Email Archive Manager

tonibarcelona:

Many thanks, i will test it now.
I installed tha last version 1.4 of email archive manager. the problem is that when I resend a message , it send a message with only the statements and no contents,
I set mime in admin, so I get an email with html (so borders, gray text area etc, with these words:
$EMAIL_SUBJECT
$EMAIL_MESSAGE_HTML$EMAIL_FOOTER_COPYRIGHT$EMAIL_DISCLAIMER
$EMAIL_SPAM_DISCLAIMER
and nothing more.
I have the same problem when I send a form from frontpage of the shop, but in this last case, I get well the header and footer of the email, and instead of the message content, I see this line:

$EMAIL_MESSAGE_HTML

any help?

What version of Zen Cart ?

i HAVE ZEN 137, I installed also

• email export module.

• user tracking
  super order
  easy populate (althogh I can't use it and I didn't get support on my simple question about sql and utf-8 when I export and see the meaningless characters!!!)
  cross sell
  quick update
• back database
• store manager

in email directory I have:
1- checkout
2- contact us
3- copoun
4- default
5- direct_email
6- gv_queue
7- gv_send
8- low_stock
9- newsletters
10- order_status
11- password_forgotten
12- product_norification
13- tell _ a_friend
14- welcome
15- index.html

when the client purchase, he get html order confirmation email.
also welcome email is okay.
only in resend of an email in admin archive manager and in custom form, they don't send the content of the email, but only the statements like as what they are seen in the tpl.AAAAA.html of the respective email in email folder are displayed.

this is an example of the custom form email:(email is in html )
Sign-up from Bionic Banana!
$EMAIL_MESSAGE_HTML
copy right 2005 (c) .blabla bla of my footer US CAN-SPAM

this is an example of resend message although in admin the content of the message is complete:
$EMAIL_SUBJECT
$EMAIL_MESSAGE_HTML
$EMAIL_FOOTER_COPYRIGHT$EMAIL_DISCLAIMER
$EMAIL_SPAM_DISCLAIMER$EXTRA_INFO

I have replaced in email default the $EMAIL_MESSAGE_HTML with $email_message_contents as I saw in custom form, but still nochange, in received email Oit was just $email_message_contents statement instead of content.
thanks again for your fast reply

Do ALL emails re-sent from the Archive program have this problem, or ONLY the band-signup ones ?

all messages from admin archive have this problem.
but all messages from frontshop are received in order except of band-singup; while the filled fields of the form of band-signup form is seen in admin email archive;

I suggest you work out the obsolete band_signup code problems (perhaps by using the updated code I just posted in that thread) before trying to resolve an archive manager problem, because I think your problem is the outdated code.

I am having an issue. ZC1.3.7. EZ Populate, Database backup, ImageHandler2. Mime email.

I installed the E-mail archive on two sites and get the same results with both.

When I resend an HTML (or text) e-mail I just get the CSS/Template with no data.

Source (from e-mail).
<html> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=$CHARSET" /> <base href="$BASE_HREF" />
<style type="text/css"> body {background-color:#ffffff; color:#000000; font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align:center;} a:link {color:#0066cc;} a:hover {background-color:#eeeecc; color:#0066cc;} a:visited {color:#0066cc;} .holder {background-color:#f9f9f9; border:1px solid #9a9a9a; font-size:9px; text-align:left; width:550px;} .header {font-size:10px; padding:0px; width:550px;} .content {font-size:10px; padding:5px; width:550px;} .footer {border-top:1px solid #9a9a9a; font-size:9px; margin-top:10px; text-align:center; width:550px;} .extra-info {background-color:#cccc99; border:1px solid #9a9a9a; font-size:10px; margin-top:10px; padding:5px; width:550px;} .extra-info-bold {font-weight:bold;} .disclaimer {background-color:#f9f9f9; border:1px solid #cccccc; font-size:10px; margin-top:10px; padding:5px; width:550px;} .disclaimer1 {color:#666666; padding:5px;} .disclaimer1 a:link {color:#666666;} .disclaimer1 a:visited {color:#666666;} .disclaimer2 {color:#666666; padding:5px;} .copyright {border-bottom:0px solid #9a9a9a; padding:5px;} </style>
</head>
<body> <div class="holder">
<!-- Header Section --> <div class="header"> <img src="email/header.jpg" alt="logo" /> </div>

      <!-- Content Section -->           <div class="content">             <div>$EMAIL_SUBJECT</div>             <div>$EMAIL_MESSAGE_HTML</div>           </div>       
  
      <!-- Footer Section -->           <div class="footer">             <div   class="copyright">$EMAIL_FOOTER_COPYRIGHT</div>           </div>       
  </div>       <div class="disclaimer">           <div class="disclaimer1">$EMAIL_DISCLAIMER</div>           <div   class="disclaimer2">$EMAIL_SPAM_DISCLAIMER</div>       </div>       $EXTRA_INFO       </body>       </html>   

So it seems to be failing to "populate" all the variables! I tried going to my other site, same issue (sites are both intended to have the same code base).

When I "Preview HTML" it is also strange, all the CSS is showing! When I "Preview Text" it looks fine.

Any thoughts/suggestions?

I don't believe it saves resent messages.

#1 Sorry to be trouble, I am not sure I understand your response. I have turned on the feature to archive e-mails. When I resend it is failing to populate the data.

ANY ideas? Have you run into this issue at all?

#2 I am considering hiring you for some help. I have a unique pricing structure I may need some help with! I reviewed your website! Is this (email archive) something that maybe I can pay you to diagnose when I am ready for the other issues?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Re: #1 - it doesn't save resent messages. This behavior could be changed,
of course, but right now it doesn't.

Re: #2 - please PM me.

Hi Firstly can I say what a great contribution. However, I have installed it - 1.4 on an almost vanilla install (1.38a)and ran into some problems with both the HTML preview and the resend

For the html preview I was seeing all the css formatting due to an incorrectly closed style tag. A bit of digging also reviled several other html tags not being correctly dealt with in the translation for the way all the > and < are stored in the database (eg _TAG ParametersOptional _ text /TAG ) and the subsequent display

the lines ```php
//$html_content = str_replace('__','><',$html_content);
$html_content = str_replace('_html','<html',$html_content);
$html_content = str_replace('_meta','<meta',$html_content); //DSA
$html_content = str_replace('_style','<style',$html_content); //DSA

and various others in the same section (div, table etc) were missing bits of the _ to < or > conversion. 
To get my emails to display properly I had to add other tags like UL and TH to the list of $html_content replace statements. That should sort out a few of the preview problems that others have reported.

For the resend I realised that it needed to go through a similar process as for the display. It would be easy enough to make that whole conversion a function and add it to the resend. The thought of all the other possible html tags that would need decoding was tooo much, so at that point I decided to make a very small tweak to the includes/functions/functions_email.php file and not sanitise the storage of the html and store it as it was sent out. Then the resend could use a very simple email_template_archive.html file and the resend works a treat for html emails. This also means the resent emails are recorded in the archive - which someone was asking about

Thanks for your input. If you would like to go ahead and update the contribution, that would be great. Just be sure to clearly document any modifications to core files that can't be overridden.

I'm relatively new to Zen Cart and I don't know how to update a contribution.
Also I'm not entirely sure about the idea of storing raw html in the database from a security point of view. I think all the data being sent out via email has already been sanitised and so the only html in there should be what has been added by the email processing in the first place. What do you think?

Go to the download Email Archive Manager page in the downloads area. There's a link at the bottom of the page that lets you "update this contribution." You'll have to create an account.

This contribution is not being actively managed and needs a product manager. You seem like the man for the job! Go for it!

I've installed Email Archive Manager 1.4 on ZC 1.3.7.

When I call : Tools > Email Archive Manager, I'm receiving this message :

Sorry, your security clearance does not allow you to access this resource.

•   Please contact your site administrator if you believe this to be incorrect.*

You've likely installed an Admin Profiles addon, and haven't granted yourself sufficient security clearance to use the email module.
Check with the addon's operational instructions to determine how best to grant yourself clearance.

Thanks for your answer.

Unfortunately, I didn't see anything in addon's operational instructions about grant clearance.

Do you have an other tip ?
Thanks

Admin->Tools->Admin Settings. Click on your username. Click on Permissions. Grant access.
If you're having trouble with that, I recommend that you speak with your store administrator.

Thanks Dr,

I'm the store admin and I have recently installed Admin Profile module. I forgot to checked the email history box. Sorry.

It's done now and all working well. Thanks again.

BTW, It is possible to see the header envelope of the messages ?

I installed the mod and enabled it Email Archive Manager --> True
But I don't see how to access it. I see someone else say its under tools but I see nothing there about it?
