Last post by ckmatthews - June 19, 2015, 09:38:22 PM
Is this code still good with all the recent updates?

I have followed this but I have several fields and added the variables and requirements for each but when I click on "ok" after the warning box comes up it sends the form to email anyway even though it is not completely filled out.

Any thoughts?

Scripting / How To Use ALT Tags In BBCode
Last post by Dynaweb - April 09, 2015, 12:14:43 AM
One criticism of BBCode is that it does not support alt tags for images (yes, properly the alt attribute, I know).  The alt is notoriously kind for SEO purposes and also for impaired visitors.

Well, I was toying around in the forum and discovered a way to make it work.  A bit of a little hack really.

Here is the format:

[img alt=here-is-the-alt]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/d/d6/ISO_639_Icon_alt.svg[/img]

And here it is parsed below...

here-is-the-alt

If you inspect the code of the page you will see the alt attribute is present.  Do not add quotes and use dashes or underscores (although you MIGHT be able to get away with spaces in some cases).  I can confirm this works on SMF BBcode, but have not tested elsewhere.

Domain Names and DNS / How To Change Nameservers From...
Last post by Dynaweb - February 04, 2015, 09:35:34 AM
If you go to http://www.intodns.com/ and enter your domain name there you can see if any errors are returned.  Sites like intodns.com and mxtoolbox.com are designed to be reference guides only, they are not authoritative.  So even if errors show up here, if there are no problems with your domain services and functionality, there is no need to change anything.  However, we have noticed that users in some markets such as Australia .com.au domains are experiencing periodic problems while using the round-robin DNS (yin.ssl1.us and yang.ssl1.us).

It appears that the .au authority is implementing changes in standards recently that effectively drops support for our round-robin style dns/nameservers system.  For best results, we suggest changing the nameservers. 

Here is how:

(If your domain name is registered with us, simply open a ticket requesting nameserver change and we will take care of everything for you)

===  HOW TO CHANGE NAMESERVERS FROM ROUND ROBIN TO STATIC

1) Log in to your domain name registrar.  Navigate to the "Nameservers" management area.  Edit the nameservers:

Remove these
YIN.SSL1.US
YANG.SSL.US

Replace with these
NS1CP3.SSL1.US
NS2CP3.SSL1.US

Save the changes.

2) Open a support ticket listing the domains you require changed and we will make the appropriate corresponding changes to namesevers on the server DNS.

You will not experience any downtime or disruption of service because we are not changing server or IP address.

Linux Hosting / Is the Ticket System working?
Last post by Daniel - January 09, 2015, 06:26:39 PM
Hello,

I have raised two support tickets one this Wednesday and one this morning. Both are there and are "in progress" but there has been no reply yet.

Something is eating up my allocated disk space and I can't see what it is.

Now I'm receiving:

Disk quota exceeded

messages.

And  I'm not receiving a response from the support department. What should I do?

Email and Webmail / How To Enable SpamAssassin in ...
Last post by Dynaweb - January 06, 2015, 12:44:49 AM
If you are looking for a way to lessen the amount of unwanted SPAM messages to your inbox, SpamAssassin can be a great help.

SpamAssassin is a powerful, automated mail filter that helps identify and flag unsolicited email (spam) before it hits your inbox. Both cPanel and Plesk offer built-in integration with SpamAssassin for easy setup.
This guide walks you through enabling SpamAssassin on your hosting account, depending on whether you're using cPanel or Plesk.

📌 For cPanel Users
  • Log in to your cPanel account.
    yourdomain.com/cpanel(or via the link in your myHostNed Portal)
  • Navigate to the "Spam Filters" section under the Email category.
  • Click "Process New Emails and Mark them as Spam" to enable Apache SpamAssassin™.
  • Optionally, you can:
    • Enable Auto-Delete to automatically remove spam emails above a certain score.
    • Adjust the Spam Threshold Score (default is 5; lower = more strict).
    • Add whitelisted or blacklisted email addresses.
  • Changes take effect immediately.
🔗 Official cPanel Spam Filters Documentation

🧭 For Plesk Users
  • Log in to your Plesk control panel.
    https://yourdomain.com:8443
  • Go to Mail > select the domain name > click Mail Settings.
  • Check the box labeled "Switch on spam filtering for this email address".
  • You can adjust the following options:
    • Spam filter sensitivity
    • What to do with spam messages (move to spam folder, delete, or mark in subject line)
    • Whitelist/Blacklist email addresses or domains
  • Save your changes.
🔗 Official Plesk Spam Filter Documentation

📝 Notes & Best Practices
  • Whitelist important contacts to prevent false positives.
  • Check your spam folder regularly—SpamAssassin isn't perfect, and some legitimate mail may get flagged.
  • Adjust the sensitivity settings if you notice too much or too little spam being filtered.
  • If you're managing multiple email accounts, configure filters per account for more control.

❓Need Help?
Open a support ticket if you'd like assistance configuring SpamAssassin or tuning it for your specific needs. We're happy to help!

🔐 For hosting with SpamAssassin pre-installed, check our Web Hosting Plans


NOTICE: As with any technology that uses pattern recognition (like antivirus software), there is always a small chance of false positives. This means that legitimate emails may be mistakenly marked as spam and placed in your Spam folder.

For this reason, we do not recommend enabling the "Auto-Delete" option in SpamAssassin. Instead, we advise users to regularly review the contents of their Spam folder before permanently deleting any messages.
Being cautious can help prevent important messages from being lost.
