Mailing list module is doing everything it should but when a user clicks on the confirmation link, they get taken to the site but no new member shows up in the admin. You can try it out a feastoflittleitaly.com - the field is at the bottom of the page. I am running 1.8 with multiple site manager.

update: The confirmation link is going to http://feastoflittleitaly.com/?ACT=4&id=hdGBOp5Gio but needs to be going to http://feastoflittleitaly.com/index.php?ACT=4&id=hdGBOp5Gio to work. I think it has something to do with the htaccess generator. Any help here on this or should I post this in extensions for help on this?

Moved to tech support; I’m a bit confused. The Mailing List sign up form won’t auto register members, it just adds them to the mailing list.

The signup form will send an email out to the registrant. The registrant then clicks the confirmation link. The link that is sent to the user is not working because it does not contain index.php before the ? as illustrated in my previous post. I think I need the confirmation link that is sent to the user to have the index.php in the url but dont know how to make that happen.

jbcobbs,

Due to the varying nature of server environments, we can’t officially support the removal of index.php.  Can you please put it back in, and let’s test to see if it works.  However, it indeed seems to be the issue here.

It does work when you add index.php to the url.

It looks like this code creates the link in the email

'activation_url => $FNS->fetch_site_index(0, 0).$qs.'ACT='.$action_id.'&id;='.$code,

   
which returns this - http://feastoflittleitaly.com/?ACT=4&id=hdGBOp5Gio - is there something I can do to that bit of code to force it to display index.php

Adding the index.php code here fixes the issue as recommended in this post - http://ellislab.com/forums/viewthread/101112/#515390

'activation_url'    => $FNS->fetch_site_index(0, 0).'index.php'.$qs.'ACT='.$action_id.'&id;='.$code,

jbcobbs,

Glad you found a fix. Feel free to start a new thread if you have any more questions.
