Email doesnt send when I pass data in?
29 November 2009 at 10:28pm
Hello,
I am trying to send send an email in response to a form submission. The email will send until I populate the email template with the data. Does anybody know why this might be?
Here is my code...
function EnquireAction($data, $form) {
$submission = new Enquiry();
$form->saveInto($submission);
$submission->write();
Debug::show($adminbody);
$Full_name = $data['First_name']." ".$data['Surname'];
$Wine = $data['Wine_name'].", ".$data['Vintage'].", ".$data['Region'].", ".$data['Colour'];
$email = new Email(**FROM EMAIL**, **SEND TO**, "New Wine List Enquiry");
$email->setTemplate('AdminWineEnquiry');$email->populateTemplate(
array(
'FullName' => $Full_name,
'Email' => $data['Email'],
'Telephone' => $data['Telephone'],
'Wine' => $Wine,
'Price' => $data['price'],
'Desc' => $data['Desc']
)
);if($email->send()){
Debug::show($email);
}else{
Debug::show("Not sent");
}
//Director::redirectBack(Director::baseURL(). "/thank-you");
}The template is...
Hi Ben,<br/><br/>
<p>You have had a new enquiry from the wine list.</p>
<p>From: $FullName</p>
<p>Email: $Email</p>
<p>Telephone: $Telephone</p>
<p>Wine: $Wine</p>";
<p>Price on website: £$Price</p>
<p>User comments: $Desc</p>
<p>Regards<br/>
The website</p> -

I had this exact problem a few weeks ago, but haven't had time to track down a specific bug, nor could I find on in Trac.
My fix for this was to use the Email classes setTo() and setFrom() methods to set the headers AFTER the data is passed. http://api.silverstripe.org/default/Email.html#setFrom.
I remember pumping the object on screen and seeing that the recipient field was blank if I didn't do that, even though it was present prior to the populateTemplate call.

Thanks for the help Double-a-ron. I had a go at that. Didnt seem to work
I tried to sendPlain instead and this works. Will do me for the moment.

Hi mate,
I just dug out the exact code I was having the same issue with.
// send an email to the customer
$to = $this->OrderEmail;
$subject = 'Order confirmation';
$e = new $emailClass($to, $adminEmail, $subject);
$e->populateTemplate($this);
$e->populateTemplate(
array(
"Order" => $this,
"Member" => $member
)
);// At this point, for some reason the subject and recipient go AWOL from the Object - Reset them!
if(isset($subject)) $e->setSubject($subject);
if(isset($to))$e->setTo($to);$e->send();
The code is taken from the Ecommerce module. I'm willing to bet that if you output your email object on screen when you do this send, you find that the "to" data is blank.

I wrote:
$templateData = array(
'WelcomeMessage' => $welcomeMsg, // Accessible in template via $WelcomeMessage
'VarFirstName' => $SignupFirst,
'VarEmail' => $SignupEmailAddress,
'VarPassword' => $SignupPwd,
'VarSurname' => $SignupSurn
);
$email->populateTemplate($templateData);
and my SignUp.ss template is:<h3>Hi, $VarFirstName $VarSurname.</h3>
<br/><p>$WelcomeMessage</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Email:</strong>$VarEmail</li>
<li><strong>Password:</strong>$VarPassword</li>but my template vars on signup.ss are not populated. Only $WelcomeMessage. Why?
