multimixer Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 I worked out some solutions for mails, they are already posted all around the forum, now I want to share them in a organized way. I hope somebody will find this useful. A. How to get a notification when a person register. 1) Set up the "extra order emails" feature in Admin/my store 2) In file catalog/create_account.php Find the lines 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); Place after // BOF multimixer 24.6.2009 send emails to other people $owners_text = EMAIL_TEXT_OWNER_INFO . "\r\n" .EMAIL_TEXT_CUSTOMER_NAME . ' ' . $name . "\r\n" . EMAIL_TEXT_CUSTOMER_EMAIL . ' ' . $email_address . "\r\n" . EMAIL_TEXT_CUSTOMER_PHONE . ' ' . $telephone . "\r\n" . EMAIL_TEXT_CUSTOMER_ADDRESS . ' ' . $street_address . "\r\n" . EMAIL_TEXT_CUSTOMER_CITY . ' ' . $city . "\r\n" . EMAIL_TEXT_CUSTOMER_STATE . ' ' . $state . "\r\n" . EMAIL_TEXT_CUSTOMER_COUNTRY . ' ' . $country; if (SEND_EXTRA_ORDER_EMAILS_TO != '') { tep_mail('', SEND_EXTRA_ORDER_EMAILS_TO, EMAIL_OWNER_SUBJECT, $owners_text, STORE_OWNER, STORE_OWNER_EMAIL_ADDRESS); } // EOF multimixer 3) In file catalog/includes/laguages/yourlanguage/create_account.php Put before the end // mm 24.6.09 define('EMAIL_OWNER_SUBJECT', 'New registration' ); define('EMAIL_TEXT_OWNER_INFO', 'New customer registration, find details below:'); define('EMAIL_TEXT_CUSTOMER_NAME', 'Name:' ); define('EMAIL_TEXT_CUSTOMER_EMAIL', 'email:' ); define('EMAIL_TEXT_CUSTOMER_PHONE', 'Phone:' ); define('EMAIL_TEXT_CUSTOMER_ADDRESS', 'Address:'); define('EMAIL_TEXT_CUSTOMER_CITY', 'City:' ); define('EMAIL_TEXT_CUSTOMER_STATE', 'State:'); define('EMAIL_TEXT_CUSTOMER_COUNTRY', 'Country:'); This will send an email to the additional email as set in admin for every new customer registration. Because you don't want to read each time the "hello bla bla" text that the customer receives, it contains just the useful information, name, email etc My community profile | Template system for osCommerce - New: Responsive | Feedback channel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
multimixer Posted June 24, 2009 Author Share Posted June 24, 2009 B. What to do if you don't receive mails send via the contact us form In the most of the cases, there is the host involved, who doesn't permit mails to be send from your site having as a "sender" somebody'w else mail address. Thats the way it is defined in osc What to do? 1) in file catalog/contact_us.php Find the code if (tep_validate_email($email_address)) { tep_mail(STORE_OWNER, STORE_OWNER_EMAIL_ADDRESS, EMAIL_SUBJECT, $enquiry, $name, $email_address); Replace it with // BOF multimixer// //define variable $email_body// $email_body = $enquiry .

multimixer Posted June 25, 2009 Author Share Posted June 25, 2009 F. New order email: How to receive a different content on the store owner side. Lets say you have your "thank you for ordering mail" stuffed with alot of text and instructions etc. Do you want to read this each time a customer orders? Maybe you send this mail to your warehouse and you don't want to have this bla bla each time. This here sends just the useful information. It includes also the customer ID into the strore owners version of the mail, can be useful. 1) In file catalog/checkout_process.php Find following lines. Attention, do not mix with the original tep mail function that is sending mails to customers // send emails to other people if (SEND_EXTRA_ORDER_EMAILS_TO != '') { tep_mail('', SEND_EXTRA_ORDER_EMAILS_TO, EMAIL_TEXT_SUBJECT, $email_order, STORE_OWNER, STORE_OWNER_EMAIL_ADDRESS); } Replace it with this // BOF Multimixer 25.6.2009. send emails to other people $email_store .= EMAIL_TEXT_STORE_INTRO .

multimixer Posted June 30, 2009 Author Share Posted June 30, 2009 Tried this but no luck, i still do not get any emails via the contact us formalso not on a secondary email address, and also no email send when i send them via the admin section to customers. In the most of the cases there is the host involved and not osc. Many hosts do not permit emails to be send via the site they host, using a mail account they do not host You can check following: 1) Put a email address in the "store" AND "from" field (in the admin panel) that uses the same domain as your osc do, like [email protected] 2) Turn HTML formatting off 3) Try around with the remaining email settings in your admin panel First you need to succeed to send a mail to a customer via the admin, before you start to make any changes to the code My community profile | Template system for osCommerce - New: Responsive | Feedback channel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wemseo Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 Hello George EXCELLENT COMPILATION on E-mail features/changes. Thank you very much for that - exactly what I was looking for. This, also, brings back the hopes in me that I might get an answer to my posted Q with regards to setting up extra contact forms. I have "EP" (extra pages) installed and everything works great, except, any form that I create within its FCK-editor will not be sent to my "store" email address. (initially I thought that EP would share the same files as the core OSC for sending mail via the normal "contact us" form, but I was proven wrong with my assumption). Hence, I wonder if you have an answer to what files need to be (and how) "altered/created and added", so any additional form that was created with EP's FCK-editor can be sent, too. I try to set up a special "Product Request" form. A form clients can use to suggest any products to be added to my store which currently are not offered. This form should also allow the client to upload and attach an image of the requested product. HMMM, I ask a lot... :blush: Have a great day Norbert In the most of the cases there is the host involved and not osc. Many hosts do not permit emails to be send via the site they host, using a mail account they do not host You can check following: 1) Put a email address in the "store" AND "from" field (in the admin panel) that uses the same domain as your osc do, like [email protected] 2) Turn HTML formatting off 3) Try around with the remaining email settings in your admin panel First you need to succeed to send a mail to a customer via the admin, before you start to make any changes to the code Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

multimixer Posted July 8, 2009 Author Share Posted July 8, 2009 Well, to tell you exactly whats going on, I need to know whats written in line 223, like the error message says. It's like you have a very large contact_us.php What I can see is tha you have 2 tep mail functions. The one is this one //BOF Multimixer// // $enquiry replaced by $email_body Includes $email_body to message instead of $enquiry. $email_address replaced by $from_email Email is getting send from $from-email instead of $email_address// if (tep_validate_email($email_address)) { tep_mail(STORE_OWNER, STORE_OWNER_EMAIL_ADDRESS, EMAIL_SUBJECT, $email_body, $name, $from_email); //EOF multimixer// and the other one is in the captcha modification if (tep_validate_email($email_address) & ($resp->is_valid)) { tep_mail(STORE_OWNER, STORE_OWNER_EMAIL_ADDRESS, EMAIL_SUBJECT, $email_body, $name, $from_email); So, one thing is, you keep just the second mail function and try again.

ivyfleur Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 Thanks for the reply George. Line 223 was the last line after I added the mod in the contact us php. That line was essentially blank!!

♥ecartz Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 An unexpected end is the kind of error that you get when you have an open {, (, [, or whatever without close. It will always be on the last line of the file, because it is saying that it got to the end of the file without finding the closing }. It's a parser error, saying that the file was structurally invalid. If you look at the code that you posted, you have one more { than }. It was introduced by the if that you added. Always back up before making changes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dicko_md Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 Hi I was wondering how I could remove the email from the orders.php in the admin folder as my merchant sends the email of the order when it comes back into my store....so at the moment I get 2 emails sent to the customer.

The reason I want to keep the one I want is that it has a lot more info included into the email that is sent to the customer. Thanks Dicko If you want to disable the email send to a customer when he makes an order (order confirmation email) then the admin/orders.php is the WRONG place to do it. The mail is getting generated in checkout_process.php Find the line tep_mail($order->customer['firstname'] . ' ' . $order->customer['lastname'], $order->customer['email_address'], EMAIL_TEXT_SUBJECT, $email_order, STORE_OWNER, STORE_OWNER_EMAIL_ADDRESS); And comment t out with // My community profile | Template system for osCommerce - New: Responsive | Feedback channel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
♥altoid Posted July 15, 2009 Share Posted July 15, 2009 In the most of the cases, there is the host involved, who doesn't permit mails to be send from your site having as a "sender" somebody'w else mail address. Thats the way it is defined in osc George... I am having email issues and your post is timely and helpful. Would it do any good to contact my host and if so, what exactly should I tell them so they know what to check on? Thanks I am not a professional webmaster or PHP coder by background or training but I will try to help as best I can. I remember what it was like when I first started with osC. It can be overwhelming. However, I strongly recommend considering hiring a professional for extensive site modifications, site cleaning, etc. There are several good pros here on osCommerce.

♥altoid Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 B. What to do if you don't receive mails send via the contact us form Hello, I am having the Contact Us problems and inserted the code in post number 2. Still doesn't work. Before doing that I contacted my host and they looked into the matter and here's there response to me: We checked e-mail functionality using a mail test script at. We choose both send mail and SMTP options and we were able to send the e-mail to your mailbox using both from the test script. It looks like there in something in the osCommerce application blocking the e-mails from receiving in the mailbox. Unfortunately, we do not give support for third party application. Please contact your Web master or application vendor to resolve the issue from your end. My settings are: E-Mail Transport Method sendmail E-Mail Linefeeds LF Use MIME HTML When Sending Emails false Verify E-Mail Addresses Through DNS false Send E-Mails true Thanks in advance for any ideas on this.

♥altoid Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 have you tried altering the contact_us.php files as suggested?that in combination to my Host allowing scripts for email through my site did the trick for me.. Hello and yes I did alter the contact_us.php file. I put in a ticket to my host yesterday and they worked on it quite a bit, even trying out a test_email.php they wrote to see if it would go out. That worked but the Contact Us still didn't. What did your host do from their side. Perhaps there's something there that I could suggest to them.

Indrador Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 Hi all, im very new with osCommerce and thought I have handled any kind of problems but i have a problem with the emails, i haven't any idea of sending mails via php. I want a "freetext" in my confirmation mails but i have no idea how I can add a text or where to add a txt. I have already searched and read this topic. I just fount in the email.php this part: LINE 143 /** 144 * Adds plain text. Use this function 145 * when NOT sending html email 146 */ 147 148 function add_text($text = '') { 149 $this->text = tep_convert_linefeeds(array("\r\n", "\n", "\r"), $this->lf, $text); 150 } But I dont know what it means I guess I have to write this in the checkout_process.php.... Can anybody help a newbie? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
multimixer Posted July 23, 2009 Author Share Posted July 23, 2009 I want a "freetext" in my confirmation mails but i have no idea how I can add atext or where to add a txt. In post Number 3 you can read how to add text to the order confirmation email at the top and bottom. You can pick what you want and insert it to the files mentioned there. If you take the "complete" suggestion, you will have also the customers mail and phone in this email, and I think thats not bad to know.

♥altoid Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 have you tried altering the contact_us.php files as suggested?that in combination to my Host allowing scripts for email through my site did the trick for me.. Still working with the Contact Us page not working here. The host did some checking, ran some tests and advised the problem is probably somewhere in the php. They are probably correct. I installed a test oscommerce store yesterday and from that test store, the Contact Us page does work. So I am going to have to look through things to see what might have been changed by me in my store, via add ons, etc along the way. Thanks...
