OpenCart Community

Hey guys,

I'm looking to see if there's a way to send an automated email to a username once I register it manually in the backend. Work flow would be like this:
1 - I create a new username
2 - I add the user's info (name, email, password)
3 - User gets an email from the system with a template that includes a message, the login URL, the username and the password.

Is there any easy way of doing this? Preferably with a module?

Opencart 2.3.0.2

Thank you,
Radu

If in the back end, you mean from Opencart Admin, this should be no different than creating a username in PHPMyAdmin for instance. The only difference is that in PHPMyAdmin, it won't be synchronized with email notifications unless creating a cron task on your server to track in a new username field that confirms to send an automated email. Otherwise, if from the Opencart Admin, the email should already be sent upon account creation (also depending on the OC version).

Hi straightlight,

Appreciate your reply. Yes, by backend I mean Opencart dashboard. At the moment, if I manually create a new username, no email is being sent to the user that has been added - am I missing something?

Thank you very much,
Radu

am I missing something?

Yes. In OC v3.x releases, you could create a new Event as a module in order to notify the new customer upon account creation via email.

Hi! Thanks for your feedback. Unfortunately, we're on 2.3.0.2 - is there a way to get this done? Maybe even with an extension (free or paid)? Tried looking one up but can't find it really.

Thank you!
