I have a suspicion: I also had change the (cron)job for the reminder mail, because the web provider changed the allowed jobs:
5,15,25,35,45,55 * * * html/[DOMAIN]/www/plugins/jevents/jevrsvppro/rsvppro/sendreminders.php
(Previously /usr/bin/curl -s http://www.[DOMAIN]/index.php?...)

Does the {LINK}hier{/LINK} statement is calculated from the path and name of the script?

Hello,

We are now on RSVP Pro 3.4.20. Can you please upgrade and upgrade to Joomla! 3.8.1 since you are at a very high hack risk.

If the issue still persists we can take a further look.

Many thanks
Tony

I know. But, this site is used by a nonprofit association, with no active support for RSVPRO. The calendar is only accessed from registered users, so the risk is minimized.

So, this is the "free" forum, I will appreciate some useful hints, specially for my guess:

Can you revert back to the JEvents version you were using which was working fine?

Many thanks
Tony

Can you revert back to the JEvents version you were using which was working fine?

Sorry, no chance.

I'm afraid there is not much we can do, you are running old software and we cannot debug it. No other user has reported such a problem and all is working well in my tests.

Many thanks
Tony

What about my question about the changed cronjob?

It's very likely that the cronjob change is related to the issue. That script was meant to be called as a webcall and not as a php system call.

You may ask your server for a way to execute it as a web call or you may create your own php script to do it for you. This document might be of help:

https://davidwalsh.name/curl-download

Also there are a few services out there tha can help you if you cannot make it work in your hosting:

https://cron-job.org/en/

And finally you may execute the call to that file from other hosting company/account on your portfolio and it will work .

Even calling it from your webbrowser or your computer should work.

If you are sure you are not going to update soon and cannot use a web call in any way for this, you can check the code for the sendreminders.php function and check around line 433. There you may find something like this:

$regex = "#{LINK}(.*?){/LINK}#s";

	preg_match($regex, $message, $matches);

	if (count($matches) == 2)

	{

		$Itemid = JRequest::getInt("Itemid");

		list($year, $month, $day) = JEVHelper::getYMD();

		$link = $row->viewDetailLink($year, $month, $day, true, $Itemid);



		if (strpos($link, "/") !== 0)

		{

			$link = "/" . $link;

		}

		if (strpos($link, "plugins/jevents/rsvppro") !== false)

		{

			$link = str_replace("plugins/jevents/rsvppro/", "", $link);

		}

		if (strpos($link, "plugins/jevents/jevrsvppro/rsvppro") !== false)

		{

			$link = str_replace("plugins/jevents/jevrsvppro/rsvppro/", "", $link);

		}

		if (strpos($link, "plugins/jevents") !== false)

		{

			$link = str_replace("plugins/jevents/", "", $link);

		}

which you should be able to modify and adapt to your needs.

Sorry we cannot provide further assistance!!
