Hey there, Awesome Customers!

Just a heads up: We'll be taking a breather to celebrate International Workers' Day (May 1st and 2nd - Wednesday and Thursday) and Orthodox Easter from Good Friday (May 3rd) through Easter Monday (May 6th). So, from May 1st to May 6th, our team will be off enjoying some well-deserved downtime.

During this time, our customer support will be running on a smaller crew, but don't worry! We'll still be around to help with any urgent matters, though it might take us a bit longer than usual to get back to you.

We'll be back in action at full throttle on May 7th (Tuesday), ready to tackle your questions and requests with gusto!

In the meantime, you can explore our documentation for Amelia and wpDataTables. You'll find loads of helpful resources, including articles and handy video tutorials on YouTube (Amelia's YouTube Channel and wpDataTables' YouTube Channel). These gems might just have the answers you're looking for while we're kicking back.

Thanks a bunch for your understanding and support!

Catch you on the flip side!

Warm regards,

TMS

    Hi Hisham Alhelabi,

    Thank you for your inquiry and sorry for not being able to answer sooner, part of our team is sick (Covid-19) and we are giving our best to answer as soon as possible.

    Issue with email notifications could be caused by several reasons:

    1. Your hosting provider is blocking all 3rd party settings, and only allowing their SMTP (or other) settings. 

    2. Your website has PHP version less than 7 

    3. The credentials are not correct 

    4. There's something else blocking the notifications from being sent. 

    5. If you're using Gmail, please make sure "Allow less secure apps" is enabled.

    Please check these points, and let me know if you were able to resolve the issue. If you're still not able to resolve the issue, we'll need to remote into your website, and see what's going on.

    If this doesn't help I will need to ask you to please provide me a temporary WP-admin (administrator) user for your site where this happens, so we could log in and take a look ‘from the inside’ as that’s the most efficient way to see and resolve the issue. 

    We do not interfere with any data or anything else except for the plugin (in case that’s a production version of the site), and of course, we do not provide login data to third parties. 

    You can write credentials here just check PRIVATE Reply so nobody can see them except us.

    Best regards.

    Kind Regards, 

    Miloš Jovanović

    Hello Hisham.

    Sorry for the late response. Our team is cut in half due to Covid-19 infections, so our response times are longer than usual. Thank you for your patience!

    The error we see when we try to send a test email is this:

    message: "SMTP Error: Could not authenticate."

    After I added my email address and password to your Notification settings, the email worked fine:

    4545615680.png

    So, the issue is related to your account.

    If the credentials you provided in your last response are correct, please try changing the password, and see if that works. If it doesn't please make sure that the "Allow less secure apps" option is enabled in your Google account.

    Kind Regards,
