Verification email issues and broken Logo in emails

The link to confirm the email address is not going to the domain. Instead it is linking to this http://127.0.0.1:4567/confirm/760afbc5-3704-45f2-89dd-19fe6eb33ab9

Did you set your url value in config.json to the address you are accessing the forum?

@baris thank you, It worked after I restarted nodebb

any idea on how to solve the broken logo issue?

julian

@maroonbee What is the URL of the logo in the email?

maroonbee

@julian this is the URL that's showing the broken logo

http://127.0.0.1:4567/assets/uploads/system/site-logo-x50.png

@maroonbee does that occur in the same email as the fixed confirmation link?

maroonbee

@pitaj it occurs in all emails sent from my forum.

I tested some templates here domain.com/admin/settings/email

all of them give the same error

This seemed, at first blush, to be the fix. Alas... not. Unless.....

My second thoughts, as I was unclear whether the both text and image links were so afflicted.

Good question. Now that we've been enlightened....

A couple more thoughts:

OP reports having done a "restart". Maybe try a "rebuild & restart"? Hmm.... I wonder...
How are you sending mail? Perchance are you using Postfix? If so, please drive this command:

[root@forums ~]# postconf | grep ^myhostname

Does the value for myhostname equal the value set for your forums?
If not, maybe try setting it thusly?

Shooting from the hip here... but better than a sharp stick in the eye and you've not much to loose by checking.

@gotwf I tried rebuild and restart, then sent myself a test email, but it didn't seem to work

as for sending email, I am using my email host SMTP configuration. I tried SendPulse, but that didn't work too

@maroonbee perhaps some of the ideas/concepts here may bear fruit:

NodeBB Email - Postfix Null Client

emphasis on perhaps.

have fun! o/

Is there a way to remove logo entirely from my email templates

As we can edit the templates, we should be able to remove the logo part. Can you tell me which part of the templates I would need to edit for this?
