Phoca Forum

When I submit a new post on my localhost website copy, though the message is posted correctly in the "Phoca Guestbook --> Posts", a PHP error page is displayed with error code "2 - Could not instantiate mail function.", probably because I don't have a mail functionality on my localhost development server.
I have not tested it yet on my online production server which has mail functionality.

Setting "Phoca Guestbook --> Options --> General --> Send Email --> - No User -" does not seem to give any relief. Phoca Guestbook still seems to want to send email somewhere (indeed ... to where?).

The Phoca Guestbook version for Joomla 3 does not present the above problems.

Hi, there were no changes regarding emailing. Emails are sent per Joomla core function, so the message is displayed by Joomla core.

No user just means, the email will be not sent anywhere. It is Joomla core button which is here to remove some current value - as the field is set by Joomla core and is not editable, there is a way to clean the form field.
