user_prefix, $dbi, $storyhome, $module_name, $nukeurl;

OK now im just choked! its always the simplest things Sad

seems there was an extra character in $nukeurl variable
so it was searching for $nukeurlm instead of $nukeurl
