This extension offers the possibility, to send mails from a defined queue. For example: Someone is registering on your website and now should get a set of Mails in the next days or weeks.
Install the extension and include the TypoScript Template.
You can define a Mailset in the TYPO3 List-Module, based on some Mails. Each Mail has the following settings:
- Title (only an internal label)
- Days To Send (the amount of days from creating a recipient to send this mail)
- Send Time (define a daytime, when you want to send this mail)
- Mail-Subject
- Mail-Text
In our Backend-Module you can create Recipients. Of course, you can do this also in your Extbase-Extension. A Recipient has the following fields:
- Start (define the Start Date and Time for sending the first Mail)
- First Name
- Last Name
- Parameter1 (optional for your use)
- Parameter2
- Parameter3
- Parameter4
- Parameter5
- Mail Group (choose one of your predefined Mailsets)
You can use every field from above as placeholder in your Mailtext.
For example: Hello {firstName},
Available placeholders are: {firstName}, {lastName}, {email}, {parameter1}, {parameter2}, {parameter3}, {parameter4}, {parameter5},
On saving the Recipient, the Mailqueue get filled with all Mails from the Mailset.
In our Backend-Module you find another view: Queue. Here you can see all Mails to the Recipients. You can delete Mails which are not sent. You see the Send-date and -time of already sent Mails.
You need a Scheduler-Task to send Mails out:
- go to the Scheduler in your TYPO3-Backend
- create a new Task and choose "Execute console commands"
- at "Schedulable Command. Save and reopen to define command arguments" choose: "wpmailworkflow:send-queue: Send mails from the queue."
- save and then fill out the appearing Arguments
- make other Settings of your choice and save
The mails get send as defined in your TYPO3 configuration in the Installtool.
Copy the delivered HTML Templates to your Sitepackage and adapt the paths in the Scheduler settings. Now you can create a nice style of your Mails.
