Setting Up Email Configuration
When attempting to configure the email for forgotten passwords, the emails don't send at all.
I have followed this set up directly. https://docs.grabaperch.com/perch/configuration/email/
I am pretty sure the problem does not lay with the host provider, as the contact form which is embedded into the website works fine.
I have tried changing the port numbers in accordance with googles support. https://support.google.com/a/answer/176600?hl=en
But every time I test the email via the settings, it just times out. 504 Gateway Error.
define('PERCH_EMAIL_FROM', 'CorrectEmail');
define('PERCH_EMAIL_FROM_NAME', 'Name');
define('PERCH_EMAIL_METHOD', 'smtp');
define('PERCH_EMAIL_HOST', 'smtp.gmail.com');
define('PERCH_EMAIL_AUTH', true);
define('PERCH_EMAIL_SECURE', 'ssl');
define('PERCH_EMAIL_PORT', 25);
define('PERCH_EMAIL_USERNAME', 'CorrectEmail');
define('PERCH_EMAIL_PASSWORD', 'CorrectPassword');
Is there anyway to debug this issue?
Many thanks.
Have you tested with something like Mailtrap.io?
I'm having a similar problem but just looking at your settings shouldn't you use port 465 if you're using smtp.gmail.com? Port 25 is only for smtp-relay.gmail.com I believe.
