Order Confirmation Emails Question

[DrByte]

BTW, in your reply you said to look for the notifier: NOTIFY_ORDER_INVOICE_CONTENT_FOR_ADDITIONAL_EMAILS. No such notifier is in the copy of order.php that I have. No biggie, just FYI.

That was added in v1.5.0. You're using a much older version which doesn't have that option.

Hey lat9:

I tried that. No go. In fact, I got frustrated and deleted all 6 lines. Same result. Don't understand it!

I think you might be getting "bit" by the zen_mail function itself. Look in /includes/functions/functions_email.php; my copy has the following version information:

/**
 * functions_email.php
 * Processes all outbound email from Zen Cart
 * Hooks into phpMailer class for actual email encoding and sending
 *
 * @package functions
 * @copyright Copyright 2003-2011 Zen Cart Development Team
 * @copyright Portions Copyright 2003 osCommerce
 * @license http://www.zen-cart.com/license/2_0.txt GNU Public License V2.0
 * @version $Id: functions_email.php 19325 2011-08-02 22:09:43Z drbyte $
 * 2007-09-30 added encryption support for Gmail Chuck Redman
 */

Starting at line 114, there's this code fragment that might be the source of your problem:

      if ($module != 'xml_record') {
        if (!strstr($email_text, sprintf(EMAIL_DISCLAIMER, STORE_OWNER_EMAIL_ADDRESS)) && $to_email_address != STORE_OWNER_EMAIL_ADDRESS && !defined('EMAIL_DISCLAIMER_NEW_CUSTOMER')) $email_text .= "\n" . sprintf(EMAIL_DISCLAIMER, STORE_OWNER_EMAIL_ADDRESS);
        if (defined('EMAIL_SPAM_DISCLAIMER') && EMAIL_SPAM_DISCLAIMER != '' && !strstr($email_text, EMAIL_SPAM_DISCLAIMER) && $to_email_address != STORE_OWNER_EMAIL_ADDRESS) $email_text .= "\n\n" . EMAIL_SPAM_DISCLAIMER;
      }

Hey lat9.

Yea, I figured it was being done somewhere outside the order routine. You're probably right that it's in the functions_email routine. Looking at the code, however, it looks like the disclaimers shouldn't be included if the email is going to the store owner. I'll look at the code further this afternoon and see if it's being added somewhere else in the routine.

Thanks for sticking with this. You are truly Totally Zenned.

Regards.

What exactly did you change in the code?

It sounds like you want to send a completely different email to a completely different address. What's the business purpose for this other email you're sending? Why are you wanting to make these changes?
It's often helpful to know the full back-story in order to give you the specific answer you need.
