VERP on CiviHosting

Last Updated June 3, 2023June 3, 2023No Comments

Yes, we support sub-addressing, VERP style. Subaddressing allows you to use multiple email addresses as subaddresses within a single e-mail account. Our system supports subaddresses with minus addressing. It works by adding a “-” sign followed by a keyword to the local part of the email address, just before the “@” symbol. For example, if your email address is contact@example.com, you can use subaddresses like contact-work@example.com or contact-personal@example.com. Messages sent to a subaddress will be delivered to the main address (contact@example.com in this case). You can use subaddresses for different purposes such as filtering emails, tracking the source of spam, or organizing messages into specific folders. You can see our… Read More

It doesn’t work. 🙁 Well that’s not really correct. It was broken, but they fixed it as of CiviCRM 5.56 as per the Cron issue with Joomla 4 issue. We ran into this recently — cron was all set correctly, but it just wouldn’t work. The client had CiviCRM 5.54. We just upgraded that, and now all is well.

Last Updated May 21, 2023No Comments

Upgrading a MediaWiki site to the latest version allows you to run VisualEditor, with no need for a third party Parsoid server. However, there is one fix that you may need. That is to add this line to your .htaccess file: RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} !^(VisualEditor)

Linux Upgrade on Our Servers

Last Updated March 1, 2023No Comments

We would like to inform you that we will be upgrading the operating system (Debian GNU/Linux) on all our servers from the current release Buster to the new stable release Bullseye. The upgrade process has already begun and will be completed in stages over the next few weeks. Several servers have already been successfully upgraded to the new Debian version. This upgrade will not affect most sites and software, but still, there are several important points you should have in mind and address if necessary: PHP and MySQL versions will not be updated with the OS upgrade, which means that popular software (such as WordPress, Drupal, OpenCart, Joomla, etc.) should… Read More

If you upgraded a MediaWiki installation from an older version where Parsoid was not included, youo must remove the $wgVirtualRestConfig[‘modules’][‘parsoid’] line from LocalSettings.php. You also must add the following directive to the .htaccess file: RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} !^(VisualEditor) if you have one.

CiviCRM and Drupal 10

Last Updated May 10, 2023May 10, 2023No Comments

As of this writing (January 4, 2023) it’s not possible to install CiviCRM normally on Drupal 10. There is this script: https://lab.civicrm.org/-/snippets/84 that claims to do it, but we tried that and it failed. Instead, we are installing Drupal 9.5.0 with CiviCRM for now, using this: composer create-project drupal/recommended-project:9.5.0 . composer require civicrm/civicrm-{core,packages,drupal-8}:’~5.56′ until the install procedure will be fixed for Drupal 10. . UPDATE: Now it works. See CiviCRM Works with Drupal 10.
