< p > This is a fork of the fanlisting PHP script < a href = "https://github.com/jemjabella/BellaBuffs" > BullaBuffs< / a > , with the email sending library < a href = "https://github.com/PHPMailer/PHPMailer" > PHPMailer< / a > integrated.< / p >
< p > BellaBuffs includes the optional features to email new members after submitting the join form, email the fanlisting admin when a new member joins or email new members when their applications were approved. The original BellaBuffs script achieved this by using PHP's built-in < code > mail()< / code > feature.< / p >
< p > This fork replaces the PHP < code > mail()< / code > functions from BellaBuffs with PHPMailer, allowing a fanlisting to send out emails with SMTP, provided the fanlisting owner chooses to enable them, even if the hosting server does not support the PHP < code > mail()< / code > function.< / p >
< p > I created this BellaBuffs fork when I was building the < a href = "https://fan.leilukin.com/cassettebeasts" > < cite > Cassette Beasts< / cite > fanlisting< / a > with BellaBuffs and hosting the fanlisting on < a href = "https://www.infinityfree.com/" > InfinityFree< / a > . I learned that InfinityFree's free hosting plan < a href = "https://forum.infinityfree.com/t/sending-email-from-your-website-php-mail/49242" > does not support PHP < code > mail()< / code > function< / a > , so incorporating PHPMailer was the solution to allow the < cite > Cassette Beasts< / cite > fanlisting to send emails.< / p >
< p > More information about my BellaBuffs fork and instructions for how to use it can be found on < a href = "https://github.com/helenclx/BellaBuffs-PHPMailer" > its GitHub repository< / a > and < a href = "https://git.32bit.cafe/Leilukin/BellaBuffs-PHPMailer" > its Gitea repository mirror< / a > .< / p >
