Harry,

Is this the WEC Starter Package pre-installed Prayer Connector on the prayer page or was this manually installed and set up? Do you know if the respond button ever worked for you?

In Him,
Mark

Yes it is the pre-installed Prayer Connector. And no it never actually worked.
How do you enable it?

Ok, gang, I've got it! It seems the old Prayer Page was corrupted somehow.

I removed the old one and just added another Prayer page. Works Great!

This worked for me also!

Creating a new page fixed the problem with the "respond" button not working.I also noticed that the WEC_Starter package had a template file in the Prayer page that overwrote some CSS values as well...this was causing me grief as well.

Thanks to Harry for posting his fix!

fyi, i had deleted the page before i figured I investigate why the respond button didn't work in the original page. If i find the root cause and it's easy to fix without creating a new page...i'll post back here...

Okay, I tried to create a new page and my respond is still broken. I didn't delete the original page first, however - because it has prayer requests on it that I don't want to lose. Harry, can you tell me the steps you took that fixed the issue? Did you delete the page first? Did you change any coding or constants?

Thanks,
Sandy

Just to clarify: Are you finding that the respond button is not showing up next to any prayer requests in the prayer connector? Also, are you aware that if the person entering the prayer request does not enter an e-mail address then the respond button will not show up? The respond button only works when the person entering a prayer request provides an e-mail address. The e-mail address is needed to allow the response to be e-mailed to them.

In Him,
Mark

Here is a fix that Jeff posted in another forum, and I am reposting it here. However, this fix is an update to what he had originally posted. He has tested this and it works consistently well.

[Also, for those who have Deleted prayer Connector and Create new one mentioned above, please recheck your site because I do not know if this works or just temporarily worked because of caching. We would recommend the fix below. Also, just FYI -- you need to post at least one time, before this breaks, so try two posts in the new page. ]

If you open the file at typo3conf/localconf.php and scroll down around line 170, you'll see the following configuration for the WEC Connector and RealURL...

'74' => array(
array(
'GETvar' => 'sub',
'valueMap' => array(
'subscribe' => '1',
),
'noMatch' => 'bypass',
),

array(
'GETvar' => 'respond',
'lookUpTable' => array (
'table' => 'tx_wecconnector_entries',
'id_field' => 'uid',
'alias_field' => 'subject',
'useUniqueCache' => 1,
'useUniqueCache_conf' => array (
'strtolower' => 1,
'spaceCharacter' => '_',
),
),
'noMatch' => 'bypass',
),
),


just change this whole section change to:

'74' => array(
array(
'GETvar' => 'sub',
'valueMap' => array(
'subscribe' => '1',
'unsubscribe' => '2',
),
'noMatch' => 'bypass',
),
),


Note that the change above added an improvement from the original with the 'unsubscribe'.

You can edit this file by going to your FTP server and to the site root and it is under typo3conf/localconf.php. Or if you have quixplorer extension installed, you can edit it with that (t3quixplorer). Then make sure you do a "clear cache in typo3conf" to make this work.

Let us know if you have any other issues with the respond button.
