read.php/episode message fix

Post by flying tiger comics »

Hi,

I noticed that in the email sent to tell you a new episode has been made, it had only put read.php<episode info> and no the full path.

Not sure if that's due to my site being a https and not a http but I couldn't see anything in the code that indicated that.

My fix is below:

ORIGINAL CODE: line 697
$readEpisodeURL . "?episode=" . $episode . "\n" .

CHANGED CODE:
"<full directory path to where read.php is>" . $readEpisodeURL . "?episode=" . $episode . "\n" .

so for example for mine the changed code reads

"https://thezombienomicon.com/eas/" . $readEpisodeURL . "?episode=" . $episode . "\n" .

That results in a functional link within the email to the specific new episode.

Thanks for that. As Sir Toby doesn't look in here very often these days, it might be a good idea to open an issue on GitHub as suggested in the "2016 Extend-A-Story Development Update" thread.
