 * Greetings,
 * I have a weird problem on my site using subscribe2 plugin.
    when i click the 
   submit button the page just reloads doing nothing.. i traced the issue on firebug
   and noticed the the post is sending only the ip and the email variables, and 
   ignoring the subscribe or unsubscribe variables.
 * **on my friend host** i noticed that the post variables are ip, email and subscribe
   
   ip=77.42.198.111&email=RandomEmail%40hotmail.com&subscribe=Subscribe
 * **on my host**
    ip=77.42.198.111&email=RandomEmail%40hotmail.com
 * notice what’s missing?
 * I tried to trace what is going on, but i have little knowledge in php, i’m more
   into .net and action scripting.
 * can anyone help me please, i don’t know if it’s a server problem or what, i contacted
   go daddy and the response wasn’t that useful.
 * note that i stoped all plugins when i was tracing the problem.
    my link it wellnessawareness.

 * Even though this is raised because of Subscribe2 you are asking in the wrong 
   forum as this issue comes from your server configuration.
 * From a little Googling it may be down to a ‘max_input_vars’ value in your php.
   ini file either not being set or set too low.
 * Either way I think you should pursue this with GoDaddy, after all you are paying
   them money and what they are providing isn’t working right.

 * thank you for the reply, i contacted godaddy, and since i’m using windows hosting
   they say there is no php.ini file, so inorder to do any change, i need to create
   a custom php5.ini since i’m using iis7.
 * i searched the internet for a php.ini file but couldn’t find ‘max_input_vars’
   so i added it and recycled the iis to make my changes work. to test i added a
   phpinfo.php file with a code <? phpinfo(); ?> i noticed that ‘max_input_vars’
   is not there.

 * I’m sorry to bother you but is there any special setting for form submitting 
   that should be done to the php5.ini file?
 * I’m getting to a dead end!
    thank you for any help.
