ptt81 Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 (edited) I have a future module request to do the following, it can be all in one module or separate, prefer separate modules or option to include one or more of these options. 1. User select products from the current specials (specials are set within admin using stock feature), with search box to easily find the product. 2. User select newly added products, with search box to easily find the product. 3. Option to display the cross-selling product if the selected product is related (already set in cross-selling) 4. User select any products to the emails, with search box to easily find the product. It is similar to this module which im using: http://addons.oscommerce.com/info/3398 but this one is very hard to select a product because of the very long list. Keep up the good work and congrat on your new born! Edited November 20, 2010 by ptt81 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nextwave Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 hey thats a pretty good idea ability to add then change the prodocts that are included in the auto emails template so you can send a "havent seen you in a while" cupon email or the "howd we do please review" email and it will automatically include some product thumbs to pique the recipients interest... what do you think cord?

MailBeez Posted November 20, 2010 Author Share Posted November 20, 2010 hi ptt & kym, some good ideas there! that is absolutely possible to implement and MailBeez Version 2.0 will come with some internal features to allow building all those ideas on top of. Am also sure that they will lead to more revenue for probably every shop. What is missing to make things happen is just time & money, whereas time comes with money... so far the development of MailBeez has been a lot of fun for me, but donations, premium downloads, and custom module dev has been very limited and are not justifying my efforts :'( Wonder if you or someone else have any ideas how I could get financed all the features people are requesting but so far not willing to pay for? The "opensource is financed by consulting services" seems not to be true for MailBeez... PS: the small one is doing good, but taking a lot of time ;-) Quote MailBeez Automatic Trigger Email Campaigns (CRM) with Modules BeezDesk CRM Customer Insight CE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A handful I'm sure. ;) Regarding Mailbeez...hopefully the module you're working on will give things a much needed boost....I'd hate to see the development of such a worth while program waver because of a lack of support on the funding side of things. I hope that everyone who is using Mailbeez is at least making a PayPal contribution go keep the project going and show their support. Dan Quote Need help?

MailBeez Posted November 21, 2010 Author Share Posted November 21, 2010 (edited) hi dan & all, Dan: the requirements of the MailBeez module I develop for you is a major driver for MailBeez Version 2.0 - and your serious (!) funding a great motivation as well! But unfortunately this is still a major exception even while having people reporting about their growth in revenue through using the free MailBeez Modules. My current strategy is to keep the MailBeez Framework with basic modules for free and offer all more advanced features and modules as premium downloads (OpenSource) with price-tags below 100USD (so cheaper than hiring someone to develop the same functionality). That allows everyone to use MailBeez for free and decide when & where to invest into getting more revenue. The very advanced ones (like Dan's) with major development efforts will probably be ion-cubed (closed source) with a license model based on e.g. number of customers. This would allow startups to have cheap entry price-tag using these growth enabler. The estabilished shops would than need to pay an appropriate license price, but will probably have a very high return of investment and payback time (just assuming a small percentage more revenue from using the Module). The OpenSource Code would be available on special agreements. I know Ioncube is not everyone's favorite thing but I can't see any other option to get a fair payment for my work. Any ideas on this? regards cord PS: the small one is really a hand full, but helps to have the experience from my first child ;-) Edited November 21, 2010 by MailBeez Quote MailBeez Automatic Trigger Email Campaigns (CRM) with Modules BeezDesk CRM Customer Insight CE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Status: 302 Moved TemporarilyLocation: http://[mywebsitesaddress.com]/myblockedipaddresses.php Content-type: text/html For security purposes, when I first set up the store I changed the path to my admin folder. Seems that could cause a problem possibly? I am also using the IP Trap add on which traps ip addresses that try and access my admin folder. Again, which is not really the admin folder.

skylarkBlue Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 Hello Everyone, This is a great module set. I have the birthday module working. I hope someone can give me some help on a new module I am writing. I have created another query in the new module $query_message_raw = "select m.id, m.date_created, md.message_id, md.message_name from " . TABLE_MESSAGES . " m, " . TABLE_MESSAGES_DESCRIPTION . " md where m.id = md.message_id and date(m.date_created)=date(now()) ORDER BY date(m.date_created) ASC"; $query_message = mh_db_query($query_message_raw); this query gets the quote for the day to email to anyone who signs up for it. I can't get the message_name (which is the quote for the day) to appear in the body of the email. Everything else works. Any help at all would really be appreciated.

But, I do not receive a copy from mailhive confirming email was sent. Also, after cronless runs the cron.... mailhive still shows that recipients will receive an email. When I manually visit the url the mailbeez runs all active modules with no problems. Hope that's not too confusing... Thanks for the help cord. Quote That "Can" you're about to open... has worms!

Guest Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 Hello Cord, I have an issue with trustpilot module. When I select at the admin Default Customer Language es-ES, if I send a test email it shows email: customer@mail.com order_id: 123456 order_date: 12.12.2000 status_date: 31.12.2000 TP_LANG: en-GB TP_DELAY: 0 (en-GB as languaje). It makes that Trustpilot invitation email is in English, and the link for customers to put their review is pointing to uk trustpilot site, in English. I asked Trustpilot to correct that, and they told me to ask you. I tried to change the html of the template, without success, but I prefer to have a well made solution.

Thank you very much hi henry, the TP-LANG value is taken dynamically from your configuration - do you have any configuration cache in your system? you can send me your admin/modules.php and I can check. there is no need to change the template of the trustpilot module, since only a trigger is send to trustpilot. cheers cord PS: am finalizing MailBeez 2.0 - would you be interested in translating the admin into spanish?
