Email "From" value is screwed up

When I (the administrator) get emails notifying me of uploads or comments, the "from" value is
\"Gallery Name\" <email@example.com>
is there any way to remove the slashes? Or even the quotation marks altogether?

Or just where in which file could i find the code so i can figure it out?

thanks,
Kelmo

Hi,

Unable to replicate this bug on my cpg-1.4.4 installation. Please check again your 'Galley name' setting.

The code used to handle sender's name while sending mail is in 'include/mailer.inc.php' (function 'cpg_mail').

I have the same problem. just never reported it. curious to find out why it does that.

include/mailer.inc.php


if ($sender_name == '') { $sender_name = '"' . $CONFIG['gallery_name'] . '"'; }


Remove the extra quotes and see what happens.

lordprodigy

you mean from if ($sender_name == '') { $sender_name = '"' . $CONFIG['gallery_name'] . '"'; }
to if ($sender_name == '') { $sender_name = ' ' . $CONFIG['gallery_name'] . ' '; } ?

Nibbler

if ($sender_name == '') $sender_name = $CONFIG['gallery_name'];

I have just reapplied this fix to my 1.4.8  board after doing it to 1.4.6 and so on...  Is this a bug or some anomoly that shouldn't be fixed in the point releases yet for some reason?  Just wondering if I have missed something here.

BTW it is a fix that works well so I wonder why it has to be applied each time...

Thank you for this fix. As an addition, what about this:

"Riley&#39;s Photo Gallery" <daddy@rileydupont.com>

How can I get it to convert the &#39; back to a ' ?

Thank you,
