My hosting company is telling me that I need to disable the Periodic Reports or they will shut my site off. Does anybody know how to turn these things off?
thanks,
Jay

You need a new ISP http://towtalk.net ... Hosted by Zarconia.net! |
It does seem odd that this would be a problem since they are supposedly a leading host for Dolphin, but it is what I need to do know to stay afloat. |
I would give your host the finger, and find another one. That is the craziest thing i ever heard. https://www.deanbassett.com |
Who's the hosting provider you're talking about? I'm not aware of any recommended for Dolphin that imposes such restrictions. BoonEx Certified Host: Zarconia.net - Fully Supported Shared and Dedicated for Dolphin |
The host is Arvixe. They are under the impression the Dolphin script is generating SPAM and have told me that they will only host my site if I turn off all notifications. I am not sure if that is really a solution, it is just want I have to do right now. Any ideas how?
I realize I will probably need to find another host, but I need to get this on working first

Find another host. I set up an account with Arvixe last year. Our relationship was short lived, it lasted all of 30 minutes. When I was talking with them I quickly got the sense that they were going to be a problem. I looks like I was correct. Give me something to believe in... |
All, It looks like Arvixe might have a geniune compliant here. They sent me a sample of email that is going out and it is not a periodic report. They are saying that hundreds of messages like the one below were going out every second. Apparently, the Dolphin script just started sending out lots on its own. I realize that I may still need to change hosts, but right now, I just need to fix this. Is there anyway to turn off or at least significantly slow down the rate in which Dolphin sends messages? Thanks, J

Looks like the match making needs to been turned off or the precentage to match member profiles should be higher. One site I have it had to be set up to 95% for the site to stop sending so many matches. ManOfTeal.COM a Proud UNA site, six years running strong! |
Turn off the match makeing system. Admin->Settings->Matches. Uncheck the boxes and save. https://www.deanbassett.com |
Is there anyway just to turn off the email messages sent by matchmaking? Matchmaking is one of the key components of our site. I think our customers would be fine with us disabling those messages, but might rebel if we disabled the entire function. |
Yes. But requires modifying some code. https://www.deanbassett.com |
deano92964, Does your code block periodic reports only or does it also block the match making emails like the sample the ISP provided? Thanks, J |
It blocks pretty much all out going mail from the site. https://www.deanbassett.com |
deano92964,
What would be the exceptions?
