[SOLVED]send mail to user after admin approval of listing

[sravani]

Hi,

I have enabled admin approval for all the listings in my website.
When a listing is posted by user, admin gets a validation mail and after validation is done,
I would like to send "your listing is approved by admin" mail to user.

Can someone help me to add this.
Tried to check if there are any earlier solutions for this. But couldn't get any.

Hi teseo,

Thanks for the reply.

I did add the piece of code at the end of functions.php of my theme
(using mcfly theme) and edited email_new_item_non_register_user template.

But not receiving mail after admin validation.

Just to be sure, I have done the following work around
http://forums.osclass.org/general-help/item-validation-via-email-by-administrator-(not-user)/msg89675/#msg89675

Only logged in users can post listings
User gets wait for admin approval mail
admin gets validation mail when a new listing is added

attached functions.php

Installed more edit plugin.

Now user gets 'approved' mail after admins approval.
But there are some issues.
1. Ad is BLOCKED before admins approval. Can't we keep it in INACTIVE state? (like when new listing is published on normal osclass without more edit plugin)

For that you need to modify two identical lines on moreedit/index.php:

Code: [Select]

Item::newInstance()->update(array('b_enabled' => 0), array('pk_i_id' => $item_id));
to:

Code: [Select]

Item::newInstance()->update(array('b_active => 0), array('pk_i_id' => $item_id));

Hi Teseo,

I did try changing b_enabled to b_active.
In that case, user is not getting email saying "admin approved"

[teseo]

This is like a snowball: you change b_enabled by b_active and you need to change everything related as well.

In this function:

Code: [Select]

function cust_approved_item_mail($id) {

    $eItem = Item::newInstance()->findByPrimaryKey($id);
    View::newInstance()->_exportVariableToView('item', $eItem);

    fn_email_new_item_non_register_user($eItem);
}

osc_add_hook('enable_item', 'cust_approved_item_mail');

You need to change the hook:

Code: [Select]

osc_add_hook('activate_item', 'cust_approved_item_mail');

Thanks for taking time to explain.
It is working as expected.
