Automatic Trigger Email Campaigns with MailBeez Modules

[twocats_us 1]

sorry for my late reply - simple didnt received any notifications as I usually do!

 

 

no, that is not how it should be. I think your linefeed settings of oscommerce email system are some wrong.

Do you have any modifications around your email function? MailBeez uses the osCommerce email engine (see mailhive/common/functions/email_engine.php)

 

cheers

Yes, I do have modifications to use the class.phpmailer.php file so I have a feeling there has to be something in there possibly. It would seem that it is sending both text and html versions together, is there supposed to be a way to send a test for either version??

 

The odd thing is, I installed the 2.5 from scratch and I didn't see any extra steps to take to get those tables installed. But I will go ahead and recopy the files over and see what happens in regards to the SQL error.

Fixed everything! Just in case anyone else has this happen, I had to add "$config->update();" to the mailbeez.php file in the admin to get the update to run. You must remove that line after it runs the one time because then all the tables you need will be inserted.

 

Then for some reason my Oscommerce 2.2 version has a messed up function for the add_html so I had to change the email_engine.php file to use add_text function instead, you then need to copy the add_text function from mail.php and copy that into the extended emailMB.php file under common/classes/oscommerce. Since I use class.phpmailer.php I then check subject lines to call the IsHTML(true) function as needed.

 

Feel free to message me directly if you ever need more details about this.

good to hear it works now! "normally" everything gets installed automatically the first time you hit the install button. looks like something went wrong so the install-routine didn't run through.

 

your adoptions are necessary since you have other non-standard modifications in your system - non-modified (at least the email class) osCommerce systems will work perfectly with MailBeez as it comes.

Hi

Am just trying to install Mailbeez to my Oscommerce site v 2.2 RC2a.

 

When I goto admin I get the following error:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_VARIABLE in /home/xpertdr1/public_html/stik-r.com/admin/includes/boxes/tools.php on line 36

 

 

This is my code - can anyone help out and advise me how to adjust things so I can do the install.

 

Thanks Helen

You're missing a closing ")" and ";" at the end of the Mailbeez link...it should look more like this...

'<a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_MAILBEEZ, '', 'NONSSL') . '">MailBeez</a><br>');

Hi Dan

Thank you for sparing the time to try and help.

 

Made that change and now I get this message:

 

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_CONSTANT_ENCAPSED_STRING, expecting ')' in /admin/includes/boxes/tools.php on line 33

 

Any further ideas?

Sounds like you're still missing a bracket on line 33....either have a look at how your original file was coded or post the code here and I'll have another look.

[♥Dan Cole 547]

I think the final bracket that you have there....the ")" two lines above the $box = new box; towards the bottom of the file should be a curly bracket...ie a "}". Try that and let me know how it works out...dan

[butchx5 0]

AAAGGGGHHHHH!!!

 

Frustrating - I now get:

 

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_CONSTANT_ENCAPSED_STRING, expecting ')' in /admin/includes/boxes/tools.php on line 33

[♥Dan Cole 547]

Not sure what your doing on your end but I made that change to the file you posted and it works fine....here is a copy if you just want to save and replace your existing tools.php file with it...dan

Hi,

 

We have installed the trustpilot module for mailbeez but get following error on our site

 

- Warning: I am able to write to the configuration file: /home/xxx/public_html/includes/configure.php. This is a potential security risk - please set the right user permissions on this file.

 

We have tried to change the file admissions to 444 and similar but it just reverse back to 644 again, we did not have that problem before installing this module

 

- Also when we click at Mailbeez link in admin, we are forwarded to the startpage of our site

This message is not related to MailBeez, the system does not change the access rights of the configure.php (MailBeez does not change any files other what you do manually)

sounds like admin rights are not set?

HI Dan,

 

so far CCGV is still the most used coupon system (it is default in almost all other platforms supported by MailBeez)

PS: "your" module is still on the roadmap... am feeling really bad about the ongoing delays

Doug, does the Smarty directory exist and does it have the required files in it?

[MailBeez 6]

Hi Douglas,

 

I agree with Dan, looks like some files are missing - must have been a transfer issue. Please try to upload all MailBeez files again.

Doug, does the Smarty directory exist and does it have the required files in it?

 

Dan

 

I have just checked and yes the file dose exist.

just so i'm on the right page with this i have install the extras folder out side the shop folder is this correct.

 

Doug

[MailBeez 6]

hi douglas,

 

the extras folder is not necessary for osCommerce.

 

you need have a structure like this:

 

catalog/mailhive/

catalog/mailhive.php

 

are you having your admin folder below the catalog folder?

 

cord

[Douglas-John Ramm 0]

Thanks for that and yes the admin folder is below the catalog folder.

 

Doug

[♥Dan Cole 547]

Doug...based on your positng above that file should be here...

 

/shop/mailhive/common/classes/Smarty_2.6.26/internals/core.write_compiled_resource.php

 

Is that where you have it? If it is you might want to upload all of the MailBeez files again as Cord suggested, since something might have happened in the original transfer process.

 

Dan
