a message “undefined tag ‘parent’”.

Do the tests pass? What’s your template code look like?

Hi John,

I had the same problem. I tried to update my page_context.rb manually
and
it didn’t work. It was only when I simply replaced my page_context.rb
with
the one posted at the radiant trunk that I got it right.

Thanks Jose, for the tips. Now it works with mine too after replacing
the file, and now stuck up with the contact form in radiant. i dont know
how to configure the mailer behavior. Any help…

Hi John,

I don’t have the mailer working. Can’t figure it out yet. What I’ve done
is 1) Installesd php form generator http://phpformgen.sourceforge.net/
2) Generated my contact form.
3) Embedded the html form on a Radiant page.

I’ll use this solution on the meantime while I get the mailer working.

For many people the configuration mailer behavior is just too cryptic
and obfuscated. It only makes sense to have a page in the admin
interface to configure the mailer behavior by just filling a form.
This is a very important (if not the most important) feature to some
people, I think we as a group should take a stab at it and have the
project leader merge it into the source tree.

Best.

Hi Jose,

mailer_behavior works fine for me. i dont know about php much, but its
very simple to work with radiant_mailer_behvior, you can find the readme
file inside plugin folder with which its easy to configure the mailer,
3 things you have to concentrate.

  • body part of contact-us page,
  • config part of contact-us page and
  • certain changes has to be made with the “…/config/environment.rb”
    or “…/config/environment/production.rb or development.rb”.

on modifying and configuring these 3 things, will enable the feature of
mailer_behavior for you website.

John,

I’ve followed the step by step provided recently in the mailing list and
with the set up as explained I still got server errors; connection
refused, login errors, and something about Auth. I really don’t have the
time to focus on the mailer when it’s quicker to embedd a contact form
that calls a php script that does exactly the same thing.

I agree with you in that the mailer behavior is crucial for any web page
to compete. If the mailer comes in Radiant’s core it would be a great
improvement. And I would definitely use Radiant as my default web
developing tool.

Please know that I offer my non-programming help, perhaps for testing
and
documentation.

Jose.
