This will be fixed in the next update.

Please read the first post. Do you see the code?

$email   = "test@example.com";

You guys have hard-coded test@example.com into your plugin. Whenever the Debug tab is selected, an email is sent to test@example.com (which of course doesn't exist, and is bounced back).

Are you saying this is normal behavior??

The error message already provides details about the issue. I'm sorry, but there is nothing that we can provide you here.

Pinging you directly as I have seen you active recently.

Have you had the chance to look at the request above please?

I believe this issue has had a real impact on my site: recently I had database issues (see other recent ticket).

To check for any problems I went into the wpForo Debug tab, which is when the email to test@example is generated.

My hosting provider blocked outbound emails around that time, and one reason they may have done it, is email messages bounced back from test@example were seen as spam attemps from me: not nice!

Thanks,

See above for context.

Hi guys, this is related to the topic above, but the solution in that topic is wrong.

whenever I click on the 'debug' tab in wpForo, wpForo is sending an email out as per the following code

$email   = "test@example.com";
	$subject = "Email Test";
	$message = "This is a mail testing email function on server";
	if( ! wp_mail( $email, $subject, $message ) ) {
		$issues    = 3;
		$issues  = __( 'WordPress Email sending function wp_mail() doesn\'t work!', 'wpforo' );
		$issues = __( 'In most cases this is a server issue. We recommend you contact to your hosting service support team or open a support topic in wordpress.org support forum. Also there are many good articles regarding this issue in web. For example ', 'wpforo' ) . ' - <a href="https://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-fix-wordpress-not-sending-email-issue/">' . __( 'How to Fix WordPress Not Sending Email Issue', 'wpforo' ) . '</a>';

This is the code in the /admin/tools-tabs/debug.php file, so this is a specific wpForo issue.

Do you have any plans to replace the $email with a variable that contains the email used by admins?

Thanks
