I am customizing my email by writing a block in template file,
in email template
{{block type='core/template' area='frontend' template='email/external/customer.phtml'}}
and template/email/external/customer.phtml is
$fieldsName = Mage::getSingleton('core/session')->getFields();
Mage::getSingleton('core/session')->unsFields();
$message = Mage::getSingleton('core/session')->getMessage();
Mage::getSingleton('core/session')->unsMessage();
$emailTemplateData = Mage::getSingleton('core/session')->getEmailTemplateData();
Mage::getSingleton('core/session')->unsEmailTemplateData();
?>
<p style="padding: 5px;"><?php echo $message; ?></p>
<?php if ($emailTemplateData) : ?>
<table style="width:75%; padding: 5px;">
<tr style="padding: 5px;">
<td> <strong><?php echo "Field"; ?></strong></td>
<td> <strong><?php echo "Data"; ?></strong></td>
</tr>
<?php foreach ($emailTemplateData as $key => $value): ?>
<tr>
<td> <?php echo $fieldsName[$key] . ":"; ?></td>
<td> <?php echo $value; ?></td>
</tr>
<?php endforeach; ?>
</table>
<?php endif; ?>
and email is being send like
public function sendEmail($subject, $fieldsName, $message, $emailTemplateData) {
//Want to send these not this way
Mage::getSingleton('core/session')->setFields($fieldsName);
Mage::getSingleton('core/session')->setMessage($message);
Mage::getSingleton('core/session')->setEmailTemplateData($emailTemplateData);
$emailTemplateVariables = array();
$emailTemplateCode = "External Customer Creation"; //Email Template Code
$emailTemplate = Mage::getModel('core/email_template')->loadByCode($emailTemplateCode);
$emailSubject = $subject; //Email Subject
$emailTemplateVariables['templateMessage'] = ""; //Variables for Confirmation Mail.
$senderName = Mage::getStoreConfig('trans_email/ident_general/name'); //Getting the Store E-Mail Sender Name.
$senderEmail = Mage::getStoreConfig('trans_email/ident_general/email'); //Getting the Store General E-Mail.
//Appending the Custom Variables to Template.
$processedTemplate = $emailTemplate->getProcessedTemplate($emailTemplateVariables);
//Sending email to listed id under
//"Admin >> System >> Configuration >> Customer >> Customer Configuration >> External Source Customer Creation >> Confirmation email recipients"
$emailIds = Mage::getStoreConfig('customer/external_source_customer/confirmation_email_to');
$toEmailList = explode(",", $emailIds);
foreach ($toEmailList as $toEmail) {
$mail = Mage::getModel('core/email')
->setToName($toName)
->setToEmail($toEmail)
->setBody($processedTemplate)
->setSubject($emailSubject)
->setFromEmail($senderEmail)
->setFromName($senderName)
->setType('html');
try {
$mail->send();
} catch (Exception $e) {
Mage::logException($e);
}
}
}
And my email template is like...
<style>
ul {
margin-left: 0;
padding-left: 14px;
}
</style>
<body style="background:#F6F6F6; font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size:12px; margin:0; padding:0;">
<div style="background:#F6F6F6; font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size:12px; margin:0; padding:0;">
<table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" width="100%">
<tr>
<td align="center" valign="top" style="padding:20px 0 20px 0">
<table bgcolor="#FFFFFF" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="10" border="0" width="650" style="border:1px solid #E0E0E0;font-size:12px;">
<!-- [ header starts here] -->
<tr>
<td colspan='2' valign="top"><a href="{{store url=""}}"><img src="{{skin url="images/abc-logo-225x83.png" _area="frontend" _package="default" _theme="abc"}}" alt="{{var logo_alt}}" style="margin-bottom:10px;" border="0"/></a></td>
</tr>
<!-- [ middle starts here] -->
<tr>
<td valign="top" colspan='2'>
<p style="line-height:16px; margin:0;">
{{block type='core/template' area='frontend' mydata=$fieldsName template='email/external/customer.phtml'}}
</p>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan='2' bgcolor="#EAEAEA" align="center" style="background:#EAEAEA; text-align:center;"><center><p style="font-size:12px; margin:0;">Thank you, <strong>abc Team</strong></p></center></td>
</tr>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
</body>
This is working fine. But this not a good way, as you can see I am passing data to session to get in my phtml file, what I want is that is there a way pass this data to phtml file in a proper way.
