The answer fo shadow refers to the directory where the module can be found. But you didn't exactly explain what you're looking for. Are you looking for the module to set up a newsletter? So you got to go to admin->tools->newsletters manager. Hope that was english to you even though I'm german... ;)

I need to install the module i guess because i went to ADMIN-TOOLS-Newsletter manager and it opened so i can create a newsletter, but when i click SAVE it says i do not have the NEWSLETTER MODULE.

The module you're looking for is located in admin/includes/modules/newsletters/. The filename is newsletters.php and should be installed by default to the mentioned folder. If not, you can copy it from the installation package. It does not need to be installed in any way, just copy it to the folder.

Here is where the problem is. I now have the module in the correct folder, but when i open the newsletter manager I am still able to create the newsletter, but when i go to save it, a little red bar appears at the top of my screen telling me that the newsletter module is required.

Lindsay, you are looking in the wrong file. The correct file for that fix should be admin ->newsletters.php.

 

Look for on line 41:

if (empty($module)) {

 

and change it to:

if (empty($newsletter_module)) {

 

I just did it myself and it works perfectly.

Can you check the path to the email to make sure that it is actually being sent?

Nobody receives my newsletters (sent from the newsletter manager) nor emails sent out from the "send email" tool in admin. I think it might have something to do with my hosting company.

 

I found a better solution for Newsletters though. My host has Phplist already installed (or you can go to their official site http://www.phplist.com/ to download) and all I had to do was to integrated with oscommerce using this contribution (http://www.oscommerce.com/community/contributions,3976/category,all/search,phplist).

 

After you integrated with Oscommerce, it will automatically add your customer's emails to the phplist database allowing you to send html (or text) newsletters.

 

Hope this helps.

may. that is a GREAT idea - i never thought of that.

 

cutie, First, i would go to the E-MAIL OPTIONS in the admin control panel. It is located under CONFIGURATION. Make sure that the EMAIL TRANSPORT METHOD is set to SEND MAIL and the SENDMAIL is set to true.

 

If you configuration is not like how i described, change hat and then try to send mail.

 

If not, i will try to explain how to find the path that your email is trying to be sent.
