Title: VM 2.0.20b and 2.0.24 order & confirmation emails not sending to anyone.
Post by: DG on October 11, 2013, 10:12:04 AM
Using Joomla 2.5.14 - VM 2.0.24
 
VM 2.0.20b stopped sending order and confirmation emails to both the vendor and the customer a little while ago - though the orders are being stored in VM's backend.  The update to VM 2.0.24 hasn't resolved the problem. 
Other checkout config settings in VM 2.0.24 are:

Does anyone have an answer to this problem at all?

Quote from: DG on October 11, 2013, 10:12:04 AMOther checkout config settings in VM 2.0.24 are:
  • Default Order Status to create an invoice: Pending and Confirmed (the invoice is created)
  • Default Order Status to send email to shopper: Confirmed, Cancelled, Refunded, Shipped (tool tip states 'you can choose multiple order  statuse')
  • Default Order Status to send email to vendor: Pending, Confirmed, Cancelled, Refunded. (tool tip states 'you can choose multiple order  statuse')

I've read on another thread to change Default Order Status to send email to shopper and vendor to 'pending'.
In doing so, the shopper receives their email, though the vendor still does not.

Does anyone have an answer to this problem at all?

Does vendor have proper email?

Thanks :)  Yes, it does.  It has all been functioning well until recently (the last month or so).  This is a client's site.  I thought the update might resolve the problem.  I've read a couple of things that refer to the 'invoice' setting in VM config and that there may be a problem with the coding, but that may have been fixed with this last update. I've just changed the invoice setting to 'pending' and 'confirmed' and am waiting to hear back from the owner.  Fingers crossed.  I'll come back once I've heard anything.

Hi
I have just upgraded 2 clients and now both are unable to send emails via virtuemart!! Any ideas as to why, my settings are all there, but nothing is going out at all :(

If someone could have a look at this as its a pretty important part of the customer process

thanks in advance

You have to check many things:

Vendor can receive system mail address ( you can do also by user detail in JOomla user management )

In checkout settings take care that the order status is among the status to produce an email

Vendor has a correct email set

Hi
I experience the same problem.
Joomla! 2.5.14
Virtuemart 2.0.24

The problem occured with 2.0.22 as well then I tried to upgrade and hoped the problem got solved but it didn't.
I can't downgrade to 2.0.20. Is there another solution? Does anyone know why this is happening?

Regards,
Jonas

YES!!!!!!!!!!

It just worked with the hint of DG:
Default Order Status to send email to shopper:
Default Order Status to send email to vendor:

Both of them the "pending" was missing.

I added it and it works!
But dear VM Team why did it happen that on an update this can be changed and is not communicated somewhere?
it took me at least 3 hours to figure out.

Ahhh Yes that's correct mail sending.

But it's awful now - we must call each client and apologize , that their orders are late .....

It's really bad that it was not documented on update.....

Consider it as bug, the configuration should stay the same as before.

Yes! That worked for me too! It took me 3 days to figure it out! This post was hard to find with Google. Checked e-mail logs with my webhoster and everything.

For others with the same problem, to be clear, go to Components > VirtueMart > Configuration > Configuration > Checkout...
Add "Pending" to "Default Order Status to send email to shopper" and "Default Order Status to send email to vendor".

Awefull bug. Thank you Zeisch and DG!

Hi good to hear that is worked for you.

But I tried as suggested an it does not work for me. I recieve mail from Joomla on User registration, but unfortunately nothin from VM2 (order status, etc)

Also, I could not find a way to change the vendor email adress. It the order status alway send to the site administrator just like the registration mails????

thanks for help

Bringing this topic back...
Joomla 3.5.1
VM 3.0.14

Admin & customer do not receive emails per this topic.  My major concern is that I do not have the choice to add "Pending" to the Default Order Status to send email to shopper
I have added "Pending" to the Default Order Status to send email to vendor, but have not tested as I was hoping to test both email messages, vendor & shopper, at the same time...

So, I guess my real question before testing is how to add "Pending" to the choices for Default Order Status to send email to shopper...?

Thank you for any direction!

After some more digging, I found this temporary solution until VM updates for the changes in J 3.5.1

http://forum.virtuemart.net/index.php?topic=133760.0 (http://forum.virtuemart.net/index.php?topic=133760.0)

Still does not account for the missing option for "Pending" in the "Default Order Status to send email to shopper" choices...
