Update Order Emails

[andyslade]

I have installed oscommerce 2.3.4 and added the order editor module. I wished to change the format of the order update email sent to the customer and found that the HTML email format was not working as expected. On investigation I found that the file catalog/admin/edit_order.php contained the lines..

           if (EMAIL_USE_HTML == 'true') {    
             //Prepare HTML emai
             require('includes/modules/email/html_orders.php');
             $email = $html_email_orders;

However, I cannot find any includes/models/email folder. Searching the forums and internet also could not find any reference to the file html_orders, which I assume is designed to format the email in HTML format ready for sending.

Can anyone shed some light on this?

This is not part of the stock code in osC so will probably be part of the add-on you installed. Check to be sure it's in the zip file you down loaded and has been copied over to the right path. Also many of the add-on's are no full packages! some only include the updated files so make sure you downloaded a full packeage.

Also consider using the updated comunity version of the code. https://www.oscommerce.com/Products

Thanks JcMagpie. Looking into it further, I discovered that the Mail manager add on I installed required another addon which had the missing files. The Mail Manager instructions did not say that the other add on was required. I can now further invest the reasons why I can't get the emails to work properly.
