newsletter template path

2 August 2010 at 5:33pm
I am running newsletter v0.4.0-rc1 on 2.4 and having some trouble with the template. I created the template Newsletter.ss in the folder email. But no matter where I put the folder (themes/xxx/templates/, newsletter/templates/, or even mysite/) I don't get anything in the selectbox in the admin. I tried to set the paths in the configs both with $template_paths and $template_path.
There is a function in the NewsletterAdmin.php which even should get the templates without setting the path in the config. Why then do I only have "None" in the template selectbox?
Has anyone managed to run the newsletter module on 2.4 with a custom template?
Thanks a lot.

Try /mysite/templates/Email
Also, don't forget to ?flush=1 just to be sure -

Doesn't help. I still don't get any template selection.

Well i just did a little test adding a file 'test.ss' to said folder.
When i logged into the CMS, i could pick 'test' from the template dropdown.
So it IS working here... -

This is probably a version issue. I'm running on the latest version of ss (2.4.1) and newsletter module and I'm getting the same issue. Dumping out some of the variables I noticed that the theme is not set when AJAX requests are sent and there's a bug report for it here.
Mad_Clog can you tell us which version you're running on?

A workaround for the Newsletter module is to move your newsletter templates to your project folder instead. It checks for templates in project-folder/templates/email and project-folder/templates/Email as well after checking the theme folder (which isn't working right now).

I'm running SS 2.4.1 and for the newsletter module I'm using the latest trunk build (if i remember correctly)

It's running now on my website:
The template must be locaded in "mysite/templates/email", in my case it's named "Newsletter.ss".
I went to the database with PhpMyAdmin and in the table "NewsletterType" I put "Newsletter" into the field "Template".
Not very nice but I needed to get it running now. With the next installation I will try again and hopefully it will run straight away...
Thanks.
