Newletter template issue
21 October 2009 at 11:01pm
Hello
I'm running silvertstripe 2.3.3 with newsletter trunk "newsletter-trunk-r88195.tar.gz"
I did manage to install it, have some contact list etc.My main problem like lots of people here is tog get the template system to work.
I try follow the http://doc.silverstripe.com/doku.php?id=modules:newsletter instruction but I don't get :
1) where _config.php is located (is it the main one or the one in the newsletter folder)
2) when I try to add those two line :
Email::setAdminEmail(’<default from address>’);
Object::useCustomClass(â€Memberâ€, “<custom member classname>â€);and flush I get a blank page. (in both _phpconfig files)
I'm very stuck by all this, and it seems more complicated than using templates in Silvestripe itself ;)
Can anyone show me a way of proceding or direct me to a post answering thos question (eventough I search the forums but did not find anything that halped me a lot)
Thanks in advances

1) Doesn't matter, but it's better to put your custom code in mysite/_config.php
2) That's because you copy/pasted it from the docs and the quotes are wrong there. Should be:Email::setAdminEmail('<default from address>');
Object::useCustomClass('Member', '<custom member classname>'); -

Hi thanks for the answer .
But when I try to add thos two line and flush I get a blank page as a result of flush not the usual list of database field and all
Maybe it has to be inserted somewhere specific inside the _phpconfig file.
Let me know.
Thanks Again

There's no such thing as a _phpconfig file. It's _config.php.
When you're getting a blank page, you most likely have an error in your code somewhere. Check the PHP error log to find out where. -

OUps sorry I meant _config.php
Anyway I was wonedring where to put those two lines in the _config.php file
I did it like this but it is not working (blank page after flush)
Any advice Thanks
<?php
global $project;
$project = 'mysite';global $databaseConfig;
$databaseConfig = array(
"type" => "MySQLDatabase",
"server" => "localhost",
"username" => "xxxxxx",
"password" => "xxxxxx",
"database" => "xxxxxx",
);// Sites running on the following servers will be
// run in development mode. See
// http://doc.silverstripe.com/doku.php?id=devmode
// for a description of what dev mode does.
Director::set_dev_servers(array(
'localhost',
'127.0.0.1',
));// This line set's the current theme. More themes can be
// downloaded from http://www.silverstripe.com/themes/
SSViewer::set_theme('blackcandy');// set email template folder to themes/mytemplate/templates/email
NewsletterAdmin::$template_path = "themes/mytemplate/templates/email";// Newsletter set up
Email::setAdminEmail('<default from address>');
Object::useCustomClass('Member', '<custom member classname>');

Like I said: If you get a blank page, there's probably an error in your PHP code somewhere. Check the PHP error log.

Thanks I did check and corrected the php mistake ( some quote problem)
Now I have another problem I followed the instruction for the template settings and I ca not get it to appear in the dropdown menu .
My _config.php is in mys site and is set like this :
<?php
global $project;
$project = 'mysite';global $databaseConfig;
$databaseConfig = array(
"type" => "MySQLDatabase",
"server" => "localhost",
"username" => "xxxxx",
"password" => "xxxxx",
"database" => "xxxxx",
);// Sites running on the following servers will be
// run in development mode. See
// http://doc.silverstripe.com/doku.php?id=devmode
// for a description of what dev mode does.
Director::set_dev_servers(array(
'localhost',
'127.0.0.1',
));// This line set's the current theme. More themes can be
// downloaded from http://www.silverstripe.com/themes/
SSViewer::set_theme('blackcandy');// set email template folder to themes/mytemplate/templates/email
NewsletterAdmin::$template_path = "themes/mytemplate/templates/Email";// Newsletter set up
Email::setAdminEmail('<default from address>');
Object::useCustomClass('Member', '<custom member classname>');
?>my pemplate is in themes/mytemplate/templates/Email and is like this
CAn you tell me if all this is corect, maybe I missed something
Thanks for your time and help
