Custom checkout cart – How to send email after successful checkout
Recently I have been working on a custom checkout page for one of our clients in Sweden. I had some trouble figuring out how to send default Magento order email with all of the order info. After an hour or so of studying Magento core code, here is the solution on how to send email after successful order has been made.
< ?php
$order = new Mage_Sales_Model_Order();
$incrementId = Mage::getSingleton('checkout/session')->getLastRealOrderId();
$order->loadByIncrementId($incrementId);
try
{
$order->sendNewOrderEmail();
} catch (Exception $ex) { }
?>Not sure how useful this alone will be for you, so I’ll throw a little advice along the way. When trying to figure how to reuse Magento code, separate some time to study the Model classes with more detail. Then “tapping into” and reusing some of them should be far more easier.
Cheers…

Hi
Can you post an article for
1) Send a email for Pending Cart
OR
2) Failed transactions/checkout process
Hi Branko,
Thank you for your post, it was useful to me.
It works fine on Mangeto 1.5.1
Not sure on which page I had to put the code.
I put it on the controller of my custom payment method juste before the redirection on the success page.
Hi Guy,
Above code under which page I need to add?
I am using Magento 1.4.1.
Thank you
Nice post. You saved me one more time. =]
Very helpful code………..
Branko,could you please tell me that how can I send a email on order failure.
very helpful to me…thanks a lot 🙂
Thanks for this work! Really helpful!
How could I adapt this code to send the invoice as attached file in the mail?
Hi Mohit, thanks for explaining that… as you can tell I am only a hacker, not a programmer. 🙂
Another job well done by Branko…..
The ‘try’ and ‘catch’ blocks are a way in php to handle exceptions,to avoid unpredictable behavior in case of an error .Thus , these are not comments .Comments are always within // or /* */.
Thank you for that. I added it to the “checkout/onepage/success.phtml” at the top, and finally my TPV payment gateway sends an email to the client.
I still can’t get it to send me, the admin , an email, but this is great progress.
One question.. the word ‘try’ in the code, is that a PHP expression, or a comment?
Thanks again for saving my weekend.
Is it possible to send “thank you” e-mail after 2 weeks of purchase?
How could that be done?
@Trev
This code is written for Magento 1.2. Recently I had an upgrade of the same site I implemented this code to latest Magento 1.3.2.4, and it seems to be working OK. To reply on the “what file It needs to be added to”… you can add it to any custom made view file and just call it like core/template type of block.
Cheers.
I’d really like to add this to my site but not sure where or what file It needs to be added to. Branko, could you give us an idea please?
Where can I edit this code in Magento, sorry totally newbie here!
Hi,
I am having problem using Buckaroo from opensphere.nl , I does not send new order email. After I create the invoice then it sends an email but not the first new order email. Pls help.
Here is the code:

exit;
}

{

$session->setQuoteId($session->getPaypalStandardQuoteId(true));
/**

*/
Mage::getSingleton(‘checkout/session’)->getQuote()->setIsActive(false)->save();
/**

$order = Mage::getModel(‘sales/order’);
$order->load(Mage::getSingleton(‘checkout/session’)->getLastOrderId());
if($order->getId()){
$order->sendNewOrderEmail();
}
//Mage::getSingleton(‘checkout/session’)->unsQuoteId();

Thanks! You wouldn’t know how i can include transaction ID from DIBS which is stored in sales_order_entity_text – as far as i can see – into the email-template?
