Change Email Subject of Status Update Messages To Show Assigned Status

I'm opening this thread in response to this closed thread

I'm looking to change the email subject of status update messages to show assigned status
E.X
Order Update #### Shipped

I tried the method in the reference thread but was not able to get it working, below is the 2 lines in my orders.php file,

zen_mail($check_status->fields['customers_name'], $check_status->fields['customers_email_address'], EMAIL_TEXT_SUBJECT . ' [CP' . $oID.']', $message, STORE_NAME, EMAIL_FROM, $html_msg, 'order_status',$url);
            $customer_notified = '1';

How would I update this to accomplish the above.

TIA

```php
zen_mail($check_status->fields['customers_name'], $check_status->fields['customers_email_address'], EMAIL_TEXT_SUBJECT . ' [CP' . $oID.'] ' . $orders_status_array[$status], $message, STORE_NAME, EMAIL_FROM, $html_msg, 'order_status',$url);
            $customer_notified = '1';

That should modify your existing content to include the words associated with the status to which it was changed...

Thanks so much working!

How would i do the same for the admin copy

//send extra emails
            if (SEND_EXTRA_ORDERS_STATUS_ADMIN_EMAILS_TO_STATUS == '1' and SEND_EXTRA_ORDERS_STATUS_ADMIN_EMAILS_TO != '') {
              zen_mail('', SEND_EXTRA_ORDERS_STATUS_ADMIN_EMAILS_TO, SEND_EXTRA_ORDERS_STATUS_ADMIN_EMAILS_TO_SUBJECT . ' ' . EMAIL_TEXT_SUBJECT . ' #' . $oID, $message, STORE_NAME, EMAIL_FROM, $html_msg, 'order_status_extra');
            }
          } elseif (isset($_POST['notify']) && ($_POST['notify'] == '-1')) {
            // hide comment

} elseif (isset($_POST['notify']) && ($_POST['notify'] == '-1')) {
// hide comment

By similar modification:

//send extra emails
if (SEND_EXTRA_ORDERS_STATUS_ADMIN_EMAILS_TO_STATUS == '1' and SEND_EXTRA_ORDERS_STATUS_ADMIN_EMAILS_TO != '') {
zen_mail('', SEND_EXTRA_ORDERS_STATUS_ADMIN_EMAILS_TO, SEND_EXTRA_ORDERS_STATUS_ADMIN_EMAILS_TO_SUBJECT . ' ' . EMAIL_TEXT_SUBJECT . ' #' . $oID . ' ' . $orders_status_array[$status], $message, STORE_NAME, EMAIL_FROM, $html_msg, 'order_status_extra');

Did not work, is the part I quoted the right part for the admin status notification emails?

Did not work, is the part I quoted the right part for the admin status notification emails?

Well, atquick glance it appeared to be the correct code from admin/orders.php for the email sent when changing the status and "appeared" that the variable was still in focus and unchanged. On that last part I couuld have been wrong.I don't have the code quickly available atthe moment to answer that part.

Based on this thread it could be possible that there is something else at play... Looking at stock ZC code for zc 1.5.4, the above change should have worked...

Perhaps posting more of the code before and after the line in question? Complete enough to determine if that variable is still appropriately set or if another needs to be created to get the desired result(s).

Thanks so much for your help
This part is not so important, but I noticed that when sending batch status update it does not follow the code in the orders.php but from the super_batch_status.php below I pasted the full contents of super_batch_status.php could you point me in the right direction where I can add the status name to the subject line thanks!

As DrByte had previously suggested, this question would be best served (for all) to be in the Super Orders thread. That said, the file provided above does not send an email (directly), but instead processes the information on the page and then calls a super orders function (having looked at the super orders files).

In order to accommodate the change in status being in the subject line of the super orders batch status update, goto: admin/includes/functions/extra_functions/super_orders_functions.php

find code similar to below within the function email_latest_status:

 
// End Zen Cart v1.5 Modified Core Code

 
  // send extra emails

 
  if (SEND_EXTRA_ORDERS_STATUS_ADMIN_EMAILS_TO_STATUS == '1' and SEND_EXTRA_ORDERS_STATUS_ADMIN_EMAILS_TO != '') {

 
    zen_mail('', SEND_EXTRA_ORDERS_STATUS_ADMIN_EMAILS_TO, SEND_EXTRA_ORDERS_STATUS_ADMIN_EMAILS_TO_SUBJECT . ' ' . EMAIL_TEXT_SUBJECT . ' #' . $oID, $message, STORE_NAME, EMAIL_FROM, $html_msg, 'order_status_extra');

 
  }

and change to:

 
// End Zen Cart v1.5 Modified Core Code

 
  // send extra emails

 
  if (SEND_EXTRA_ORDERS_STATUS_ADMIN_EMAILS_TO_STATUS == '1' and SEND_EXTRA_ORDERS_STATUS_ADMIN_EMAILS_TO != '') {

 
    zen_mail('', SEND_EXTRA_ORDERS_STATUS_ADMIN_EMAILS_TO, SEND_EXTRA_ORDERS_STATUS_ADMIN_EMAILS_TO_SUBJECT . ' ' . EMAIL_TEXT_SUBJECT . ' #' . $oID . ' ' . 
$orders_status_array[$status], $message, STORE_NAME, EMAIL_FROM, $html_msg, 'order_status_extra');

 
  }

That's for the admin copy, it should be this line

zen_mail($customer_info->fields['customers_name'], $customer_info->fields['customers_email_address'], EMAIL_TEXT_SUBJECT . ' #' . $oID, $message, STORE_NAME, EMAIL_FROM, $html_msg, 'order_status');

Sorry, thought there was still a need to address the admin email and that it was the batch status update that was "missing"... But yes, for the customer, that would be the line to which to append the same text...

Take note that the email title from batch status is different than what you had for the admin/orders.php version. That version placed the order # between square brackets, the above does not.

Thanks so much,

How would i add [] around $orders_status_array[$status] so that it shows [Update] in the email subject
