Missing Feature In Easy Store's Mailing System - Admin Notifications
Konzeptplus AG
Hello Joomshaper Community and Support Team,
I hope this message finds you well. I'm reaching out to discuss a potential oversight in the mailing system of the Easy Store product.
As we've been utilizing Easy Store, we've come across a significant issue that seems to be impacting our store management efficiency. It appears that the mailing system lacks a crucial feature: notifications for the Store-Admin. To clarify, when various actions occur (such as new orders, customer queries, etc.), the Store-Admin does not receive any form of notification. This omission is quite surprising and somewhat problematic for effective store management.
Before I conclude that this is indeed a missing feature, I wanted to reach out to the community and support staff. Is there a possibility that we might have overlooked a setting or a configuration option that enables these notifications? If not, I believe adding this feature would greatly enhance the functionality and user-friendliness of Easy Store.
We're keen on making the most out of this product and believe that admin notifications are essential for any e-commerce platform. Your guidance on this matter would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your time and assistance.

Accepted AnswerI have a temporary solution by hardcoding an email address in the file "CheckoutController.php" at line 370 within the "com_easystore" component. Here is a more formal and structured representation of the code snippet you provided:
File: components\com_easystore\src\Controller\CheckoutController.php
$email = new Email("[email protected]", 'order_confirmation'); $email->bind($variables)->send();
This is the whole code try { $email = new Email($customerEmail, 'order_confirmation'); $email->bind($variables)->send(); $email = new Email("[email protected]", 'order_confirmation'); $email->bind($variables)->send(); } catch (\Throwable $th) { return false; }

Accepted AnswerYes this workaround works fine. You can use also variable $email = new Email( $storeEmail, 'order_confirmation');

In the meantime we added a lot of additionel parts to the code. I will DM this to a DEV @joomshaperTeam if you like.

Accepted AnswerYes, this time it's in plugins\system\easystoremail\src\Extension\EasyStoreMail.php Line 55 - add
$email = new Email("[email protected]", $data->type);
$email->bind($data->variables)->send();Eleanora
Accepted AnswerWe would love to have this and MANY other features in v1.0.9
Keep adding these features quickly/without bugs please - as mentioned elsewhere EasyStore was released too early, these should have been included in v1.0.0.
