Add text to status email

[Giorgiogg]

Hi,

i would like add different (long) text to evry order status notification

 

order

..

..

..

..

..

xxxxxxxxxxxx

 

processing

..

..

..

..

yyyyyyyyyyyy

 

sended

..

..

..

..

zzzzzzzzzzzzzz

 

 

Is possible?

 

I know that i can modify the first text in my payment module ex MODULE_PAYMENT_MONEYORDER_TEXT_EMAIL_FOOTER...but if i add text it always seems ..to long and the system gives an error.

 

And the other mail...how to change?

If the status-change text is always the same you could do it with a check in the admin page that sends the e-mail.

something like

// this is theoretical and will not actually work

if ($status_id == 1) {

                             $email = $email . MY_EXTRA_FOR_1;

}

 

Downside is you'll have to add a statement / define for each status you have.

 

You could also add a text field in the admin that gets added to the mail but that is more difficult.

i think that i had to work in /admin/order.php

 

around line 37 u can find this:

$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';

}

 

I could replace with a code similar to:

$customer_notified = '0';

if ( ($HTTP_POST_VARS['notify'] == 'on') && ($HTTP_POST_VARS['order_status_id'] == '2') ) {

$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" . EMAIL_TEXT_STATUS_UPDATE_MINE2;

tep_mail($check_status['customers_name'], $check_status['customers_email_address'], EMAIL_TEXT_SUBJECT, nl2br($email), STORE_OWNER, STORE_OWNER_EMAIL_ADDRESS, '');

elseif == '3') ) {

$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" . EMAIL_TEXT_STATUS_UPDATE_MINE3;

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';

}

 

What do u think about? and the code could be correct?

tnx
