I'm using this code:

$email = Yii::createComponent('application.extensions.mailer.EMailer');

					$email->From = Yii::app()->params['register']['fromEmail'];

					$email->FromName = Yii::app()->params['register']['fromName'];

					$email->AddReplyTo(Yii::app()->params['register']['fromEmail']);

					$email->AddAddress($user->email);

					$email->CharSet = 'UTF-8';

					$email->Subject = Yii::app()->params['register']['subject'];

					$email->MsgHTML($this->renderPartial('email/register', array('user' => $user), true));

					$email->Send();

Here is a view I use:

Hi, <?php echo $user->fullName;?><br />

<br />

You were successfully registered on the EveryStyle.co.uk with:<br />

Username <?php echo $user->username;?><br />

Password <?php echo $user->password_repeat;?><br />

<br />

Please follow the link below to confirm you email:<br />

<a href="http://site.com/activate.html?id=<?php echo $user->userID;?>&activationKey=<?php echo $user->activationKey; ?>">http://site.com/activate.html?id=<?php echo $user->userID;?>&activationKey=<?php echo $user->activationKey; ?></a><br />

Message is OK in Microsoft Outlook or Google mail, but my client is using OSx and there is a mailer (called "mail" or something like this), that shows the following:

--b1_4a941e1cb54df417c1a9bb7af6fe27d6

As I can see, PHPMailer simply added text version also and this may be causing a problem. However, when I send him messages using either Google or Microsoft Outlook everything is OK, he receives attachments without any problems etc.

Any ideas why is this happening?

[MetaYii]

New release: 2.0 using PHPMailer 5.0 and including the getView method.

Could you please post a working example of how to get the body (message) of email to contain that of a view.

lets say i have a views/email/verifyEmail.php

thanks

[ooaat]

BUMP!!!

Anyone know what actions tells mailer to render view?

[ooaat]

This is what I have so far inside my controller;

$email = Yii::createComponent('application.extensions.mailer.EMailer');

$email->IsSMTP();

$email->IsHTML();

//$email->SMTPDebug = true;

$email->Host = 'smtp.myhost.com';

$email->From = 'test@myhost.com';

$email->AddReplyTo('do-not-reply@myhost.com');

$email->AddAddress('user@myhost.com');

$email->CharSet = 'UTF-8';

$email->Subject = 'Test';

// body of email to contain protected/views/email/verify

$email->MsgHTML($this->render('verify', array(

                                    'account'=> $account,

                                    'contact_info'=> $contact_info,)

                                , true

                               ));

$email->Send();

I have a file called verify located at

protected/views/email/verify.php

However I keep getting error;

CException

AccountController cannot find the requested view "verify".

Have you tried:

$email->MsgHTML($this->render('email/verify', array...

[ooaat]

yes tekki...

same error

[will]

you should try sth like:

$mailer->GetView('verify', array(

                                    'account'=> $account,

                                    'contact_info'=> $contact_info,)

                                , 'main'

                              			);

[ooaat]

tried that too will;

$email->GetView('verify', array(

                                    'account'=> $account,

                                    'contact_info'=> $contact_info,)

                                , true

                                );

ended up with this error;

CException

there was a typo in my last post( I have corrected that).
The last param of GetView() method should be the layout you want to use, should be a string, e.g. 'main'

[ooaat]

Thanks so much will.

I finally got it too work by;

$email->GetView('verify', array(

                                    'account'=> $account,

                                    'contact_info'=> $contact_info,)

                                , 'verify'

                                );

I had to copy the view folder into the layout folder for it to work.

I don't need to use a layout, how do I avoid it from doing this? I just what it to render the view.

This is why in my original code above I had false, thinking it would stop the code from running this part.

[ooaat]

Bump

Anyone know how to avoid rendering to layout and only a view?

In this case, you set the 3rd params to null, like

[ooaat]

Thanks will, such an idiot, was trying to set it to false instead of obvious, NULL!!!

[ooaat]

One last issue I am having trouble trying to steam out is that for the following code;



This is successfully sending an email from view 'verify' as long as I don't request values from $email. Both $account and $contact_info work fine. This is the error



If I change the getView() in EMailer.php from renderPartial to render, all of $email values are accessible. However, that then renders with a layout which i don't want. I suspect some sort of conflict with the name email might be the reason but it would be great if someone could explain this to me.

[ooaat]

Found where the conflict was occurring in EMailer.php, changed code from this;

public function getView($view, $vars = array(), $layout = null)
  {
      $body = Yii::app()->controller->renderPartial($this->pathViews.'.'.$view, array_merge($vars, array('email'=>$this->_myMailer)), true);
      if ($layout === null) {
        $this->_myMailer->Body = $body;
      }
      else {
        $this->_myMailer->Body = Yii::app()->controller->renderPartial($this->pathLayouts.'.'.$layout, array('content'=>$body), true);
      }
  }

to this;

public function getView($view, $vars = array(), $layout = null)
  {
      $body = Yii::app()->controller->renderPartial($this->pathViews.'.'.$view, array_merge($vars, array('content'=>$this->_myMailer)), true);
      if ($layout === null) {
        $this->_myMailer->Body = $body;
      }
      else {
        $this->_myMailer->Body = Yii::app()->controller->renderPartial($this->pathLayouts.'.'.$layout, array('content'=>$body), true);
      }
  }

[will]

good catch! I hope the maintainer can release bug fix release.

[MetaYii]

Thanks, fixed in 2.2

Sorry if it takes me a bit to answer or follow the posts (being too busy here)
