We use google apps to host our mail and I've read through the posts on here already regarding that set up. I don't think it's google apps that's tripping things up. I get this same error message with any email set up I try.  Here's what I've done to try and narrow down the problem - all of these result in the same  error "could not connect to MailStore"

Used emails hosted through GoDaddy and Hostmonster.
Tried both IMAP and POP3 settings
Turned on and off SSL
Cleaned the email accounts I was testing (i.e. they only had one or two emails in the account)
To see if a different error would populate, purposefully used the wrong password.

Can anyone suggest what I might need to look for? I'm not sure I know what the rest of the backtrace means....

Thanks!


texts: How to allow multiple values on a civicrm contextual filter in drupal views

texts:
I have a drupal view that shows aggregated totals  grouped by user from civi contribution pages.

The view has a contextual filter that takes the contribution page id as an argument.

The view works well if I pass in one argument.

I would like to be able to pass in multiple arguments, so, display contributions from contribpageID1 AND contribpageID2.

On contextual filters with drupal fields I am able, in the "more section", to select "Allow multiple values". This option isn't available on the CiviCRM Contributions: Contribution Page field.

Is this a limitation of the civi views integration? Or a setting I can't find.

Below is the query being run:

SELECT SUM(civicrm_contribution.total_amount) AS civicrm_contribution_total_amount
FROM
{civicrm_contribution} civicrm_contribution
WHERE (( (civicrm_contribution.contribution_page_id = '12') )AND(( (civicrm_contribution.financial_type_id IN  ('1')) AND (civicrm_contribution.contribution_status_id IN  ('1')) AND (civicrm_contribution.is_test = '0') AND (civicrm_contribution.receive_date >= '2014-12-31 00:00:00') AND (civicrm_contribution.receive_date <= '2015-12-31 00:00:00') )))
LIMIT 20 OFFSET 0

On line 5, I want it to say ..._page_id = '12,15')...

Aggregation is turned on but the option is not there when this is turned off either.


texts: Title says it all: How can we pre-populate contacts into Caldera forms via query params


texts: CiviEvent backing out of contact change from dedupe rule

texts:
Is there a way to "back out" a change caused by a dedupe rule on an event administratively?

I see two records with the same name, Person A.
I have had a dedupe rule on an Event that was incorrect.  I have changed the rule back to a reserved rule that is working OK.  The custom dedupe rule was supposed to use Name, Email, and Phone but obviously isn't working.  The reserved rule just uses Name and Email.
One person (Person A) registered for an event and it inadvertently edited someone else's contact record (Person B).
Somehow this also changed Person B's WordPress User email.
Person B got an email that their WordPress email was changed to Person A's email, and to contact an administrator if this was not correct.  Person B contacted me.

If there is any method to avoid having to ask both contacts for all their information again to confirm, that would be great.

I am not familiar on how to view the logs for the activities, so if the information would be there it would be great to know how to view the logs.

Thanks,
Michele

texts: Check for Matching Contacts no longer gives an option to merge

texts:
I'm not sure which version this behavior changed in.  When we edit a contact, and change the information so it matches another contact and click on the Check for Matching Contacts button, we get a pop-up that says, "Similar Contact Found", but below, it no longer gives us an options to immediately merge those two contacts.  It used to have this option, very easy for us to merge with.  Instead, admins have to save, leave the screen, and go into the Contacts menu to try and find the duplicate contacts.

I have tried this on the sandbox, and it is missing there as well.  See screenshot here: https://imgur.com/m11rScH

Any way to get this back?

texts: Implementing tokens and tokenValues hooks for Event custom field

texts:
I'm trying to implement a hook for inserting Event custom fields into Scheduled reminders; however, I'm not a developer so I'm really not sure what the code needs to look like. The custom field is custom_115 (Learning Materials link), which I know is the correct field as I located it using the API Explorer. The problem for me has been the hooks; not really understanding the structure. I'm running CiviCRM 5.7.2 on WordPress. I've pasted the following code (which I pieced together from various sources, and partly guessed) into my functions.php file but I know it's wrong and I don't know how to get it to work:

<?php
/* CiviCRM token addition for custom_115 */
function civicrm_tokens(&$tokens) {
  $tokens['event'] = array(
    'event.custom_115' => 'Custom 115',
    );
}

/**
* Populates a token named "custom_115" with the value from a custom field
* (id 115) for use in Scheduled Reminders
* Implements hook_civicrm_tokenValues().
*/

function civicrm_tokenValues(&$values, $cids, $job = null, $tokens = array(), $context = null) {
static $events = array();

  if (is_numeric($cids)) {
    // We're being called by CRM/Core/BAO/ActionSchedule.php:465
    // Params are structured differently than they're supposed to be, but we
    // can work with it. See https://civicrm.stackexchange.com/questions/3573/can-tokenvalue-hooks-be-used-in-scheduled-reminder-emails

if ($event_id = CRM_Utils_Array::value('event.event_id', $values)) {
  // We've been passed an event ID

  if (!array_key_exists($event_id, $events)) {
    // We haven't looked up the custom field value yet

    // Fetch the custom field value from the database
    $event = civicrm_api3('Event', 'getsingle', array(
      'sequential' => 1,
      'return' => "custom_115",
      'id' => $event_id,
    ));

  $val = CRM_Utils_Array::value('custom_115', $event);

  // Keep this value in memory to use with the other event participants
  $events[$event_id] = $val;

  } else {
    // We stored the value previously
    $val = $events[$event_id];
  }

  $values['event.custom_115'] = $val;
  }

 }
}
?>

I'm assuming that if it is set up properly, I'll be able to locate "Custom_115" as an option in the Tokens list - is that right? Any help/advice would be appreciated. Thanks


texts: If membership status is 'Cancelled' get 'Lifetime' error message when trying to renew

texts:
I have seen this a couple of times in the past and wonder if others have seen it specifically linked to the membership status of 'cancelled'.

When a member tries to renew a membership that has been cancelled they get the error message:'You already have a lifetime membership and cannot select a membership with a shorter term.' regardless of their initial membership type.

The work around is to manually amend the status of the membership to expired, but this is obviously not a good work flow and frustrating for both users and admin.

Also possibly related:

texts:
I recently took over the donor thank you letter process at the organization I work for and saw that Civi has the ability to create thank you letters for donors.

The organization I work for has 5 separate funds that members can contribute to. We want to be able to be able to send an automated thank you letter to contributors that reflects all of their contributions.

Is there a way to add an "if...then" sort of logic to these letters?

For instance:

Member One donates $10 to Fund A
Member Two donates $10 each to Fund
B, C, and D
Member Three donates $10 each to Fund B and E

We want to be able to automate letters that would say:

Dear Member One, thank you for contributing $10 to Fund A.
Dear Member Two, thank you for contributing $10 to Fund B, $10 to Fund C, and $10 to Fund D.
and so on

I see tokens that auto populate for name, date, and address, but not for our individual funds themselves. I also don't see a way of specifying most recent contribution -- only total all-time or total last year.

Are there tokens I can use that will automatically pull from a member's contributions? Something like:

  Dear {firstname}, Thanks for donating {Fund A donation amount} to {Fund A}.

Or is this functionality not possible on Civi?

Thanks!


texts: Why don't contributions (for membership) paid using PayPal, complete and send receipts?

texts:
Using Joomla 3.8.5 and CiviCRM 4.7.29.
a membership transaction is entered in CiviCRM and paid via PayPal. The transaction completes in PayPal and an IPN is sent to CiviCRM.

Note Paypal IPN log shows 200.

I can tell from the civicrm_log or civicrm_contact if they changed any of their contact info, but what if I want to know just if they visited the page even if they didn't change anything?  Or if they changed something in the profile that is a custom field which doesn't update the log or contact?

Is there something on the drupal side maybe?  The contacts don't have a drupal user.

I've been not very experienced with CiviCRM. I try to get CiviCRM custom fields displayed in Views.
I've installed Drupal 8.9.3., CiviCRM 5.28.3, CiviCRM Entity 8.x-3.0-beta1.
Drupal and CiviCRM run on different databases on the same server with the same database user.
In added the array with the links to the correct database to civicrm.settings.php as described in https://docs.civicrm.org/sysadmin/en/latest/integration/drupal/views/.
In Drupal 7, when I created a view(user) I was offered different CiviCRM fields. This doesn't happen in my Drupal 8 installation.
Besides when In try to create a view(contacts) I get the following error message:
SQLSTATE[42S02]: Base table or view not found: 1146 Table 'usr_p550866_1.civicrm_contact' doesn't exist: SELECT civicrm_contact.id AS id FROM {civicrm_contact} civicrm_contact LIMIT 11 OFFSET 0; Array ( )

(usr_p550866_1 is the database for Drupal)
Is this a problem with Drupal 8 or do I anything wrong?
Your help would be appreciated very much.

texts: Migrating Drupal Users and CiviCRM Data to New Website

texts:
We are building a new Drupal 7 website but have an existing one with some deprecated features and custom code that we no longer wish to salvage for various reasons. I have established the new Drupal site and installed the same version of CiviCRM that we are using currently. The new site has the same CiviCRM configurations, extensions and integration modules and I am ready to import the CiviCRM database into it, which is no issue.

The next step is to finish setting up the new Drupal site and import the users from the old site. Once the users are migrated into the new site, I will re-sync the user accounts with CiviCRM.

What I want to know is, how does CiviCRM determine which contact record to sync the Drupal account with and what does it do in the case of duplicates? I need to make sure membership access is applied correctly to the same user accounts.

The rest of our staff use CiviCRM for all contact management in their departments, and our website users can update their own CiviCRM contact information directly from their Drupal user account.  Lots of addresses could be updated, and our office manager would never know about them.

How can our office manager be notified of any mailing address changes for only people with Envelope #'s? That way, she can change the address(es) in the external software and send the receipts to the correct address.

texts: Wordpress 4.4 - WSOD only for Live Contributions - Preview looks fine

texts:
Wordpress 4.4

Just recently upgraded from CiviCRM 4.5.5 to 4.6.10.

The problem just started happening last month. We changed servers last month, but changing servers does not seem to have been the problem. Everything was functioning until we added paypal as a payment instrument, and then we got a white screen of death for any live version of new membership payment or membership renewal form. The preview version looks like it should.

So I figured now was as good a time as any to upgrade to 4.6.10. The upgrade seems to have worked as designed. All interfaces work, except for the WSOD on any live contribution page still exists.

I would be grateful for ideas on how to fix this.

Example page: http://ncrarecycles.org/?page=CiviCRM&q=civicrm/contribute/transact&reset=1&id=2

Edit: I'm getting this php error only for live contribution pages: PHP Fatal error:  Class 'WP_Requirements' not found in /wp-content/plugins/google-calendar-events/google-calendar-events.php on line 46

I found this on Wordpress.org. Perhaps this will help?

In fact, (as originally posted here), I'm getting really strange behavior from Stripe payment processing; in addition to returning an error 100% of the time ("This PaymentIntent's amount could not be updated because it has a status of requires_capture. You may only update the amount of a PaymentIntent with one of the following statuses: requires_payment_method, requires_confirmation, requires_action." -- there's another thread here about that already), the Stripe dashboard shows a consistent $200 addition to all payments (these are in steps of $25, $50, $100, & $500 . . . and whatever I choose has exactly $200 extra tacked on).

Seems a little nuts. Anyone have any idea?


texts: Set up Contribution page to only accept recurring contributions?

texts:
We would like to set up a contribution page that only accepts monthly recurring contributions. Is there a simple way to do this in CiviCRM?

This contribution page would be associated with a Campaign, and we would like to be able to use the contribution widget to display how many monthly recurring contributions we have received and count them towards a monthly contribution goal. For example, we would like to fundraise to cover a monthly cost, like rent, and set up the widget to display the total monthly cost, and the portion covered by monthly recurring donations.

We are using CiviCRM 5.6.0 with Drupal 7.

texts: can't log into a site build using civibuild

This is how I created my site

civibuild create demo8 \
 --type drupal-clean \
 --web-root /sites/demo8 \
 --title demo8 \
 --url http://demo8.roiaws.com \
 --admin-user admin --admin-pass 12345

and this is what I get after I try to log on using admin/12345 or demo/demo (in short - it doesn't login):

Additional info: when looking for problems in the civibuild output, this is the only interesting thing I saw:

texts: How do I send automatic Thank You emails for different donation amounts and donation types?

texts:
For example, I want send an automatic thank you templated email to someone using 1 email template for there "generous donation" for donations over $1,000. -- included would be some extra emotion graphics.

Whereas I would like to send automatic thank email using a 2nd email template that thanks someone is a less intense way for donations of $100 dollars or less.

Likewise, I would like to send different templates for donations of different types -- wire transfer, check, even service donations (e.g. want to provide free marketing services)

I created a user role and operations.
I tried assigning a group (access based) to the user role in the assignment section. It does not stick. I'm not sure what I am doing wrong. The role is set up as well as the operations. The group has the correct access checked off.
Advice?
Working on Drupal 7 and on the last 4.7 CiviCRM.


texts: Option to have the employer field being a select with existing orgs?

texts:
I want to let members of existing organisations register themselves via CF.

If I let them free type their own organisation name, it's sure they will type the name in very creative ways, that are going to be different than how they are created in CiviCRM and therefore adding duplicates

In the drupal world with webform, you can limit what can be put in the organisation name and instead of a free form, have a select

Is there something similar with CF? having the employer field not a free form but a select with the list of organisations being a select of all the organisations in a group?


texts:
I am using WordPress 5.4 and CiviCRM Version 5.18.4. I am trying to include an "unsubscribe" link to put at the bottom of NON-bulk emails (including those sent by CiviRules).
I have created a Profile containing the email address and the "do not email" field.  It appears in my list of profiles as ID=31.
I create an email template, and at the bottom of the email I put a link to:
http://mydomain.org/?page=CiviCRM&q=civicrm/profile/edit&reset=1&gid=31&{contact.checksum}&id={contact.contact_id}
Correct?
I send a test email using that template, to a contact with Contact id=61.  The link in the email looks like:
https://mydomain.com/civicrm/profile/edit?reset=1&gid=31&id=61&cs=12345678987654321
Looks great, yes?
I click on that link and get directed to
https://mydoimain.com/edit-your-info/?reset=1&gid=31&id=61&cs=12345678987654321
where "edit-your-info" is (roughly) the name of a DIFFERENT profile, one with profile ID=16.
In fact, browsing to https://mydomain.com/civicrm/profile/edit?reset=1&gid=31 seems to ALWAYS take me to the "edit-your-info" page, no matter what number I set gid equal to, or even if I leave the "gid=N" out entirely.
Obviously I am making some silly mistake.  Any ideas what?


texts: CSS problems on Contact Notes View modal dialog

texts:
When viewing or editing a note attached to a contact, the dialog window displays the note content shifted far to the right. This is a new problem, but I'm not sure if it's a result of installing a WP plugin, or upgrading to CiviCRM 5.27.3 or 5.28.0. The issue seems to be with the jQuery class ui-dialog-content.
Anyone else seeing this? Any suggestions for finding the cause of the problem? Thanks in advance.

texts: How to input URLs in CiviCRM fields (custom fields or standard fields) so that they're clickable

texts:
Does anyone know if this is possible? I want to save a URL in a CiviCRM field so that it's clickable when the field content is displayed eg in a report, or just in a normal CiviCRM page view.

Example: store the URL for a page on a contact's website, so that when I display the contact record, the website URL appears as a clickable link. I suspect it must be possible, but can't work out how to do it.


texts: can't sort search result table by column when the column shows a custom field

texts:
this has me stumped, and wondering if anyone else has encountered it.

I have a profile search results page where the result table includes both standard fields and custom fields.

I am able to sort the table successfully on the standard fields by clicking the arrows/column headers, but the custom fields column sort fails. I see one of two errors:

If I click the up/down arrows next to the column header text, a popup "Network Error Unable to reach the server. Please refresh this page in your browser and try again." appears, and a 500 server error is registered in the web server error log.
If I click the column header text, I get a 404 page with the error message "Class name must be a valid object or a string"

You can see this in action live at https://www.fawco.org/index.php?option=com_civicrm&task=civicrm/profile&force=1&gid=18&reset=1&crmRowCount=100&Itemid=388
("Name" and "Country" are default fields, "FAWCO Region" is a custom field.)

Per my testing:

Search itself works properly.
There are no errors in the CiviCRM log or the Joomla log.
Joomla and CiviCRM debug modes have not shown any errors.
web server logs report as described above, 500 for the sort request via arrow, 404 for the sort request via text.
Adding and removing different default and custom fields to the results makes no difference: default columns consistently work and custom consistently fail.

System is Joomla 3.9.10 with CiviCRM 5.15.1.

Has anyone seen this before, or could someone give me a hint where I could start troubleshooting?


texts: Can't access custom fields used in event registration

texts:
Versions:

Drupal 7.63
CiviCRM 5.9.1

Custom Fields:

Created custom fields with Field Type of Autocomplete-Select with lookup for following fields:

Institution
Area of Study
Year of Graduation

Used for: Participants (Role): Attendee

  Attendee is a type of participant for an event type, alongside other types

Custom Data Set is active
Custom Data Set is public

Custom fields are to be used by CiviEvent attendees to self select as part of event registration, this information is saved against their contact entry.

Drupal Permissions

"CiviCRM: access all custom data" is active for Anonymous User role

Problem

When typing in a valid value for the custom field, such as "Accounting" for "Area of Study" the following error of "Loading Failed" is displayed for an unauthenticated user.

This lookup works fine with the following Drupal Role Permission assigned:

CiviCRM: access CiviCRM backend and API

Master control for access to the main CiviCRM backend and API. Give to trusted roles only.

I've been unable to find more information about the security implications of this setting, and the wording of this setting concerns me when thinking to giving it to Anonymous Users.

I'm trying to get the balance of functionality without leaving the system too open, but I'm unsure why I need to expose access to the backend and API to get this working.

When the following Drupal permission is modified: (thanks @petednz)

"CiviCRM: access AJAX API" is active

The error message in a cell such as "Area of Study" upon searching an area such as "Accounting" is "None Found" (error has light great background instead of red background per image above)

"CiviCRM: access AJAX API" is inactive

The error message in a cell such as "Area of Study" upon searching an area such as "Accounting" is "Loading Failed" (error has red background per screenshot above)


texts: 100% mailing have bounced : validation failed for

texts:
Hello after two modifications on the server and on CiviCRM, it becomes impossible to send any mailing. All the email adresses are "burned" with all the email addresses being wrongly tagged as bounced.
In the Report, the Bounce Type is for all emails indicated as Invalid.

Some symptoms :
The table civicrm_mailing_event_bounce indicate for all mails adresses in the bounce_reason this problem :

Validation failed for: "(INVALID)" <(INVALID)>

The bounce_type_id in the is #6 which is Invalid : Email address is not valid
Of course the setting in admin/options/from_email_address (From Email Address Options) have been verified, they are OK.

In the table civicrm_mailing_bounce_pattern there is 24 different patterns from the bounce_type_id #6.

There is then two clues :
The server had been recently moved under PHP7.2 and CiviCRM had been enabled to handle the Multi Site Configuration with the extension CiviCRM Multisite (org.civicrm.multisite).

Did someone experimented and solved this trouble ?

Thanks for any help.

The CMS is Drupal 7 with CiviCRM 5.4.1 on a Debian 8 server
The bounce email boxe is located on a different Debian 8 server with Postfix Mail Server Postfix version 2.11.3


texts:
I have a nonprofit organization who wants to manage their members and create a paperless membership management environment. Some of the specific, out of the box needs are:

The ability to manage roles and functions within the organization, such as executive board members, officers, chairpersons, committee assignments, etc.
Pay dues with installment options and late fees
Customizable member profile options
Manage events
Manage yearly obligations

The interface would be for internal use only, sort of an intranet. There would be no outside membership subscriptions. We are currently on a Joomla platform. Can CiviCRM interface. Is this a good choice?

texts: Can pay-later instructions offer html format and plain text versions?

texts:
This maybe should be a feature request.

I have complex "pay later" instructions, and I would like to display them in html format (which I can easily do) and provide an alternate version for folks who have chosen to receive plan-text email only.

Now I know I could just not use html tags and everything would look OK for both types of contacts.  But if it is possible to "conditionally" include the html format message and the text-only message, that would be swell.

Any thoughts?  Thanks!

CiviCRM 5.24.4/WordPress 5.4

Need to sort out Stripe webhook settings, but Administer>CiviContribute>Stripe Settings just takes me to the main admin page. Nothing there at all.

Anybody know why this might be happening? Or how I should adjust webhooks at Stripe, instead?


texts:
We have reassigned a number of our contributions to one single contribution page - as the source was good enough for our record keeping purposes.

You cannot delete this Contribution Page because it has already been used to submit a contribution or membership payment. It is recommended that your disable the page instead of deleting it, to preserve the integrity of your contribution records. If you do want to completely delete this contribution page, you first need to search for and delete all of the contribution transactions associated with this page in CiviContribute.

The page no longer has contributions associated with it. Even test ones - I searched for them all - no memberships were ever processed via that page either.


texts:
Testing out Stripe with Civicrm 4.6.2, the plugin installed from Civicrm Stripe payment processor, when confirming the input test data of a Contribution Campaign with an enabled thank you page, stripe.js replies with:

You are using Stripe.js in live mode over an insecure connection.
This is considered unsafe. Please conduct live requests only on sites
served over https.

Now the Stripe dashboard is set to test, yet even after caching and reloading the page this message is shown.

Possibly for this reason when submitting a payment with a test card there is no confirmation, the page just renders again with the blank payment details input form. Nothing is shown on the Stripe dashboard.
What could the problem be?

UPDATE:

After setting the Link to Test-Drive, the process works in the dashboard admin. On the live site after submitting the transaction with the details, the page still renders again with blank cc input form. In the console there are two errors which I think might be the reason for the error:

TypeError: cont is undefined civicrm:1460
ReferenceError: Shadowbox is not defined civicrm:1509

Shadowbox JS is installed as a plugin and set to active.
Any ideas?

I am trying to install CiviCRM on Azure using the Wordpress for Linux web app and it appears CiviCRM is failing to find the MYSQL server. I've checked many times to see if the database information, including the MYSQL server information, inputted is correct and it's correct. I've even tried variations of the MYSQL server name, including using port numbers at the end, but it's had no impact.

I tried to install previous versions of CiviCRM to see if that would help, but the same error continues to show up. A similar question came up a few months ago, but I did not see a clear answer on how to resolve the problem.

Your database settings don't appear to be correct. All green, but still error!

I am wondering if this is a bug with CiviCRM that is specific to Azure or if it's something on Azure's side of things. I don't think it's on the Azure side of things because I can install Wordpress and use MYSQL bench with no issue using the same database information.


texts: Does the latest version of CiviCRM accommodate PayPal's changes to its dispute tracking?

texts:
I received this message from PayPal and I am wondering if I need to do anything or if CiviCRM 4.6.4 on Drupal 7 already has it covered.

If not, what do I need to do?

Thanks.

  If you are currently using the Instant Payment Notification (IPN) process or the Case report in your current integration, we want to
  notify you of a change that may impact your business.

  To ensure you don’t experience a disruption of PayPal service, we
  encourage you to make any applicable changes by July 7, 2015.

  What is happening?

  We’re enhancing our dispute management system to ensure you receive
  more detailed and timely information.

  The first phase of this enhancement will encompass chargebacks and ACH
  bank returns. As part of this enhancement, we’ll be updating the
  format of the Case ID which is the unique identifier we assign to a
  dispute case.

  Why is this happening?

  Enhancing our dispute management system will provide more detailed,
  accurate, and timely information regarding disputes.

  What do I need to do?

  If you are directly integrating data from the IPN process and/or the
  Case report into your systems, you will need to ensure that your
  configuration will accept the format change for the unique dispute
  identifier as outlined here.

  Data passed contains a case_id value. This value will now be formatted
  in two ways:

  Existing format: PP-XXX-XXX-XXX-XXX New format: PP-D-XXXX For the new
  format, XXXX is an integer. The “D” indicates the case is a dispute.

  Effective July 15, cases will be identified using either ID format
  until the transition to the new dispute management system is complete.
  This is expected to take several years.

  As a best practice, merchants are encouraged to integrate flexibly so
  that any future changes to the unique case identifier can be made
  without integration changes.

  When is this happening?

  We will begin generating cases using the new format after July 15. To
  avoid any disruption to the way you process IPNs or the Case report,
  please update your integration by this date.

  Thanks for your patience as we continue to improve our services.

  Your Merchant Services Support Team

I am currently testing Civi CRM with a view to use it for an upcoming project. I am using WordPress and want to store documents on a contacts record, is this possible? I've seen there is a documents extension available and it works on the sandbox site i've used but we would be hosting with WordPress. If I go into system settings and extensions there is a documents option but it fails to install.
Any info would be appreciated, thanks

Edit: Also could you let me know if there is much difference in terms of functionality between what you can do with Civi in WordPress compared to Drupal please :)


texts: How am I meant to use $mask in hook_civicrm_links?

texts:
I don't really understand what the point of the $mask variable that is passed to hook_civicrm_links is. Can anyone explain it to me?
PS I understand how to use the other variables and I might not need to use $mask (the examples in the docs don't) but I feel like I might be missing out on something ingenious here.
The docs say:

$links = the links array to modify in-place
each item in the array may have:

name: the link text

url: the link URL base path (like 'civicrm/contact/view', and fillable from $values)

qs: the link URL query parameters to be used by sprintf() with $values (like 'reset=1&cid=%%id%%' when $values['id'] is the contact ID)

title (optional): the text that appears when hovering over the link

extra (optional): additional attributes for the  tag (fillable from $values)

bit (optional): a binary number that will be fitered by $mask (sending nothing as $links['bit'] means the link will always display)

ref (optional, recommended): a CSS class to apply to the  tag.

class (optional): Any other CSS classes to apply to the  tag (e.g. no-popup).

$mask = a bitmask that will fiter $links

So I am guessing it is something to do with permissions.  A but of human friendly explanation with context and example would be much appreciated :)


texts:
I have been seeing some error messages in an email report from scheduled jobs. The messages are all:

/usr/sbin/sendmail: unexpected response 501 to RCPT TO command

which doesn't tell me a lot. It started about three weeks ago. My initial investigations suggested it might be the "update participants" job as they seemed to match (two each though, odd) the updates to "pending from waitlist" and this may have been used for the first time this month. But those emails have clearly got through OK as the individuals concerned completed a booking.

Yesterday, I got 12 instances of the message and nothing in the scheduled job log seemed to match. I can see nothing in the CiviCRM ConfigAndLog at this time. I don't have access to any system logs as I'm on a shared server. Any ideas how to proceed.

The site is CiviCRM 4.7.24 on WordPress 5.03 and using sendmail.

texts: CiviMail mail job fails to complete, even though mail is sent

texts:
This is a continuation of a problem I thought I had resolved earlier, is there a maximum number of links permitted in an outbound email?

I am using WordPress 5.4 and CiviCRM Version 5.18.4. I could not get CiviCRM to process even my test mailings of one particular message.  Eventually I simplified the message (reducing the number of links, as well as the length), and that seemed to work.

I was then able to send the message out (as a bulk email, through CiviMail) to a small test group of 3 recipients, and that completed OK.  Then I tried sending it to a larger group of 9 recipients, and after about a minute I received a "DB Error: no database selected" error, suggesting the job didn't complete.  In fact, the mails DID go out to the 9 recipients, but they did NOT show up in their individual "Activity" lists, and the mailing still showed as Running.  And the next time the Send Mail job ran, it sent them out AGAIN.  That's not good.

I had my hosting service increase the amount of memory allocated to me (as suggested by another older question here).  It seemed to help at first, but now I am getting the same results.

What puzzles me is that it sends the mail but does not record the mailing to that contact before moving on to the next address.  Does CiviMail send out all the emails before recording any of them in the contact record?  That seems odd.

Mail reports do not help:  While the job is running, it does not show as either complete or Incomplete.  And after I cancel it (as I must), it still doesn't appear on the reports -- again, even though mail WAS sent.

Any suggestions?

texts: Braintree with Wordpress not working with CiviEvent

texts:
I have a wordpress Civicrm instance and we are using Braintree as the payment processor. I'm trying to create a CiviEvent, selling tickets to an event. When I try to test payments out by submitting test payments, I get an error.

Looks like there was problem. Payment Response: Braintree\Configuration::merchantId needs to be set (or accessToken needs to be passed to Braintree\Gateway).:

The weird thing is, the merchantId and all the API keys are already defined. I made a test payment on a CiviContribute page and that worked just fine. I'm confused as to why it would work on one Civi module and not work on the other.

Can anyone help advise me on how to fix this? Thanks.

We are using Civi 5.0.1 on Wordpress 4.9

We had our conference two weeks ago.  Most of the attendees signed up online through the website.

Today I was asked to enter the information for the people who walked in and paid during the conference.
When I try to save their information for the event registration I get the error you see in the screenshot.
I believe this is due to the event having ended.  How can I add registrations and have them associated with an event that already ended?

texts: Creating Drupal Accounts when a sub-type CiviCRM Contact is created - created by a webform

texts:
I have a scenario - which I have no doubt that others will have come a crossed and some will have implemented.  The scenario is: to have a web form (created via the Webform module - which has CiviCRM fields integrated into it - via the Webform integration module) that has the CiviCRM fields such as:

the first name,
the last name,
the e-mail address, and
the address
(e.g. address line 1, address line 2, city, post code) etc

and when the user (whom is not logged in - as they do not have a Drupal account)  selects submit

The details entered are saved in CiviCRM, but equally
A Drupal user is created for the user (no doubt using the Rules module in Drupal).

The issue is that

I’d only want the rule fired if the web form was used, not if I create users via the CiviCRM admin interface (as I have sub-type contacts which wouldn’t need Drupal accounts assigned to them)
When I go into Rules - I can find the triggering event, which i assume would be “CiviCRM Contact: Contact has been created” e.g. when a Contact is created the rule will begin to fire…

what I’m not sure about is:

2a. how to configure the condition for the rule to say “only do the action if the contact is of sub-type x” or if triggered by webform x

2b. how to configure the action portion of the rule to create a new Drupal user

2)b)i. there is the “Create a new entity” option under the Entities section in the drop down for action to add, where i can choose “User” as the value …

Image 2: The rules screen - where trigger specified in top section

Image 3: The options user the actions options

 however, on the next screen - where it asks for the login name of the user, the replacement patterns do not provide me with a means of saying use the e-mail entered in the registration form as the User name for the account that I want created; nor does it allow me to specify that the system should pick up the e-mail entered in the web form as use that as the email address for the new account being used.

side note: I do realise at this point having written the above that the rule was written saying do x when event y is triggered - and without specifying that event y should be coming from webform a, which might explain why the action portion of the rule is not providing any replacement pattern for the username - e.g the rule is generic so would be fired if a contact record was created via a different form or the general CiviCRM admin panel.

So… anyone got any ideas on how to achieve what I’m trying to do above?  I assume I can do the above without having to get involved with writing bespoke modules or using hooks etc.

texts: How can I create a membership renewal link for organisations?

texts:
I'm creating a scheduled reminder email that is sent to members six weeks before their membership expires.  I want the email to link to the membership page with the contact details of the organisation filled in.

I have managed to do this successfully for individuals by using the following link in the email:

[site.com]/civicrm/contribute/transact?reset=1&id=1&{contact.checksum}&cid={contact.contact_id}

However, this doesn't work for organisations.  It only fills in the email address of the organisation but not the organisation's name, address and postcode.

I presume that this is something to do with the fact that the organisation membership form is filled out on behalf of the organisation.

Is there a way I can change this link to ensure that the organisation's full details are filled in when the user clicks on the link?

I am using CiviCRM 4.6.10 on Drupal 7.41.

texts:
I'm creating an email template to be used to confirm a contact's membership status, and I would like to include a list of the Groups (representing Committees in our case) that the contact belongs to.

I have tried including the token {contact.Group(s)} (with various capitalizations, inclusion of parentheses, etc.) without success.

I can include a token that sends the user to the form where they can see and edit those memberships, but I would rather just list them.  I thought this would just be in the drop-down list of tokens, but no, and I can't find any reference to this in the manuals.  Any suggestions?

Thanks as always.  I'm using CiviCRM for WordPress, current versions.


texts: Using Civicrm_api3 in onAjax[Name] plugin function

texts:
I created a plugin which provides custom validation for civicrm forms.  Part of the jQuery validation on the plugin makes an AJAX call to the plugin.  The plugin calls its onAjax[Name] method.  In the onAjax[Name] method, I want to use civicrm_api3( ... ).  However, the system returns a fatal error

Call to undefined function civicrm_api3()

How do I use civicrm_api3 in the above context?  Do I need to import some class files?  The same code works if the validation occurs when the form is submitted with the submit button instead of AJAX.

texts: How does CiviCRM rate compared to other CRMs

texts:
I am writing this question as our organisation is starting to explore alternative CRM’s that are available on the market to replace our current existing one which is ChilliDB. Our use of the CRM would be with regards to the following:

Data storage for over 13,000 stakeholders which will require continuing changes on our end.
Data audits – will CiviCRM allow for some form of data checking to identify user changes if we have administrative access?
Integration with some of our current systems.
Needs to be somewhat customizable with the operations of the organisation.
Needs to be relatively user friendly
Strong support on the developers end to assist with issues
What is the security like? Our data is regulated and confidential. This is an area of concern for us.

Any help to these questions is greatly appreciated.

texts: Can a New Member automatically become a Drupal User with defined Role?

texts:
I would like to allow people who pay to become civicrm members to have access to protected DRUPAL pages. I would like it to happen right away rather than waiting for a batch operation.

My method is to make some DRUPAL RULES so that when a person becomes a member then they would automatically become a DRUPAL user with a specified ROLE. Then the pages would be open to that particular ROLE.

I found a way of creating a DRUPAL user if I add a TAG on a civicrm contact. So it seems like I just need a rule that adds the TAG when the contact becomes a member.

Here are my questions:

1)Does anybody know how to set up a rule to assign a tag to a new member?

2)Is there an easier way to accomplish my goal?

In gratitude,
Daniel


texts: How do I modify properties (container width and column widths) of the New Individual Form/Box

texts:
I'd like to know which file(CSS?), and within the file which element/variable etc. I can edit to adjust the properties of the New Individual Container/Form.

I'd like to do 2 things:
1 -Make the Container wider.  By default it is 500px, I want to increase it to 60opx.
2 - Adjust the width of the columns to make the 1st one wider so the question is not all jumbled up, to make it a bit more user friendly/readable.

I am hoping someone can tell which file and which element needs to be edited please - I am guessing civicrm.css but the only entry I found that referenced 500px by default didn't do anything when I changed it.

Thanks!

I know I can delete old financial types but that will effect my ability to search for them. I also see that I can rename them but then I would just have 6 "X-Campaigns" and one of the reasons for wanting to do this is trim back all unnecessary financial types that are cluttering things up. Is there a way to merge by batch? Thank you for any help.

texts: Paypal Interruptus - Wordpress w/ CiviCRM 4.7.1

texts:
Wordpress 4.4.2
CiviCRM Just upgraded from 4.6.10 to 4.7.1 last week.

Ever since we've upgraded, CiviCRM allows payments to be made via PayPal, but event registrations and membership renewals are now always marked as "Pending (incomplete transaction)". We have to manually go to PayPal, check whether they've actually paid, confirm and then edit the pending flag manually so that the transaction shows as complete in CiviCRM.

Additionally, email confirmations from CiviCRM are not going out.

This is causing much more work than we had to do last week before we updated to CiviCRM 4.7.1

Test event registrations and renewals work as expected. Live ones don't.

On the off chance that 4.7.2 has a fix, I've just upgraded successfully to the latest version. Until I see some renewals or event registrations, I won't know if that's fixed it.

I'd be grateful if someone can tell me if 4.7.2 had the fix or if this is something outside the scope of 4.7.2.

(see image below)

Cheers,

Chris

texts: Is moving Civi easier than the docs say?

texts: I've moved Civi a few times in the past 2/3 years, following the docs esp. the PhpMyAdmin method.  Lately the restore using this method has failed even though I followed the docs - because of foreign key restraints (error 1215) - so I've emptied the target db and done a full backup & restore with no problem. The last move I just made a full backup & restore with no problems - this is at 5.7.3 level. So I guess that improvements have been made & for systems at 5.7 level moving Civi is more straightforward than the docs say.  This is good news of course!  Perhaps it's just the docs that need updating, but I wonder what other users have found?


texts: How to set multiple values for a Checkbox component in webform with conditionals and keeping the old value

texts:
I need to set up a Webform CiviCRM in Drupal with a component that can have multiple values (checkbox).
But I need to establish its value based on the value of another field.
How can I set multiple values for the Checkbox component using conditionals?
Also, as the value of this multiple Checkbox depends on the value of another field, I need to keep the former value, and add a new one without removing the previous one.
I have included a screenshot of the conditionals.

With these conditions, they can only have a unique value and if the user selects more than one option on the field "Support you are looking for" the previous value of "Group(s)" is removed,
so the last condition which is met is the one that establishes the value of "Group(s)".
Any help would very much appreciated.

texts: How do I isolate the amount of a recurring contribution in CiviRules?

texts:
I want to use CiviRules to add new recurring donors to a group when they sign up, depending on how much they give per month.
I could set up the trigger to look at the value of each new contribution, but that will activate the rule every month.
My thought was to have the rule triggered on new membership (we are using iATS to generate memberships based on recurring contributions), and use the Membership Recurring Contribution field to evaluate the amount, but apparently that is simply an id number.
How can I find the value of a recurring contribution and add users to a group depending on the amount, but only when they first sign up?

texts: Group, Type, or Membership type - please advise

texts:
I'm setting up CiviCRM for our artist workshop, but after reading the good book I still haven't wrapped my head around how best to setup for the data I'd like to cover, so thought I'd check with my betters. Please advise.

We are 1 organisation with 500 members, and each member can have
access to 0-15 of our workshops (wood, textile, etc). Each workshop
has 1 or 2 members who are admins for that shop. We have a board of
trustees who all are members.
We allow organisations to become members as well, and their employees
are allowed in our shop, but they are not member themselves.
We allow current members to become "inactive" for 1 year - retaining
their membership but with reduced access to the shop.
We have a bunch of groups for tasks (events, exhibition, marketing…)
whose members are also members of the main organisation.

I'd like to be able to selectively email all members of particular workshops, "task" groups and the board, as well as keep track of which member has been approved for which workshop when and by whom.

Q:
I was leaning towards creating groups for all above, but an alternative solution might be to use either custom fields or tags, and then use smart groups to generate email lists. Is there an advantage to either solution?

Q: I just found the "membership type" field - since we're doing our billing in an external system, is there any point in setting up the membership groups using "membership type" instead of "groups"?

Q: Some of our members are also members in other organisation we're dealing with, and I'd like to be able to sort those out as well. Would tagging those members with "acme inc" be the most straightforward way of doing that, or would it be better to setup a custom field allowing for more granularity? (i.e. "acme inc, press contact, interested in graphic design")

Happy Holidays!

texts: Non-deductible contribution amounts are always $0

texts:
Create an event with a price set which contains two price fields. One price field contains items of financial type "Event Fee" which is defined as non-deductible. The other price field contains items of financial type "Donation" which is defined as deductible.

The Financial Type of the Event, specified on the Fees page, is Donation (although setting it to Event does not change the result).

When a participant registers and selects for example a $30 Event Fee option and a $100 Donation option, a contribution is created which shows the two line items with a net amount of $130 as expected. The non-deductible amount, however, is shown as $0, rather than $30 as I would have expected.

Am I doing something wrong? Is this a bug?

I'm running 4.6.14 and confirmed the same issue exists on the demo site (4.7.5).

I'm entirely new to CiviCRM and setting it up for the first time for our church.

One of the needs is to record information for Weddings. This will mean that against the record for a Bride or Groom (or both) we will need to record custom information e.g. date of wedding, deposit paid, calling of Banns (we're in the UK), organist booked etc. etc.

I think we can do this by setting up a group and attaching custom fields to the group. but we also want this information to be searchable so that we can report on all wedding booked in 2017 or send an email to the vicar 2 months before the wedding to remind them to make contact with the couple.

We will also need to record similar types of information for baptisms and funerals, but this will probably follow the same structure as for weddings.

Any advice on how this can best be handled within CiviCRM?

Many thanks,

texts: Changing directory permissions to get Cron to work via drush

texts:
Here's my core question:  Is it ok to allow full write access to Users, Groups, and Others for the directory sites/default/files/civicrm/templates_c/en_US ?

Background:
I have been running CiviCRM for a while now without getting Cron set up to automatically run (we run it manually, which is terrible).  I'm trying to get this set up finally.

I'd like to run it using Drush, because it does not use a username or password.  This was suggested in the wiki on scheduled jobs.

The following drush command works from the command line, but only if I set the permissions of the above mentioned en_US directory as "777", or "users, groups, and others can read, write, and execute."

  path/to/drush -u 1 -r path/to/drupal -l www.example.org civicrm-api job.execute auth=0 -y

If I run this command with the original permissions setting, "755" (drwxr-xr-x) then I get the error message "CiviCRM does not have permission to write temp files in sites/default/files/civicrm/templates_c/en_US/, ExitingDrush command terminated abnormally due to an unrecoverable error."  The owner of the directory is listed as "daemon".

Would it be a terrible thing to allow this directory to be writable by anyone?

texts: In CiviMember, can one set a rule where expired members, when renewing, are assigned probation status

texts:
We have assigned status rules in Civi member, which flow as follows:
Member joins = Probation
After 6 months = Current

In next year, until end of March if hasn't renewed = Grace-Voting
If renews = Current

After March, if hasn't renewed = Grace Non-Voting
If renews = Current

If Grace Non-Voting for full year = Expired

If expired and renews = Current

Our membership rules state that where members renew after their membership has expired they must serve the 6 month probationary period. Hence rule should be:

If expired and renews = probationary

Is it possible to set this status rule in CiviMember?

Can I post this here? Or do I need to go on https://github.com/eileenmcnaughton/nz.co.fuzion.extendedreport ? I am a user with no development expertise or ability to fix anything, would just love it if this report could work :)

The extended report
Extended Report - Editable Activities - Template
has many bugs.
1. It does not save sort settings for more than one column
-Example: If you add a second sort column, then save, then look at the sort columns, it won't have saved the additional sort column.

2.It won't change sort settings
-Example: It won't update 'section header/group by' settings. If you check a section header, save, then uncheck and refresh results, it still keeps the section header

Checking 'section header/group by' in the header doesn't group by.It creates a header for each activity rather than grouping those with a shared field value under the header.
-Example: If you sort by Activity status and check the 'section header/group by', it will have a "scheduled" header for each activity that is scheduled, etc.

Thanks!

When I try to upgrade from 4.6.16, to 4.7.7 it says that it doesn't recognize database version 4.6.16. It says:

You will need to determine the correct version corresponding to your current database state. You may want to revert to the codebase you were using prior to beginning this upgrade until you resolve this problem.

In addition, the actual error message is NOT formatted correctly. The full message (as it appears on screen) is:

An error has occurred.

You may want to revert to the codebase you were using prior to beginning this upgrade until you resolve this problem.

texts: System Status reports incorrect version number after update stall

texts:
I've tried to perform an update from 5.16.1 to 5.17, and the update script at /civicrm/upgrade?reset=1 stalled right at the end of the progress bar. After waiting many times longer than the whole update normally takes, I gave up and refreshed my browser. That page failed with "Your database has already been upgraded to CiviCRM 5.17.0".

Thinking I was in the clear, I went ahead and cleared sites/default/files/civicrm/templates_c/ and set the site live again. Only now I've noticed System Status is reporting that I'm still running 5.16.1 and need an upgrade. In the footer at the bottom of the page it correctly reports 5.17.

Is this likely to be a problem, and should I do anything to fix it? Or should I just wait for the next update and hope that clears it?


texts: Thank You page on contribution form. Print option for the PDF that is emailed as "receipt.pdf"

texts:
When completing a contribution, an email can be sent out with an attached PDF called "receipt.pdf". Is it possible to have this PDF printable on the Thank You page? I currently have a sloppy Print Button on my ThankYou.extra.tpl file, but it is not clean because I am using: $('#crm-main-content-wrapper').before('

Print

'); , which is basically printing the entire webpage. I also tried the &snippet=2 approach in the URL, but that is also too sloppy for the client.
Does anyone know of how to hook into that PDF generation code and spit it out into the ThankYou template?


texts: After Import to group, individuals in that group not showing up as recipients to in CiviMail.

texts:
OK, this is a new one to me. I'm running CiviCRM 4.6.6 on WordPress 4.3. For the individual contacts I added manually, CiviMail works awesome. But here's where things get weird.

I just finished importing a list of contacts into a new group (not a big list, just 104, that were exported from a previous CiviCRM install). I made sure to select only basic fields to import. Imported them into a new group. Import seemed to go fine. Changed the group setting to Mailing List.

But then when I tried to use CiviMail to send a mail to that group, CiviMail says "No Recipients."

So I added an previously entered contact into the new group, and when I tried CiviMail again, it says "1 recipient" (even though there are 101 showing up in the group).

What gives?


texts: How to create Drupal view to show CiviEvents and Drupal Events

texts:
I'm trying to create a view to show both CiviEvents and Drupal Events filtered by dates.

I can create a Drupal view to show Drupal Events fields and I can create a view to show CiviEvent fields but I can't create a view to show both.
Am I missing something obvious here or is it not possible due to the two databases.

We are using Drupal 7 and civicrm 4.7.24. We have seperate databases and have the CiviCRM Entity module installed.


texts: Scheduled Reminders - Limit or Add Recipients

texts:
I am using CiviCRM 4.7.22 on WordPress.

I am having some confusion with setting up Scheduled Reminders for Memberships.  Ideally, I would like the member to receive an automatic email notice that their membership account is about to expire 30 days before the End Date.

The "Limit or Add Recipients" field is what is causing me confusion.  There are three options: "Neither", "Limit to", and "Also Include".  How does this need to be set to ensure that only the member whose account is about to expire is automatically sent an email notice?

I am thinking just leaving it at "neither" is all I need to do, but I am not sure and the documentation is not helping to ease my confusion.  I am hoping someone can help clear this up for me.

Thank you.


texts: Contact Form: Unable to set country and province programmatically

texts:
From an extension I'm trying to insert data from the geocoding of Google maps into the address form.
No problem with text fields, while I can't set the 2 SELECT fields.

In practice, in the following code:

  CRM.$("#address_"+ contactPos +"_street_address").val(indirizzo);
  CRM.$("#address_"+ contactPos +"_city").val(localita);
  CRM.$("#address_"+ contactPos +"_postal_code").val(cap);
  CRM.$("#address_"+ contactPos +"_country_id").val(paese); // Problem 1 here
  //CRM.$("#address_"+ contactPos +"_country_id").selectmenu("refresh", true);  // If uncommented return an error
  CRM.$("#address_"+ contactPos +"_state_province_id").val(provincia); // Problem 2 here

street_address, city and postal code are set correctly in the form, while for the remaining 2 fields (they are SELECT):

1) the country is correctly set but is not visible in the form (the previous item remains selected) but if I save the contact, I get the correct value

2) the province is not set in the form nor, after saving, in the DB

UPDATE

I solved the first problem by adding the following lines

  countryDesc = CRM.$("#address_"+ contactPos +"_country_id option:selected" ).text();
  CRM.$("#select2-chosen-"+ contactPos +"0").html(countryDesc);

The update of the province, which depends on the selected country, now works with some limitations

  CRM.$.when(CRM.$("#address_"+ contactPos +"_country_id").trigger('change'))
      .then (function() {
        CRM.$("#address_"+ contactPos +"_state_province_id").val(provincia);
        CRM.$("#select2-chosen-"+ contactPos +"1").html(desProvincia);
        alert({/literal}" {ts escape='js'}Address updated{/ts}"{literal}+'\n'+status);
    });

which are the following:

1) I had to put an alert ();

2) when updating an existing address, if I change the country, the province is not saved

Any help will be appreciated.

Thank you


texts:
So I want the following to happen:
1. web visitor registers for membership
2. after registering the member would have to "add a pdf to cart" and "check out"

Is there a way on CiviCRM to set something like this up? I am trying to find something, but cannot find anything on having products (a pdf) download available for members to download after registration.

Not sure if CiviContribute, CiviEvent, or CiviCase would be appropriate.

Wordpress is what is being used.

The functionality is basically someone clicks to get a PDF or ebook, and then it takes them to a page where they have to register or donate. In receipt of the donation or registration they would receive the ebook/pdf to download on their computer.

This question surprised me a bit - but I have no clue about where to locate my extension directory!!

Is there a simple way to reliably locate it (either programatically or via the UI)?

System Details

Versions
CiviCRM: 4.7.4
WordPress: 4.4.2

When I attempt to renew an expired membership via the Renew-Credit Card option I am presented with the following error.

Payment Error Response:
Error: Invalid API Key provided: ************W4kG

We know the API keys are valid because we have other functions of CiviCRM that are authorizing succesfully with Authorize.net. Any help would be welcomed with open arms. XD.


texts: Give a Wordpress User Only rights to his clients and report

texts:
first of all i want to say CiviCRM is a wonderful!!

I have a CiviCRM installation with a lot of clients in it. Also there are 20 users. I use a Wordpress bases installation of CiviCRM. And each user has his own report.

Now all the users can see all the reports, and can find all the sales of other users and so on..

Is there a way to give for example User_A only rights to see:
- The report of User_A
- The search results only from what has to do with User_A

The User_A has a Custom Field, with i filter on in the report to see.

I hope someone can give a good solution for this problem.

With Kind Regards,
Mark
