Just realized I forgot to update the version for the version check, so the update was not visible. New Version is not V2.0

I have been using Mailbeez for a long time but upgraded recently to version 2.5 on Zen Cart 1.3.8a.
Most works smoothly but when I send out Birthday greetings etc. my logo appears twice in the email. I wonder why. Can anyone tell me how to avoid two logos when sending out mailbeez emails ?
Thanks in advance.

Hi kim,
with MailBeez V2.5 there is a new setting which allows to override the zencart email template system.
go to MailBeez -> configuration -> email engine
and check "Override Zencart Email Template System" - there you find also some more information
If set to 'true' MailBeez will tell Zencart not to merge the generate content into Zencart Email main templates, but apply the MailBeez main template.
The MailBeez Main Template MUST start (the first 6 characters) with '<html>' otherwise Zencart will still merge the content into its mail template system.
So I guess your MailBeez Main Template ("mailhive/common/template/email_html.tpl") does start with e.g a blank? So you have defined one time your logo there and a second time in "emails/email_template_default.html".
So either make sure that "mailhive/common/template/email_html.tpl" starts with nothing else but "<html>" or change the setting to "false"
does it work?

Mailbeez v2.5 is Released!
:clap:
Here finally some information about the new release of MailBeez with two important enhancements for ZenCart:
Complete blog post:
Read: Mailbeez v2.5 is Released!
All the new features in v2.5:
- Reversible unsubscribe – customers can unblock their email address from the linked unsubscribe page if they wish to resubscribe
- “Kill Process” button designed to stop long sending processes in case the administrator wishes to amend the email campaign (configuration > process control)
- Design improvements and new dashboard icons
- New status indicator that clearly displays production or simulation mode in a prominent position in the Mailbeez dashboard
- Generic framework enhancements
- New default email layout at a new, inbox friendly 600px width
- ZenCart: option to override Zencarts email template system to give full layout control to MailBeez
- ZenCart: When using Zencart’s email templates, the system will now try to use email / email_template_mailbeez.html. If that does not exist, the email_template_default.html is applied
- Mailbeez copyright footer now appears in all free to use module emails – easily removed with the MailBeez Copyright Remover Certificate module
MailBeez V2.5 is also an important bugfix release: In earlier 2.x versions when filters were installed double sendings (only once) could appear in rare occasions
If after updating your MailBeez looks different, do a [shift] + reload to reload the CSS files.

Many thanks for your reply. The only thing I have changed in mailhive/common/template/email_html.tpl is to add my facebook and twitter addresses and then give my own logo the file name default_emailheader.gif. And no, email_html.tpl starts with nothing else but "<html>".
I tried to set "Override Zencart Email Template System" to false and this resultated in just one logo but also added some text. Please see the attached file.
What would be the best to do: try to get rid of this text or try to make "Override Zencart Email Template System" to work ?

It looks awesome!! I am happy to check out the facebook review module again now :)
Also, I looked high and low in the instructions and on your site, and only found it here in this thread to edit the new facebook, twitter, and address portion of the email footer (editing mailhive/common/template/email_html.tpl).
hi kim,
if you are thinking of using more than just the free MailBeez modules it would be better to make "Override Zencart Email Template System" work, since the premium modules will come with a choice of professional email templates. You will also get a "real" preview of the emails.
When set to false, MailBeez takes the "hand-through" main template mailhive/common/templates/email_html_zencart.tpl" - there you can remove the additional text (as it says btw).
I don't have access to zencart 1.3.8, so if you sent me your
/includes/functions/functions_email.php
I can check if the options to override the zencart template system was introduces with 1.3.9
Please share per email on cord (that funny a thing here) mailbeez (tiny point) com

Just bought the new Mailbeez Essentials. Seems like great stuff :).
However I cannot get the winback advanced module to work properly.
The Review Reminder seems to work great, it lists the submodules and I can run these as I wish - I suppose I can automate them as well, haven't gone that far yet though.
However with the winback advanced module I get some wierd error once I click the submodule. Please see attached screenshot. The right sidebar dissapears and I cannot do anything from here, some css styling seems to vanish as well.
I've tried to reinstall it - same problem.
Any ideas? Thanks!
Regards Peter
hi peter,
thanks a lot for purchasing the MailBeez Essentials!
After you have set up everything and tested it in simulation mode you will be able to run everything automatically with the include modules "run mailbeez automatically" (so it does what it says it does ;-) )
I just check the install instructions - missing there is that you need to copy the config_coupon_engine (file & subfolder) as well. Have you done that?
Please also check your /cache dir for the latest MyDebug log - what does it say?
btw you have 24months free upgrades using your avangate download link - so you can always download the latest versions.
