[SOLVED] Prevent mailalerts from sending an email

[devzk]

Hello,

 

in my store when someone buys a product mailalerts send 2 emails. One for the customer and another for the admin/merchant configured in Mailalerts's BO settings.

 

Via PHP I want to prevent mailalerts to send an email to admin/merchant when order state id equals 8.

 

I checked mailalerts.php module and it has the hook function hookActionValidateOrder($params);

 

I know inside $params there's an Order object and I can access it like $params['order'];

 

So the default code (prestashop untouched) is:  

$order = $params['order'];

And then I check if the state equals 8:

if ($order->current_state == 8) {
  return;
}

But mailalerts keep sending the email.

 

I'm checking the state in the right place?

 

Thanks.

Your code doesn't work this way. $order->current_state == 8 is referring to $order handeled as object. I don't think it is an object but rather an array with some values containing. You should dump the $order variable. If you are lucky, the current order state is already there. In my code further down I find the following which might work:

$order_state = $params['orderStatus'];

Scully, thank you so much it was that.

$order_state_id = $params['orderStatus']->id;

I'll check anyways what $params contains for further information.

 

Again, thanks!
