Does Maian Survey work with PHP7?

Is Maian Survey responsive?

It doesn`t look like it, no. But you can modify the templates if you wish to update the layout.

The system doesn`t appear to be sending mail. What can I do?

It could be that your server is not configured to send mail. Your hosting company can advise you. Also, if you are getting the error on your local server, try the system on a live server before contacting them. Alternatively, try using the SMTP options in your settings.

If you are using SMTP, you can enable mail debugging in the 'classes/mailer/class.mail.php' file.

Does Maian Survey support SMTP with TLS/SSL?

Yes, edit the 'smtp_sec' value in the 'classes/mailer/class.mail.php' file.

Can I change the text or language in the software?

Yes. Open the 'lang/english.php' file in your text editor.

Does the software support any other options of sending mail than the PHP mail function?

Yes. You can enable SMTP in your settings. If you are unsure of your SMTP settings, contact your hosting company.

Can I use html in my e-mails?

Yes you can. If you want to use HTML in your e-mail templates, you need to do the following:

1. Open up the 'inc/defined.php' & 'admin/inc/constants.php' files in a text editor.
2. Find the following variable:

define('SET_HTML', 0);

Set this var to 1, save, then re-upload. If you are having problems, revert back to plain text e-mails. Note that if you enable HTML you`ll need to break the lines in the text files using a standard HTML linebreak. ie: <br>. Failure to do this will see all the text on one line.

Can I change the width of the help tip that pops up?

Yes. Open the 'inc/defined.php' file in a text editor and adjust the following var:

define('TOOLTIP_WIDTH','475');

Can I add more fonts and font sizes for the colour schemes?

Yes. Open the 'admin/inc/constants.php' file in a text editor and add/remove options from the two arrays:

$fonts = array('Arial','Comic Sans MS','Courier New','Tahoma','Times New Roman','Verdana');
$font_sizes = array(8,9,10,12,14,16,18,20,22,24,26,28,36,48,72);

Separate values with a comma. Fonts appear in single quotes.

Can I filter out common words for the keyword analysis option?

Yes. Add common words to the 'inc/common-words.txt' file. One per line. Any word entered here is omitted when logging keywords.
