Sending emails using database and template file - El Forum - 11-20-2011
[eluser]Gukkie[/eluser]
Hi, i am currently confused on how to make this work.
I wanna store my email subject, body in a database, i want to use a common email template to then gather n store the values and then send out the mail, how do i go about doing this?
Right now, i have a registration page so when a user registers successfully, an email gets sent.
Also i have a email_template_view.php file in my views directory.
Here,s my code in the User Controller for now:
Code:
if($this->User_model->register_user_model() == TRUE)
{
$this->load->library('email');
// Send activation email and redirect to success page
$this->email->clear(TRUE);
$this->email->to($email);
$this->email->from('[email protected]', 'My Site');
$this->email->subject('Activation Link');
$this->email->message('<html><body>Activate: <a href="http://www.domain.com/user/account_activation/'.$activationkey.'">Click Here to activate account</a></body></html>');
if($this->email->send())
{
$this->register();
}
}I would greatly appreciate if someone could guide me on how i go about achieving this
Cheers!
