I have recently installed MHonArc 2.3.0beta to allow web access to a
majordomo mailing list I run. I have successfully installed, configured
and customized most everything without any problems and I especially love
the ability to be able to customize all of the pages.
I am having a problem however with author sorting. The subjects on the
author.html page created by MHonArc are not linked to the correct messages.
For example, listed under author1, I have a message subject that is
actually from author2, but the link to this message is to a message by
author1. Also, author2's name doesn't show up anywhere on the page.
I have searched through the archives and web site and changed numerous
resources variables but have had no luck in getting this corrected. I do
have both a main resource.rc file and an author.rc file (see below).
Also, several authors on the author sort appear more than once on the
author.html page created and I have noticed this on one of the sites listed
under the third party links as well. Is there some better way of sorting
so each author only shows once (on a file with only 12 messages, I have the
same author showing up 4 different times, all with the same exact name and
email address.
Does anyone have any ideas?
