New Member Email Notification

2008-06-14T15:09:19-06:00

Dear Expert,
Basically the Pmachine will automatically send email to every new member, wether admin rule the self activation or by activated by admin.

I have difficulty in finding how to change the content

This is the basic email to new member :
Header : Account Activated
Your account has been activated at: {sitename}

Name: {name}
Username: {username}

My question is :
How to add password such as:
password: {password}

Thank you all for help!! Please....

Add a cache for your more pages

2007-05-30T16:35:36-06:00

It ain’t simple, but it does work.

1) Get Lite.php from http://pear.php.net/package/Cache_Lite

2) Edit Lite.php and replace all instances of $id with $cid.

3) Upload Lite.php to your server directory and make sure it remains as Lite.php.

4) Create a directory named cache and CHMOD it to 777.

5) Edit your more.php file to add these lines at the beginning:

<?php
include("pm_inc.php");
require_once("Lite.php");

// set an ID for this cache
$cid = get_id($id, "1");

// set some variables
$options = array(
// cacheDir should be the absolute address of your files on your server**
// this will vary wildly depending on the server configuration
'cacheDir' => '/home/myaccount/mydomain/cache/',
'lifeTime' => 50
);

// create a Cache_Lite object
$objCache = new Cache_Lite($options);

// test if there exists a valid cache
if ($quote = $objCache->get($cid))
{ echo $quote; }
else
{
echo $quote;
$objCache->save($quote, $cid);
}
?>

**If you don’t know this, just comment out the last } in the code upload the file and run it one time, the error message will let you know :=) Copy the path and insert it into your more.php file, don’t forget to fix the broken line.

Your server needs the Pear module installed (it probably will be).

This probably won’t work if you are on a WinDoes server.

If you have multiple weblogs on your site, some tuning will be required :=)

Anyone know how to make posts automatically truncate?

2006-06-20T17:02:06-06:00

I would love to have our main page automatically truncate/limit the word count of long posts. The truncated post would end in a friendly “Read More” which would automatically link to the full posting.

Has anyone done this? And if so, are you willing to share your trick?

thank you

Printerfriendly

2006-03-10T01:42:00-06:00

I have attempted, for several weeks now, to create a printerfiendly page. I’ve read the tutorial, but to no avail…

I have no idea how to set up my templates, link to that page, and how to get my actual page to show up on the printerfriendly page.

Can someone please give me some steps on doing this in pMachine 2.4? It would be VERY much appreciated..

Thanks!

Single entry appearing in multiple weblogs?

2005-08-21T20:20:48-06:00

I tried a search on this question, but seemingly no one asked this question before, or I am phrasing it incorrectly. What I am looking to do is make a single entry that will appear in two different weblogs. Is that possible? Seems a simple request to me....
