Important Kunena 1.5.10 Withdrawn, unofficial Kunena 1.5.10-2 HOTFIX

To get some debug messages during posting put this file into components/com_kunena/template/default directory:


Its purely meant debugging purposes only.. Please do not use this on live sites (where users are not allowed to see each others email addresses)

Results will look like this:

Configuration (1, 1, 1, hold=0)
Author: admin
Subscribers: admin, subs
* User mode (0, 1, 0)... Sending email to [email protected]
* User subs (1, 0, 0)... Sending email to [email protected]

Please also add forum permissions (everyone/registered only/special, which?)..


Fist line tells configuration options (subscriptions, moderators, admins and if message needs approval).
Second line is author of the post, who will not receive emails.
Third line lists all people who have been subscribed to the topic.
List will show who will receive emails. If you see only half of the message, email address is invalid.

Happy bug hunting! Please report unexpected findings to me.

To remove those debug messages, just install Kunena again (or copy over the original file).

Regarding to Karma mis-location:

It seems that I forgot to commit change to components/com_kunena/template/kunena.forum.css line 781 (to last item in #Kunena span.msgkarma:

float: right;

If I post as a global moderator and Super Administrator I do not see any debug output, though the normal user "atestuser" is subscribed to the thread and should receive a notification - could this indicate that something is not being processed at all (including the debug code)?

If I post as a normal user I see the debug output, which tells me it's sending a mail notification to me as a moderator:

Configuration (1, 1, 0, hold=0)
Author: atestuser
Subscribers: trouble, atestuser
* User trouble (1, , 1)... Sending email to [email protected]

I've posted from a second normal user with the user level registered, and again not seeing the debug output!
I've just posted from the first test user "atestuser" and again not seeing the debug information, whereas I did before (above).
It all seems very strange.

Just wondering how this is progressing?

I've noticed that when there are no moderators, and Kunena is configured not to e-mail Administrators, I do not see any debug output - when it should surely produce debug output for the subscribed users!

When I have Kunena configured to e-mail Administrators, a test post gives the following debug output:
trouble, stephen, and david are all Administrators. The two subscribers, atestuser and atestuser2 are noted as subscribers, but no e-mail is sent to atestuser! Could this explain why there is absolutely no debug output when I configure Kunena not to e-mail Administrators?



When I post to the thread, again the two regular users "atestuser" and "atestuser" are found correctly as subscribers, but not e-mailed! The two other Administrators are mailed because I have Kunena configured to e-mail Administrators:

okay, i tested it again and sadly its still not working correct. i do have the same error messages like trouble.

1. my admins/mods do not get informed by mail (just one mail is sent to the admin mail (backend))
2. even if i recieved yesterday ONE mail (as a registered user "test", when somebody else posted) my test user didnt get anything today, when i posted as an admin or mod or reg. user.
3. Question: if i downgrade to kunena 1.59 (i never used 1.59 so i dont know), are those errors fixed??

Yes, if you downgrade to Kunena 1.5.9 the mail function will work without issues.
