Confirmation Mail after Item Purchase
« on: April 14, 2007, 12:17:59 am »
Hello!

I would like to modify my Shop 3.0 code so that it sends me an e-mail whenever someone purchases an item from my store.

If anyone knows how to modify the code for this purpose please kindly let me know.

Best wishes,

Christian

So, when someone buys an item, you want an email?

In Sources/shop/Shop-Buy.php, find:
Code: (php) [Select]
// Tell them that they purchased it
$context['shop_buy_message'] = sprintf($txt['shop_bought_item'], $row['name']);

Add above:
Code: (php) [Select]
// Modified as per http://www.daniel15.com/forum/index.php/topic,784.0.html - Send an email on purchase of an item
// We need the sendmail() function
global $sourcedir;
require_once($sourcedir . '/Subs-Post.php');
// Who are we sending to?
$to = 'i_like_spam@daniel15.com';
// Subject of the email
$subject = '"' . $row['name'] . '" item bought';
// Actual message
$message = 'The user ' . $context['user']['name'] . ' has purchased a ' . $row['name'] . 'item.';
// Send it!
sendmail($to, $subject, $message);

Change the email address, subject and message to suit your needs. Even if you don't know PHP, you should be able to see what the code is doing :) ($row['name'] is the name of the item).

Hello,
this works great!!!
Is it also possible to send this email to 2 addresses? And what do I need to change for that?

Thanks,
Vincent.

This might work:
Change
Code: [Select]
$to = 'i_like_spam@daniel15.com';
to
Code: [Select]
$to = 'i_like_spam@daniel15.com, some_other_spam_address@daniel15.com';
(ie. separate the addresses by a comma). Please tell me if this works, I haven't tested it.

Sorry for the delay, didn't get an e-mail of the replay  :(

the above is nog working correct, the e-mail is send to the first e-mail address only.
