I have just upgraded my Databridge. Now I can't edit any new Emails I create

I have just upgraded my Databridge. Now I can't edit any new Emails I create

I can create a new 'Send Email' using the Server behaviours: Webassist > Send Email. However once I click finish I don't get the popup that allows me to edit the email body.

The code is added to my page (see attachment) but there is no way of editing it. Nothing appears in my server behaviours panel to allow me to click and edit it. I have tried it on different page but with each one I have the same problem. I have uploaded all the files Webassit creates ie webassist > email > templates and phpmailer. I have tried using a template for the body and selecting my own blank file, but nothing works.

I restarted Dreamweaver and now I can see the edit server behaviour.

How do I edit the body of the email if I have used a blank php page?

Do I edit the page as normal ie in Dreamweaver rather than through the send email behaviour as i did before? If that is the case where do I put the php scripts and recordsets that I want to use when I send the email - in the original page or the new php page I am using for the body of the email?

I have also tried to create a new email using one of the predefined templates but again I can't find how to edit the email body - it only allow you to preview the email not edit it,.

Yes, you can open and edit the body page in dreamweaver just like any other page now. You can add the recordsets directly to the email body page, or if you want to use a recordset from the original page you just need to declare it on the top of the email body page like:

<?php
global $Recordset1, $Recordset2;
?>

That way you can use any variables from the main page in the email as well.

Thank you. I have added <?php
global $imminentbalance, $emailone, $emailtwo, $emailthree;
?> at the top of the email body to pull in variables from the main page. $imminentbalance works because it is set before the DOCTYPE in the main page. the others ($emailone; $emailtwo; $emailthree) don't work - as they are set in the body of the main page, within a repeat region. Is there a way to make these work in the email body? I get this error when the email comes through...

I also seem to be having trouble adding recordsets to the email body page itself. If I add <?php require_once('../Connections/horizon_i.php'); ?> and
<?php require_once('../webassist/mysqli/rsobj.php'); ?> to the email body I get an error when submitting the form to send the email and if I don't include a connection script I get this error...

You can add $horizon_i to the globals and that should fix the issue creating record sets.

Any variables that aren’t defined before the email sends would have to be moved into the email body file and defined there as well.

Ah - I see. Great thanks it works.

I just wanted to say that I am really liking the new email server behavior - now I am getting to grips with how it works :)
