Hi,

I just tried the required 3 times to install latest version 2.2 on a heavy modified 2.2rca store

uploaded all files and made all file modifications.

when first loading and click on "install" this is the message I get:



I checked my server and this file is physically there. I checked my sql and it added 3 new tables. When I go back to admin/tools/mailbeez I find the dashboard and the configuration options. However nothing that looks like I could send an Email with ;)

Is there anything I can do to find out where the problem might be?
Thanks
tom.

edit:

Well, after the second try I have set Ultimate SEO Urls use to false, as I have already read that Url rewrite might have some influence. However no changed results after that.

Hi Tom,


please download again from mailbeez.com

looks like some symbolic links did challenge me... ;-)

edit: again, but now it should work!

cheers
cord

Hi Cord,

thank you for pointing me into the right direction - I have solved the STS issue too!

Here is the solution I found across the boards:

1: open the file catalog/includes/modules/sts/sts_default.php


2: find around line 43:


if (strstr($scriptbasename, "popup")|| strstr($scriptbasename, "info_shopping_cart"))
return ''; // We don't use template for these scripts

change to:

if (strstr($scriptbasename, "popup")|| strstr($scriptbasename, "mailhive.php")|| strstr($scriptbasename, "info_shopping_cart"))
return ''; // We don't use template for these scripts



3: save the changes


Voila, everything is fine!.


Cheers
Roland

Just like to say, I have just load Mailbeez and had the STS problem. Although I did not know the problem was STS based or some other mod I have done.
I have just modified the code as above and now works great!!

This looks like a wonderful bit of kit - my thanks to Mailbeez, you can bet we will take up some of your paid for modules.
Also many thanks to RCSails for the bug fix.

Jimmy

Hi again, could do with some help please, I have changed the jpg email_header_beez.jpg and although the email is showing correctly on the pop-up, the original image is still being emailed out. Obviously, this has something to do with a cache somewhere, but I am not sure where.

Cheers

I have sorted after a bit of reading through the forum. I went to admin/modules.php and removed a random : then put it back and re-saved.
To be on the safe side, I also went to my admin section, and in the config menu, clicked on cache (which I have flagged as "false" as standard) - turn it on then back off again.

Hi jimmy,

I guess it is your email reader doing the caching. Try to modify the filename of the header image (also in the tpl)

Cheers, as I have said it is fine now, therefore the cache may have cleared overnight, the next question, if that is possible is:
On the winback module I would like to show what the last item purchased was and possible the date purchased, is there any placeholders for this item, or how do you produce a placeholder.

We have been manually sending this type of email out for a while now, and although time consuming it really does reap benefits, that is why I was so pleased to find your excellent package.

Hi jimmy,

Great you already know the value and effect of winback campaigns. What you are looking for will be part of the winback_advanced module coming out soon!

hi arthur,

actually another user reported this strange behaviour as well, but we couldn't find the reason.

Which PHP version do you use? I guess when you deactivate google analytics url rewriting you don't get that isses?

I guess somehow the regular expression of the google url rewrite is causing it - but I can't find a reason for doing that only in rare cases.

cheers

Hi arthur,

helps not really. With the following information I hope to be able to narrow down the issue:

What PHP version do you use?

Did you try to disable google analytics? (and what is the result then?)

cheers

hi thom000,

you site theme has probably CSS-styles buttons, which are not shown in the email.
Just make your own button picture and use it in the template with an absolute imagepath to that button image.

Or use a text-link.

cheers
