I have installed Newsletter plugin to my Geeklog Site. After that i send my first letter by this plugin. In text I used images and links. But on my e-mail I got a text without images and links. In that place I see:

http://s006.radikal.ru/i215/1101/b0/87c4dc85e986.jpg

Text Formatted Code

for link:

<a onclick="return im_fixA(this);">link</a> 

for image:

<a onclick="return im_fixA(this);" title="\&quot;??????????" ????????????????="" ????????\=""><img alt="\&quot;\&quot;" height="\&quot;443\&quot;" width="\&quot;550\&quot;">

Please help me fix it. Thanks

Your images and links need to be fully qualified urls.
Correct:

Text Formatted Code
<img src="http://mysite.com/my_image.jpg"/>

Incorrect:

Text Formatted Code
<img src="../my_image.jpg"/>

Same is true for links.
Correct:

Text Formatted Code
<a href="http://mysite.com/index.php">My site</a>

Incorrect:

Text Formatted Code
<a href="/index.php">My site</a>

Coding html email is a pain. Html clients all handle html differently.
An excellent article on the matter http://articles.sitepoint.com/article/code-html-email-newsletters.

and

You are not using onclick in your links are you? That simply is not allowed in html email.
These must be what your email client/service use as replacement. I don't believe geeklog would make those replacements.

Do you get the same result with other email services like gmail, yahoo, hotmail ...

I'll PM my test email and if you can have the newsletter plugin send me a copy.

Ok, I got the newsletter.

Lets make sure geeklog is not filtering your html as its very strange that the links set in the footer by the plugin do not get stripped.

Geeklog Admin -> Configuration -> Geeklog -> Miscellaneous -> HTML Filtering -> Skip HTML Filter for Root? -> Set to TRUE

I copied the html from your newsletter the way it displays on yoursite into my test site newsletter, and it sent fine - no stripping.

Don't use the advanced editor, and try again.

I don't think its an issue with the newsletter plugin.
The plugin is displaying your saved newsletter just fine.
I even test sent the same html from within my newsletter plugin no issue.(Pm me your email and I'll send to you as well)

So the issue has to be with the email services stripping what they have determined to be unsafe content.
Hotmail replaces your image with i_safe.gif so I believe the issue lies there.

::Ben

can you send me a link for download your newsletter plugin? maybe your version is newest than 1.0.8?

P.S. could it possible that the problem is in language of my site (russian)?

Sorry, 1.0.8 is the latest.

Does your geeklog use SMTP or PHP mail?

If you don't know its most likely php mail
yoursite.com/admin/configuration.php -> Geeklog -> Site -> Mail -> Mail Settings[backend]

Forget my previous query, we can figure this out here.
go to yoursite.com/admin/mail.php
paste the contents of one of your newsletters there, and send it to yourself.
This cuts newsletter out of the equation.
