Sending emails automatically when...
May 14, 2008, 08:18:24 am
Hi (in full spamming mode ;),

I like the feature to send an email at the end of the registration, and would like to extend it to other actions:

- sending an email when changing the status ("you just been approved")
- sending an email when adding a contact using a profile (to the one that registered)


Am I missing something ? Is this something hackable (through hooks using the template email feature ?)

Any suggestion more than welcome.

Please check http://civicrm.org/architecture/ to get a better idea of the code.

I suspect u 've to add code for sending receipts in CRM/Event/Form/Participant.php and CRM/Event/Form/Registration.php

You might be able to do some (most?) of this using hooks in a small module. For example you can use a post_hook to take action based on evaluating params after a contact is created (your "add contact via profile" case).

Code: [Select]
'objectName' can have the following values:

    * 'Individual'
    * 'Household'
    * 'Organization'
    * 'Group'
    * 'GroupContact'
    * 'Relationship'
    * 'Contribution'
    * 'Profile'
          o while this is not really an object, people have expressed an interest to perform an action when a profile is created/edited
    * 'Membership'
    * 'UFMatch'
Am I right if I understand that there isn't any hook on the participant ? Would it be possible to add it easily ?
