web-connected Posted December 6, 2002 Posted December 6, 2002 I have combed through endless lines of code and 44 pages of the forum and I cannot find the answer I am looking for. I am sorry this may be a duplicate, but does anyone know how to change the content of the emails sent to customers through out the order process. I would simply like to edit a few lines of text. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Have tried every possible file and even looked in the DB and I cannot find it. Am I really that blind? Thanks in Advance, John
Ajeh Posted December 6, 2002 Posted December 6, 2002 In checkout_process.php is the email from the order. Now I am a bit dimm ... so I like to break down the code line by line, which is not the *efficient* way to write it ... but it is comprehensible ... :D // lets start with the email confirmation $email_order = STORE_NAME . "n" . EMAIL_SEPARATOR . "n" . EMAIL_TEXT_ORDER_NUMBER . ' ' . $insert_id . "n" . EMAIL_TEXT_INVOICE_URL . ' ' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_ACCOUNT_HISTORY_INFO, 'order_id=' . $insert_id, 'SSL', false) . ' ' . "n" . EMAIL_TEXT_DATE_ORDERED . ' ' . strftime(DATE_FORMAT_LONG) . "nn"; if ($order->info['comments']) { $email_order .= $order->info['comments'] . "nn"; } $email_order .= EMAIL_TEXT_PRODUCTS . "n" . EMAIL_SEPARATOR . "n" . $products_ordered . EMAIL_SEPARATOR . "n"; $size = sizeof($order_totals); for ($i=0; $i<$size; $i++) { $email_order .= strip_tags($order_totals[$i]['title']) . ' ' . strip_tags($order_totals[$i]['text']) . "n"; } $email_order .= "n" . EMAIL_TEXT_DELIVERY_ADDRESS . "n" . EMAIL_SEPARATOR . "n" . tep_address_label($customer_id, $sendto, 0, '', "n") . "nn" . EMAIL_TEXT_BILLING_ADDRESS . "n" . EMAIL_SEPARATOR . "n" . tep_address_label($customer_id, $billto, 0, '', "n") . "nn"; if (is_object($$payment)) { $email_order .= EMAIL_TEXT_PAYMENT_METHOD . "n" . EMAIL_SEPARATOR . "n"; $payment_class = $$payment; $email_order .= $payment_class->title . "nn"; if ($payment_class->email_footer) { $email_order .= $payment_class->email_footer . "nn"; } } // WebMakers.com Added: Include Order # in Subject tep_mail($order->customer['firstname'] . ' ' . $order->customer['lastname'], $order->customer['email_address'], EMAIL_TEXT_SUBJECT . ' #' . $insert_id, nl2br($email_order), STORE_OWNER, STORE_OWNER_EMAIL_ADDRESS, ''); // send emails to other people if (SEND_EXTRA_ORDER_EMAILS_TO != '') { // WebMakers.com Added: Include Order # in Subject and customer's email address and phone in body tep_mail('', SEND_EXTRA_ORDER_EMAILS_TO, EMAIL_TEXT_SUBJECT . ' #' . $insert_id, $order->customer['firstname'] . ' ' . $order->customer['lastname'] . ' ' . $order->customer['email_address'] . "nn" . 'Telephone ' . $order->customer['telephone'] . "nn" . nl2br($email_order), STORE_OWNER, STORE_OWNER_EMAIL_ADDRESS, ''); } Then, go peek in /admin/orders.php I did not break this done nice and neat as I have few changes to it: $customer_notified = '0'; if ($HTTP_POST_VARS['notify'] == 'on') { $notify_comments = ''; if ($HTTP_POST_VARS['notify_comments'] == 'on') { $notify_comments = sprintf(EMAIL_TEXT_COMMENTS_UPDATE, $comments) . "nn"; } $email = STORE_NAME . "n" . EMAIL_SEPARATOR . "n" . EMAIL_TEXT_ORDER_NUMBER . ' ' . $oID . "n" . EMAIL_TEXT_INVOICE_URL . ' ' . tep_catalog_href_link(FILENAME_CATALOG_ACCOUNT_HISTORY_INFO, 'order_id=' . $oID, 'SSL') . "n" . EMAIL_TEXT_DATE_ORDERED . ' ' . tep_date_long($check_status['date_purchased']) . "nn" . sprintf(EMAIL_TEXT_STATUS_UPDATE, $orders_status_array[$status]); tep_mail($check_status['customers_name'], $check_status['customers_email_address'], EMAIL_TEXT_SUBJECT . ' #' . $oID, nl2br($email), STORE_OWNER, STORE_OWNER_EMAIL_ADDRESS); $customer_notified = '1'; } See if that helps you out ... :D
web-connected Posted December 6, 2002 Author Posted December 6, 2002 Thanks, Linda. Here is exactly what I am trying to do. I wouold like to change the text of the email (I am sure it has to be buried in there somewhere). Right now here is the email that is being sent after and order is submitted: STATEAMIND WATERSPORTS ------------------------------------------------------ Order Number: 18 Detailed Invoice: https://stateami.securesites.com/catalog/ac...php?order_id=18 Date Ordered: Friday 06 December, 2002 Products ------------------------------------------------------ 1 x Jacket Series Mainlines (hl-37150050) = $99.99 ------------------------------------------------------ Sub-Total: $99.99 Tax (7.075%): $7.07 UPS GND 1 X 5.5: $11.53 Total: $118.59 Delivery Address ------------------------------------------------------ John Pretti Payment Method ------------------------------------------------------ Cash on Delivery I would like to make it say the following: STATEAMIND WATERSPORTS Thank you for your order.

Guest Posted December 7, 2002 Posted December 7, 2002 Checkout_process.php allows you to change the text in Emails. I believe this might be what you want.
Guest Posted December 7, 2002 Posted December 7, 2002 Should I be more specific. (Uh huh - big nod) Sorry, that would be: catalog/includes/languages/english/checkout_process.php.

Just want to change what the email says so when i change the status of the order to Delivered instead of saying you items now delivered i want it has been despatced and will be with you today or tomorrow In the catalogincludeslanguagesenglishcheckout_process.php, add the following line: define('EMAIL_CUSTOM_HEADER', '<insert your own text here>'); Then in the file catalogcheckout_process.php add it in whereever you want Example: Original code for the email header // lets start with the email confirmation $email_order = STORE_NAME . "n" . EMAIL_SEPARATOR . "n" . EMAIL_TEXT_ORDER_NUMBER . ' ' . $insert_id . "n" . EMAIL_TEXT_INVOICE_URL . ' ' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_ACCOUNT_HISTORY_INFO, 'order_id=' . $insert_id, 'SSL', false) . "n" . EMAIL_TEXT_DATE_ORDERED . ' ' . strftime(DATE_FORMAT_LONG) . "nn"; if ($order->info['comments']) { New email header with your statement in it: // lets start with the email confirmation $email_order = STORE_NAME . "n" . EMAIL_CUSTOM_HEADER . "n" . EMAIL_SEPARATOR . "n" . EMAIL_TEXT_ORDER_NUMBER . ' ' . $insert_id . "n" . EMAIL_TEXT_INVOICE_URL . ' ' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_ACCOUNT_HISTORY_INFO, 'order_id=' . $insert_id, 'SSL', false) . "n" . EMAIL_TEXT_DATE_ORDERED . ' ' . strftime(DATE_FORMAT_LONG) . "nn"; if ($order->info['comments']) { You can add any definitions you want, and then use them wherever you want to. Aodhan
Aodhan Posted December 11, 2002 Posted December 11, 2002 just looked in that file how do you add txt to it then everythings defined! Just want to change what the email says so when i change the status of the order to Delivered instead of saying you items now delivered i want it has been despatced and will be with you today or tomorrow Oops... :oops: We've all been pointing you to the confirmation email sent when a customer first orders something. The files you want are adminorder.php, and adminincludeslanguagesenglishorder.php Same thing, add your own definition to the included order.php file, and then you will need to change the code in orders.php slightly $customer_notified = '0'; if ($HTTP_POST_VARS['notify'] == 'on') { $email = STORE_NAME . "n" . EMAIL_SEPARATOR . "n" . EMAIL_TEXT_ORDER_NUMBER . ' ' . $oID . "n" . EMAIL_TEXT_INVOICE_URL . ' ' . tep_catalog_href_link(FILENAME_CATALOG_ACCOUNT_HISTORY_INFO, 'order_id=' . $oID, 'SSL') . "n" . EMAIL_TEXT_DATE_ORDERED . ' ' . tep_date_long($check_status['date_purchased']) . "nn" . sprintf(EMAIL_TEXT_STATUS_UPDATE, $orders_status_array[$status]); tep_mail($check_status['customers_name'], $check_status['customers_email_address'], EMAIL_TEXT_SUBJECT, nl2br($email), STORE_OWNER, STORE_OWNER_EMAIL_ADDRESS); $customer_notified = '1'; } Basically, after the notify check (if $HTTP_POST-VARS['notify'] == 'on'), you will need another if statement. Something along the lines of if (order_type is delivered) send email with custom header else send regular email endif That will change it for you. Aodhan
