From OrganicDesign Wiki
If you do not select a category, group etc, but specify additional recipients emails to send to, Special:EmailArticle fails with <ea_autherror>.
Does it log what it is sending anywhere on the wiki? --Sven 14:21, 11 June 2007 (NZST)
There could be an issue with the documentation on MW for this extension, it says;
This extension uses Brent R. Matzelle's phpmailer class which you can download from OrganicDesign:Class.phpmailer.php and save as a file called class.phpmailer.php in the EmailArticle directory.
Which suggests to save Class.phpmailer.php in the EmailArticle directory. The code looks like it is looking for a subdirectory of that called phpmailer.
$wgPhpMailerClass = dirname(__FILE__).'/phpmailer/class.phpmailer.php'; # From http://phpmailer.sourceforge.net/
I got it going by downloading the phpmailer class and installing it as a sub directory to EmailArticle, I also noticed that the file class.phpmailer.php is twice as big in this download as the version on organic design --Sven
1 blank page, no email
I installed extension as well according to all of the instructions outlined and the extension will not send email. It goes to a blank page when I hit submit. Any suggestions email me at drclinks@gmail.com.

- Is the normal mediawiki mail functionality is working such as password confirmation or watchlist changes? --Nad 00:29, 6 July 2007 (UTC)
- peblusto says: this would be a perfect extension ... if i could get it working! but we also get a blank page when clicking send, and there's no outgoing email, yet other email works from the wiki, including "e-mail user". i also note that this extension only permits building a page send form for users who have confirmed their email address (doh!) otherwise it displays "...permission denied" at the bottom of the form. here's my localsettings.php lines:
include ("$IP/extensions/EmailArticle/EmailArticle.php");
$wgEmailArticleGroup = "*";
$wgPhpMailerClass = "$IP/extensions/EmailArticle/class.phpmailer.php";
any clues? has anyone seen this "blank page, no email send" problem and resolved it? thanx peblusto 20:25, 19 September 2007 (UTC)
- There seems to be a bug preventing the pseudo-groups ("*" and "user") from working. I'll try and fix that soon, but in the mean time, you can set the group to "" to allow anyone, or a real group. --Nad 10:15, 20 September 2007 (NZST)
2 Add simple switch
I installed the extension on my wiki and it works nicely. I made a few small changes to make the wording nicer and to provide a $wgEmailArticleSimple global that hides all the send to group stuff, making the extension more suitable for simple use. Here is the new code. --Rob 14:23, 19 December 2007 (NZDT)
3 There is currently no text in this page...
Extension works fine except: there is a message appearing on the top of email body (e.g. There is currently no text in this page, you can search for this page title....). What's going wrong?
