Hi,
I had a server crash a little while ago and reinstalled Zen cart (totally my mistake). I restored my SQL and copied all of my backed up files over the new instalation. I was very relieved when everything worked fine again.
I have found a little hitch and I can't figure out what I can do to fix it.
The text in the customers emails is gone and replaced with $EMAIL_MESSAGE_HTML.
I am running Zen 1.38.
Any ideas? Any help would be much appreciated.

Re: Help! My emails to customers aren't working properly
Looks to be a corruption of at least that file - either in the backup or in transferring/FTP the file set
Replace with a new copyZen-Venom Get Bitten

Re: Help! My emails to customers aren't working properly
Thanks so much for your quick reply.
Which file is responsible for this? I looked in the developer tools but it came up empty?
I think the template file is in tact but the variables are not being posted to the file?
Sorry to be a pest...

Re: Help! My emails to customers aren't working properly
What addons have you installed?
What changes have you made to the files in the /email/ folder?
Which specific emails is this happening for?.

Sorry for not being more specific.

I modified the email template but it was working before I had to reinstall (thanks to sycronising with golive and forgetting to stop it deleting a bunch of files).
I can only find a problem with the html reciept emails that the customer gets after making a purchase. The txt ones are fine.

Re: Help! My emails to customers aren't working properly
I recommend that you compare all the files in the /email/ folder against the original unedited versions, and rectify any differences.

Re: Help! My emails to customers aren't working properly
Wow, thanks, it worked.
All the files appeared to be in tact. but I uploaded the whole /email/ folder and then my modified email_template_checkout.htm file and voila!
It was hard to spot because all of the files appeared to be the same, but it must have been in there somewhere :)
Thanks again.

Yes these can be hard to spot at times and when there are many. The exact reason it was recommended that you use a diff tool like winmergeIt was hard to spot because all of the files appeared to be the same, but it must have been in there somewhereZen-Venom Get Bitten
