dahui Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 the php specialsits may gladly correct this little howto, as this if definately from a beginner for beginners only! :-" by default osc is not sending an email to the admin on account opening, only on order placement, presuming in admin 'Send Extra Order Emails To' in mystore configuration is filled with an email address. if so, we could use this address and functionality to receive email on account opening as well. this could be easily done by altering 2 files (for single language + 1 for every additional language) these 2 files are: catalog/create_account.php catalog/includes/languages/english/create_account.php let's start with the catalog/create_account.php search for the code about line 232 // build the message content $name = $firstname . ' ' . $lastname; if (ACCOUNT_GENDER == 'true') { if ($gender == 'm') { $email_text = sprintf(EMAIL_GREET_MR, $lastname); } else { $email_text = sprintf(EMAIL_GREET_MS, $lastname); } } else { $email_text = sprintf(EMAIL_GREET_NONE, $firstname); } $email_text .= EMAIL_WELCOME . EMAIL_TEXT . EMAIL_CONTACT . EMAIL_WARNING; tep_mail($name, $email_address, EMAIL_SUBJECT, $email_text, STORE_OWNER, STORE_OWNER_EMAIL_ADDRESS); tep_redirect(tep_href_link(FILENAME_CREATE_ACCOUNT_SUCCESS, '', 'SSL')); } } this will build the mail to customer on account creation we have to add some code to it: if (SEND_EXTRA_ORDER_EMAILS_TO != '') { $email_text2 = EMAIL_TEXT2; tep_mail('shopadmin', SEND_EXTRA_ORDER_EMAILS_TO, 'A new account has been created!', $email_text2, STORE_NAME, STORE_OWNER_EMAIL_ADDRESS); } so what does it do? if (SEND_EXTRA_ORDER_EMAILS_TO != '') { will check of the mail in admin is set or empty if it is set than we will start with a new variable called $email_text2 that will refer to EMAIL_TEXT2, which we will fill later in the language file $email_text2 = EMAIL_TEXT2; then the tep_mail function will prceed the email to us with the following parameters: tep_mail('shopadmin', SEND_EXTRA_ORDER_EMAILS_TO, 'A new account has been created!', $email_text2, STORE_NAME, STORE_OWNER_EMAIL_ADDRESS); to: shopadmin to mailaddress: as set in admin for extra order mail subject: A new account has been created! content: Variable $email_text2 (we will fill that in langauge file right now) from: STORE_NAME as set in admin from mailaddress: STORE_OWNER_EMAIL_ADDRESS as set in admin so the new // build the message content in create_account.php should look like this: // build the message content $name = $firstname .

' Lastname : ' . $lastname . ' Date of Birth : ' . $dob . ' Address : ' . $street_address . ' Postcode : ' . $postcode . ' City : ' . $city . ' eMail-Address : ' . $email_address . ' Telefonnumber : ' . $telephone . ' Telefaxnumber : ' . $fax . ' LOGIN : ' . $email_address . ' PASSWORT : ' . $password . ' '); no need to explain what you will see in the mail ;) Voila thats it! hope it'll be usefull for at least one of you out there. any comments, critics, advises, corrections ... welcome, I STILL DO LEARN TOO ;) dahui Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
