EMAIL templates + translations not working or missing


Recommended Posts

Hi, I know many people had this problem, but I can't find an easy and clear solution to it, so I will try with a new post.

I am using Prestashop 1.6.1.0 and a custom theme. I made a minor change to the first Core e-mail and that messed up everything. Now the template show me a blu background in the HTML version, even tho it looks ok if I go on the "Modify HTML version".

Moreover, all translations for the email disappeared! It would tell me about missing directories, that I then created but with no content. It's a big mess now! Situation, as it is now:

 

EMAIL TEMPLATES > DEFAULT-BOOTSTRAP THEME > ENGLISH

Core emails are OK but all other e-mails are missing giving this message:

C'è un problema nel ricevere il file di posta.
Assicurati che i files inglesi presenti nella cartella /home/docpharm/public_html/lattepannolini.it/themes/default-bootstrap/modules/blockwishlist/mails/en/

There is a problem receiving mail files. Be sure that english files are in the folder home/docpharm/public_html/lattepannolini.it/themes/default-bootstrap/modules/blockwishlist/mails/en/

I verified and the folder is there but empty, as said. And I also get a message that mail directories for the other modules are missing.

EMAIL TEMPLATES > DEFAULT-BOOTSTRAP THEME > ITALIAN

Same problem as above, but also for Core emails

 

EMAIL TEMPLATES > CUSTOM-TEMPLATE > ENGLISH

 

Same problem as above, also for Core emails and top red message:

Il file di traduzione dell'oggetto email non è stato trovato in "/home/docpharm/public_html/lattepannolini.it/themes/genesis/mails/en/".

No e-mail subject translation file found on ""/home/docpharm/public_html/lattepannolini.it/themes/genesis/mails/en/"

 

EMAIL TEMPLATES > CUSTOM-TEMPLATE > ITALIAN

Same problem as above, but no red message.

 

I can start restoring all single folders that the system is telling me are missing, but what content do I put in them? How can I restore the original templates and translation for all emails? Core + all single modules...?

 

I am going crazy after this...

 

Thanks to all for your help! Let me know if you need more info.

I also had this problem. Luckily I had a back up of the email files. Basically they are fine UNLESS you alter them in Prestashop. As soon as you press save, all the text formatting gets wiped out. I checked a modified file against the original, and Prestashop strips ALL of the code outside the <body> tag. I have no idea why, but its extremely annoying!

For all who facing this issue - got this problem today, PS:1.6.1.13. 

 

Checked out logs and see "missing tamplate". I go down to FTP, check it and everything was there as it should be, but for some reason, the leanguage folder was named in CAPITAL LETTERS. For me, English and Czech was "EN" and "CS". I rename those to non-capitalized "en" and "cs" and everything starts to work again.
