Hi Frank. One final question then I will stop plagueing you....  I have never tried to get subscriptions from my emails before but putting a subscribe link in with my signature sounds like a good idea. Your admin center says to put one of these links in.... BUT WHICH ? and what exactly will it do ? I am not sure exactly what this will do. Do I need to put the code for a form in with it ? or will it just find the reply email address and add to the list or what ? Regards Graham | ||

Okay, I played around and found out what they did. I have altered the script on the site just a little to read 'user name' & 'real name' rather than 'first name' & 'last name'. Is there any way I can get at this part of the code for the email subscibe form ?? Regards. Graham | ||

Hello Graham, You can simply edit the text in the language.kit file that is located inside the mmf/data/lang/eng directory. Sincerely, Frank Bauer | ||

Hi Frank. I have altered the text in the two mmf/data/lang/eng files so that 'first name' now reads 'User Name' and 'Last Name' now reads 'Real Name'( optional ) , saved and uploaded them. But it makes no difference. On the forms used to subscribe on my site ( http://www.abcir.org/abcirnewsletter.html ) I altered the code to produce the above change. When you click on the link that I put in my email signatures ( http://www.abcir.org/cgi-bin/mmf/sub.pl?subscibers=!FLM|eng ) it takes you to a preformated form that still has the first and last names. It is the code for this form that I need to change. Regards. Graham | ||

Hello Graham, The only lines you need to edit are the following in the langauge.kit file, which are located in der mmf/data/lang/eng directory: 6|First name: 7|Last name: That is all. Sincerely, Frank Bauer | ||

Hi again. Those are the two lines that I did change but if you follow the email link above you will see that it still shows first name-last name ( it also doesn't show the additional field which I have as 'Location ( country ) ) Any other thoughts ? Regards. Graham | ||

Hello Graham, I found the problem. You didn't change the language.kit file in the mmf/data/lang/eng directory. Instead you changed the original data-lang-eng-language.kit file that came with the script and uploaded it into the mmf directory. In this case you need to call the install.pl file one more time to rename the file and copy it into the proper subdirectory. I did that already for you. Now the http://www.abcir.org/cgi-bin/mmf/sub.pl?subscibers=!FLM link shows the proper result. Sincerely, Frank Bauer | ||
