Hi, ever since I upgraded from version 6 to version 7 I have noticed a very intermittent problem with replying to Private messages.

I am going to do a little testing with a friend on this, but I have only noticed it with replying and I have not noticed any error message.

The only indication that it has not been sent is when you are expecting a reply and it never comes. Also I dont think you get a sent message. There is no error message that I have noticed, but I will try and test this with a friend.

The only problems I have ever had with PHPfusion is that my FTP never seems to be 100%, so it could be a problem with the initial FTP installation, but that doesnt explain why its intermittent.

If anyone has any ideas or things to check please let me know :)

Have you re-uploaded the messages.php files already?
Do the messages appear in the outbox?

Ive tried to reproduce this, ping ponging pm's between myself and another. The only time we had a problem was when our mail box was full. Im going to monitor this and see if it continue, but is there a way of making the inbox full message more prominent ?

The messages do not appear in the outbox when the other mailbox is full.

No, i have not re-uplodaded the messages.php. I cant see why it would only fail sometimes if it was the php script .....

Ive tried long messages, special format of messages etc etc, the only failure is on inbox full.

When the recipient's mailbox is full, the message won't be sent and it won't be placed in your outbox either. But you should receive a warning that the message was not sent because the recipient's mailbox is full.

You do get a message, but it is a very small, blackk text message displayed at the top of the screen that you would get if it was sent successfuly. It does not stand out or highlight in any way the fact that it is full. Is there a way to make the font bigger and a different colour so the message would jump out more at the user ?

go to messages.php or go to messages.php in local and find the message

(if in messages.php in Root find the Local)

and add <b> brackets </b> around them, or color also

Hmmmm, modifying the main script doesn't seem like a good solution as it will be overwritten with the next patch/upgrade ....
or is this the standard thing to do ?

Next upgrade wont happen for awhile, and I doubt upgrades will be for messages.php as we work more on security upgrades.

but if you dont want to mess around with messages.php

go to your root host and then go to Locale and then go to messages.php in your Local file.

then $locale['628'] itll say
Code Download source
$locale['628'] = "Unable to send the Private Message. The user's inbox is full.";


turn that to something like
Code Download source
$locale['628'] = "<font color="red"><b>Unable to send the Private Message. The user's inbox is full.</b></font>";
