Hi, I have a problem.

When my oxwall installation sends an email to a user for a friend request, the email contains an invalid link:

---

Dear USER1,

Here's the latest activity on Furry-Connect related to you:
21 hours ago

USER2 wants to be friends with you: https://www.mydomain.eu/INVALID_URI
Click here to view all requests.

Talk soon,
MySite, administration https://www.mydomain.eu/

---

... how to fix it?

any ideas? :)

Scroll down, see if it looks like this:

<p>
Dear {$receiver},
</p>
<p>
<a href="{$sender_url}">{$sender}</a> wants to add you as a friend on <a href="{$site_url}">{$site_name}</a>.
</p>
<p>
<a href="{$request_url}">Click here</a> to accept this request.
</p>
<p>
Thank you,<br />
Administration<br />
<a href="{$site_url}">{$site_name}</a>
</p>

What version of software you running? Worst case scenario you could always download the languages and overwrite them, somewhere something is confused. Seems like a language issue from here.

My language entry looks exactly like your example...
It's only shown in the TEXT-mail, btw... not in the HTML-mail.

for TEXT-mail it is:

Dear {$receiver},

{$sender} wants to add you as a friend on {$site_name}.

{$sender}'s profile: {$sender_url}
{$site_name}: {$site_url}

To accept this request go to {$request_url}

Thank you,
Administration
{$site_name}
{$site_url}

I'm running Oxwall 1.2.4 with the standard language file (just changed some entries for my community but not email related)

kaushik, I have rechecked on my own installation of Oxwall. Links within emails are coming in correct way and are leading to correct site pages:



This means that
1. either something is wrong with your mail server
2. or something is wrong with your mail client.

Try using gmail SMTP ( http://support.google.com/mail/answer/13287?hl=en#) and testing again.
Or
Try using another mail client.
