I have a custom admin module where I want to programatically create and share a wishlist.
I managed to create it programatically and to send the email (it arrives ok), but the "$wishlistBlock" and therefore, the email is empty.
I'm not such advanced in Magento yet, do I have to rewrite the model/modelresource/block or something like to get it working in my custom module? Tried a lot of different things, none worked.
This is the offending piece of code:
$emailModel = Mage::getModel('core/email_template');
$sharingCode = $wishlist->getSharingCode();
//this var returning empty
$wishlistBlock = Mage::getSingleton('core/layout')->createBlock('wishlist/share_email_items')->toHtml();
$emailModel->sendTransactional(
Mage::getStoreConfig('wishlist/email/email_template'),
Mage::getStoreConfig('wishlist/email/email_identity'),
$email,
null,
array(
'customer' => $customer,
'salable' => $wishlist->isSalable() ? 'yes' : '',
'items' => $wishlistBlock,
'addAllLink' => Mage::getUrl('*/shared/allcart', array('code' => $sharingCode)),
'viewOnSiteLink' => Mage::getUrl('*/shared/index', array('code' => $sharingCode)),
'message' => $message
)
);
$wishlist->setShared(1);
$wishlist->save();
Mage::dispatchEvent('wishlist_share', array('wishlist' => $wishlist));
Mage::getSingleton('adminhtml/session')->addSuccess(
$this->__('Your Wishlist has been shared.')
);
Thanks in advance.
