Hi,
our app may need to send emails based on the users tenant, so we will have many smtp accounts on hand…
is there somewhere central where we can make changes to the default smtp info on the fly s we can change it based on this tenant? – similar to the db info function.
trying not todo this on each table in the emailing function.
thanks,
JS
It depends on when you know the “tenent” and its SMTP info. If you know it before the page is loaded, you may simply change Config("SMTP").
the info would be stored with each tenant/customer and each account is a member of a “tenant/customer” – we would lookup the users tenant id and if the smtp info is available, use it otherwise use the defaults.
when you mean page load – for each table?.. would there be any more streamlined way to load this, wasn’t looking forward to copying to each table, but if that’s the only way…
thanks,
JS
That means you only know the SMTP info after the user is logged in, then you may try change Config("SMTP") by server event.
Thanks,
correct only after login… I’ll experiment thanks.
for the default pages like you said, we can use the default smtp sending account
we tried in the logged in function.
$config = Config();
$config->set("SMTP.SERVER", "SMTP.MYSERVER.XYZ");
$config->set("SMTP.SERVER_PORT", "9999");
$config->set("SMTP.SECURE_OPTION", "ssl");
$config->set("SMTP.SERVER_USERNAME", "noone@yahoo.xyz");
$config->set("SMTP.SERVER_PASSWORD", "PASSWORD");
seems to change the settings, but in the actual functions when the email is prepared
its using the original settings found in config.pro.php
is it too early at user_logged in perhaps and being overwritten?
as well, just tested with the above in a pageLoad() where an email function will be called and it also seems to have the default config settings…
not sure what I’m doing wrong
thanks
I think we figured it out, looks like we don’t have to add the code in all the tables.
all the messages don’t get sent immediately, they are stored in a “email queue” table, so that makes it much easier.
we just added this code in our email queue send function, before the $email->send(), this appears to have changed the smtp items as set in the tenant’s record
