Write your message below:

I wonder about the sender's address above when receiving a guestbook notification. Guestbook sender's name would be nicer

Is there a way to alter this, how?

[Henrie]

Yes, this can be altered.
You have to edit gbook.php

Find this line (line 468)

Code: Select all

mail("$settings[admin_email]","Someone has just signed your guestbook",$message);

To show the name and e-mail address of the poster as the sender of the e-mail change that line to:

Code: Select all

mail("$settings[admin_email]","Someone has just signed your guestbook",$message,"From: $name <$email>");

If you are hosted on a iis server you should read the following post

Just a note: some IIS (Windows) server don't support this, so i you are on a Windows server not receiving e-mails after this change switch back to normal.

Thanks, guys!
I am on a Linux server, not Windows.
Will do as advised.
