Jack_mcs Posted March 14, 2005 Share Posted March 14, 2005 This is the support thread for this contribution, which generates customer and order reports. The reports are attached to an email which may be saved as a csv file. It also has a module to send emails to your customers automatically. I use this for birthday announcements but it can be edited to suit any purpose. All of this is accomplished via cron so this will not work on a Windows server.

dave111 Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 I'm having issues with the filename, for some reason my server keeps renaming the file to "ATT****.dat" All the data is there, but kind of annoying, any ideas how to fix? I havent changed any of the filename info auto_orders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack_mcs Posted August 8, 2005 Author Share Posted August 8, 2005 No, I'm not sure where that gets changed at. The sript I use marks it as an excel file but that is changed at some point. Mine come is with type .att (attachement) so I suspect if is the email program doing it. It may not understand the mime type as it is set.

dave111 Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 BTW added a new version to this: Modified the orders sent to picked up orders even if customer used PWA checkout. Also pulled out order status so that orders are only picked up once *no matter what status they have*. Adding the following fields to the order CSV/email: date purchase, Street Address, City, Postcode, State, Country, Telephone, Email. The last version was fully functional, so you may want to test both versions to see which works best for you. Only file changed is auto_orders.php, but this download includes the full package.

dave111 Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 Also the filetype wasnt to do with the email app it was making sure the mimetype in the script matches the mimetype name on the server. Default mime type for excel on most servers is: application/vnd.ms-excel (however it seems better to have the file send as a .csv not .xls, so just set up a new mimetype for csv and make the script match this type) i hope this makes sense.

Jack_mcs Posted October 16, 2005 Author Share Posted October 16, 2005 I just uploaded a new version. I added an interface to the options in admin. Once installed, you can change the settings as you like and receive the reports with the next cron update. I plan on adding other options to the reports but wanted to get some feedback on how this works before I spent too much time on it.

Jack_mcs Posted November 3, 2005 Author Share Posted November 3, 2005 Try $oFCKeditor -> BasePath = 'FCKeditor/'; I'm not sure why you changed the fckeditor.phpfile. I can't find that in the instructions but maybe I'm mssing it..

Jack I happen to get the editor to show trying to find the right path I used require("../../public_html/admin/FCKeditor/fckeditor.php"); Some files were also missed when installing FCKeditor I'm now installing all the files I downloaded will recleck installation.

Jack_mcs Posted November 3, 2005 Author Share Posted November 3, 2005 You should never need to use the full path like that from within the shop, except for in the configure files. It may work but should not be needed. That would indicate something else is wrong.

I,m also getting this error when updating email in announce when page updating Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded in /home/xxxxxxxx/public_html/admin/auto_emailer_announce.php on line 103 Thank You.

Jack_mcs Posted November 3, 2005 Author Share Posted November 3, 2005 The hosts limits how long a script can run and you are exceeding that. It shouldn't happen though the way the contribtution is set up though unless you have a large number of customers with the same birthdate or join date, but that would have to be quite large.

Jack Thanks still in the testing zone trying to learn this great contri. Just want to know how to exactly use this my main Ideal is I get new products every week so I want to send member customers an email update This email goes out once a week I'm not sure if this will do it for me. Thank You Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack_mcs Posted November 4, 2005 Author Share Posted November 4, 2005 That's a good idea of a use for it but it can't do it as it is set up now. A new module would be needed that is a cross between the announcemnt and report options, or you could edit the announce module to load in the new products and include those in the email. I'll put that on the list for the next version but it may be months before it happens.

Jack_mcs Posted December 24, 2005 Author Share Posted December 24, 2005 I've uploaded a new version. I added a new products module which will inform your customers of new products added since an entered date, or from todays date if one is not entered. Also corrected a few minor coding problems.

Richard Bailey Posted December 24, 2005 Share Posted December 24, 2005 How about an option to auto email customers 1 week (moth whatever) after they ordered asking them to review the product? This pulls them back into the site and helps generate content.... Rich.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack_mcs Posted December 24, 2005 Author Share Posted December 24, 2005 Another good idea. I will plan it in the next update.

azer Posted December 24, 2005 Share Posted December 24, 2005 it seems to be a good feature taht i can read here , but do u plan to make it multi language, or being able to do like in newsletters some tempalte that you can save in the admin ? so far i can see that the messages u email are hard coded in the files ... for the fck editor, there is contribution that would help you customize your installation :-) Quote MS2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack_mcs Posted December 24, 2005 Author Share Posted December 24, 2005 Are you sure you are looking at the correct contribution? The FCKEditor is used and the text is not hard coded. Well, for the most part. There are a fewl Hello's but that would be easily changed.
