Joomla Messaging System

AcyMailing uses the core Joomla messaging system to display messages on your website so if you don't see any message when you subscribe a user, that's probably because your Joomla template does not contain the tag to display Joomla messages: <jdoc:include type="message" />

Please edit the index.php file from your template and make sure the tag <jdoc:include type="message" /> is added to it.
If not, please add it just before the tag <jdoc:include type="component" />

This tag should already be present in all templates.

JCE

Since AcyMailing 1.5.0, the stylesheet you created on your Newsletter template will be loaded inside your editor so you will have the same result on your editor, on the preview and on the e-mail.

This system works natively in TinyMCE, FCK and JoomlaCKEditor but we could not make this system working without modifying JCE.

You can select an other editor than JCE on the AcyMailing configuration page but you can also apply this patch:

JCE 1.5.7.x

• Edit the file "plugins/editors/jce.php".
• Around line 213 you should see:



• Then add this code just after the previous code:
  if(!empty($this->params)){
  $customtemplate = $this->params->get('custom_css_file');
  if(!empty($customtemplate)){
  $customtemplate = JURI::root(true).'/'.$customtemplate;
  $vars['content_css'] = $customtemplate;
  }
  }

• You're done! Now the AcyMailing Newsletter CSS template will be automatically loaded in JCE when you edit your template or Newsletter.
  Of course, it won't interfere with your standard template file when you write Joomla content.

JCE 1.5.6.x

• Edit the file "plugins/editors/jce.php".
• Around line 165 you should see:

• Then add this code just after the previous code:
  if(!empty($this->params)){
  $customtemplate = $this->params->get('custom_css_file');
  if(!empty($customtemplate)){
  $customtemplate = JURI::root(true).'/'.$customtemplate;
  $vars['content_css'] = $customtemplate;
  }
  }



• You're done! Now the AcyMailing Newsletter CSS template will be automatically loaded in JCE when you edit your template or Newsletter.
  Of course, it won't interfere with your standard template file when you write Joomla content.

TinyMCE 3.2.4

With an old version of TinyMCE, the editor may not be loaded when you edit your Newsletter.

You can either change the editor you use via the AcyMailing configuration page (tab "interface") or update TinyMCE to the latest version (by updating Joomla for example).

JoomFish 2.1.5 -> 2.1.7: 500 - No valid database connection

There is a bug in a recent JoomFish release (in 2.1.5 and 2.1.6) which breaks the nested queries and causes this kind of error message:

This bug does not only concern AcyMailing but many other components and the JoomFish forum already wrote a workaround (use mysqli instead of mysql in "Site -> Global Configurations -> Server") but a real fix has been submitted on their forum and implemented in JoomFish 2.1.7, the solution is to update JoomFish.

GuardXT : Warning: include_once(.../administrator/components/com_acymailing/helpers/mailer.php) [function.include-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory

GuardXT may rename the mailer.php file into mailer.php_guardxt which will break AcyMailing.

You should connect via FTP to your website and rename the file administrator/components/com_acymailing/helpers/mailer.php_guardxt into mailer.php
