aspiringarts Posted July 7, 2004 Share Posted July 7, 2004 And what, Kavita, is this supposed to do? Thanks, SUsan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jennyfeet Posted July 7, 2004 Share Posted July 7, 2004 Kavita, should that be added within catalog/subscription_center.php, or catalog/includes/languages/english/subscription_center.php? What will it do? Thanks... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kagg Posted July 7, 2004 Share Posted July 7, 2004 The line should be added to /catalog/subscription_center.php. This line passes the email address of the customer to be unscribed/subscribed. Actually the line is already there in the file, but after the closing of form. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jennyfeet Posted July 7, 2004 Share Posted July 7, 2004 Kavita, thanks, when the customer subscribes/unsubscribes their choice is passed along to the db. My question is this: the customer gets no verification that their choice has been logged, they are just returned to the same page they were on. Is there any functionality built for them to receive verification? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kagg Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 When the customer returns to the same page subscription_center.php after unsubscribing.... they have been dispalyed as "unsubscribed" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lparks Posted July 10, 2004 Share Posted July 10, 2004 What about in the Admin section under newsletter. When I click on any of the links I get a page that says forbidden.php ???? What's up with that? Has anyone corrected this issue. How do I actually edit the Newsletter via the Admin page. I can signup for the Newsletter and receive the Generic email where do I change the options for that? Can I manually do it? Please help me!

iecwillow Posted August 24, 2004 Share Posted August 24, 2004 I re-install this contribution into a clean osCommerce and found out this contribution will create an additional box in column_left area, so my problem above must be confilct with existing STS. It's too complicated for me since I only know html, never touched php before install osCommerce. Now what i want to know is if it possible that i can install this contribution and make it create a specified file like newsletter.php and only showing subscriber & unsubscriber function in this file only. Thanks for your help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rajbangar Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 HTML Newsletters I changed the following line in newsletter_subscribers.php $mimemessage->add_text($this->contentb); to $mimemessage->add_html($this->contentb); and I can send HTML newsletters I don't know if it effects anything else, but as far as I can see it works for me.

aspiringarts Posted September 4, 2004 Share Posted September 4, 2004 Raj, a) Is this the newsletters_subscribers.php located in catalog/admin? B) At approx. what line can you find the line you mentioned, $mimemessage->add_text($this->contentb);? I can't seem to locate this line. Thank you, Susan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you, Susan Susan: in admin/includes/modules/newsletters/newsletter_subscribers.php at the bottom find: $mimemessage = new email(array('X-Mailer: replace all that code till the bottom with: $mimemessage = new email(array('X-Mailer: ' . STORE_NAME)); while ($mail = tep_db_fetch_array($mail_query)) { $this->contentb = $this->header . ' ' . $mail['subscribers_firstname'] . "\n\n" . $this->contenta .

TABLE_NEWSLETTERS . " set date_sent = now(), status = '1' where newsletters_id = '" . tep_db_input($newsletter_id) . "'"); } } ?> this module is a pain to install btw did you all notice that people can type any email into unsubscribe area even they are right then they can change other people email, i know its looking far ahead but think about it.

encore Posted September 12, 2004 Share Posted September 12, 2004 Hi There I've started to install this contribution and get the following error messgage when I subscribe to the newsletter at newsletters.php Location= newsletters_subscribe.php Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /hsphere/local/home/encorep/encoreproductions.co.uk/catalog/includes/classes/snoopy1.class.php:2104) in /hsphere/local/home/encorep/encoreproductions.co.uk/catalog/newsletters_subscribe.php on line 73 Can you help resolve this issue?

aspiringarts Posted September 12, 2004 Share Posted September 12, 2004 Druide, thank you very much! I was able to send an HTML newsletter with your changes. One thing -- it added line breaks in weird places. Any way to control this? I wish it were also possible to send the newsletter to a selected subset of the list, i.e. me, to test how it will look before sending it to my recipients. I also wish you could go back and edit a newsletter! Now if I want to make changes, I have to recreate the entire newsletter. :-( Anyone have a fix for this?

saleem145 Posted September 26, 2004 Share Posted September 26, 2004 Just one question -- Once I have this installed how can I test this without having it send out email to add people who are subsribed already. Saleem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aspiringarts Posted October 11, 2004 Share Posted October 11, 2004 I get this same problem. It will need to be worked on, but i am in no way qualified enough to do such a task. But good try. Hope this makes it some where. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I figured out that if you copy the code in, anywhere there is a return, the contrib will add a line break. So you essentially have to make the HTML one long line of code if you want it to remain break-free. I'd edit the file that makes this happen if I could. The other problem is that the sender adds a whole bunch of <br>s between "Dear ______" and the start of the newsletter. One of my recipients told me that because of this, she nearly deleted it without reading. I can't find how to remove these breaks -- any ideas?

I am running OSC2.2 with update 2, Newsletter contrib v0.53 In the language files, I found that by removing one line, the problem is resolved. It is in the file <language>.php Remove the line: define('HEADER_SECTION','Newsletter'); By the way, great contrib you have there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
