[SOLVED] How to change standard email text è stato creato da stuartbarry

Sorry if this is an obvious question but a search on the forum did not show up anything and I cannot see anything in the videos. How do I change the standard email text in the emails that are sent in response to new event bookings?

Hello,

If you mean the email notification send to a user who has registered, you have possibility to use custom emails in Global Options of component > Registration tab.

Hope this helps ?

Thanks. That partially solves the problem. But this is only in the registration tab. I have an event setup where a client books one event with me and they handle their own registrations separately. When they book their event with me they receive the standard system email saying that they have booked. I cannot see where I can change this email or the standard follow up email. I did turn registrations back on and when one person was registered the organiser received my custom email. But I do not want to have registration turned on. I just want to change the standard system emails.

Hello,

I'm sorry Stuart, but i don't understand...

- You want to change the registration notification email to user
- You don't want to use iCagenda Registration system

The 2 ones are not possible in the same time, as the registration notification emails work only with iCagenda core registration form. (as for Joomla registration system...)

So, maybe i've missed the logic of what you want to do ? :huh:

Cyril

My events are very simple. I want a pre-registered person to log in and fill in a new event form from the front end. After that there is no further registration as I have their event captured with all their details. The only other thing that needs to happen is to let them modify the booking from the front end if something changes. I am struggling to get this working.

I have the front end new event part working, but the email that goes to them is the system email that I need to change.

I had to turn on the event registration just to get the custom email confirmation working, but don't really want to use that part.

Is it possible to do this?

Thanks
Stuart

Well...

First, there's no (not yet) a frontend management.

If i have issue to understand what you want to do, is now, i don't know if you mean the "Registration" form or the "Submit an Event" form.

I have the front end new event part working, but the email that goes to them is the system email that I need to change.

Which one email you mean there ? Registration or submit an event form ?
As, a custom email exists for registration, but not (yet) for event.
In all cases, for core emails with no custom options, you can always use the joomla string override system, to customize the content of emails : icagenda.joomlic.com/docs/documentation/...joomla-administrator

But.. i'm not sure to understand exaclty which email notification you mean, as you sometimes speak about registration, and sometimes about "new event" (which i suppose to be "Submit an Event" form in frontend...)
So, a bit lost... :silly:

I am just talking about the submit an event front end. That's the only part that I am using. When a user submits an event I have all the information that I need. When they submit the event they get a system generated email, which I need to change. When I accept the event they get another system generated email, which I also need to change.

I don't want to enable the registration part as the client will never register attendees. They will only ever create a new event from the front end by submitting an event. Once it is on the system they should be able to amend it, but at the moment there does not seem to be an option to do this.

It would be great if I can do these things as I could then start to go live. If it is not possible I may have to just have a very simple on-line SQL database that clients can update.

Thanks for your help
Stuart

As you talked about "registration" and "booking", i was mistaken...

About Event submission form notification email, this one will need to create translation overrides.

Currently, the body of user email after an event submission in frontend is this one (in PHP code) :

$user_submit_body = JText::sprintf( 'COM_ICAGENDA_USER_EMAIL_HELLO', $username ) . ',<br /><br />';
		$user_submit_body.= JText::sprintf( 'COM_ICAGENDA_EVENT_SUBMISSION_THANK_YOU', $sitename ) . '<br />';
		$user_submit_body.= JText::_( 'COM_ICAGENDA_EVENT_SUBMISSION_EDITOR_REVIEW' ) . '<br />';
		$user_submit_body.= JText::_( 'COM_ICAGENDA_EVENT_SUBMISSION_CONFIRMATION_EMAIL' ) . '<br /><br />';
		$user_submit_body.= JText::sprintf( 'COM_ICAGENDA_USER_EMAIL_EVENT_TITLE_AND_REF_NO', $event_title, $event_ref ) . '<br /><br />';
		$user_submit_body.= JText::_( 'COM_ICAGENDA_USER_EMAIL_BEST_REGARDS' ) . '<br />';

So, translation strings used are those ones:
1.

COM_ICAGENDA_USER_EMAIL_HELLO="Hello %s"

Here %s is the Username

2.

COM_ICAGENDA_EVENT_SUBMISSION_THANK_YOU="Thank you for submitting your event to %s!"

Here %s is the Site name set in Joomla configuration

3.

COM_ICAGENDA_EVENT_SUBMISSION_EDITOR_REVIEW="An editor will review your submission before validating it."

COM_ICAGENDA_EVENT_SUBMISSION_CONFIRMATION_EMAIL="You will receive a confirmation email when your event will be approved, with a direct link to view it."

COM_ICAGENDA_USER_EMAIL_EVENT_TITLE_AND_REF_NO="Your event '%s' has been submitted with reference number '%s'."

Here first %s is the event title and second %s is the event reference

Hope this helps ?

Best Regards,
Cyril

Thanks for the excellent reply. That all works well.

One very small point, that I can live with. When the new event is approved using the email that is sent to the editor then an email is generated by the system and sent to the person making the front end booking. If the approval is done directly on the back end then that email is not generated.

Apart from that this solves my problem and I can start to use the system.

You're welcome!

Do you mean you want this notification email (confirmation the event is approved) to never be send, or to always be send (both if admin and frontend sides) ?

Cyril
