if I send mails, but they can give me a hint on how to get the data you saved to send??
I've tried using Jdom like the view but does not work says: Body empty data
Any idea?

$body = $result['nombre_propiedad'];
$body =<?php echo JDom::_('html.fly', array(
						'dataKey' => 'nombre_propiedad',
						'dataObject' => $row,
						'route' => array('view' => 'propiedadesitem','layout' => 'propiedadesitem','cid[]' => $row->id)
					));?>

If it is new data, then use something like $body. =$data['the_field '] If it's data already stored, use jDom or use a query to get the data you need

@VeCrea : not clear.

This post is starting to be a mess. I do not understand the source of anybody.

@pinochet :
I can see you are struggling.
Don't worry. This functionality will pop up soon I think.

If you can wait a little bit, I will integrate it in a very simple mode :
- When a new item is created NOT by a user without ACL 'core.edit.state'... So publish = 0
- Mean that the item is waiting for approval => sending mail to system admin

It will not integrate more features for the moment. In order to keep it simple.
Let me just finish to answer all the missed topics (soon finished)

jonathanbell Offline Premium Member Posts: 147 Thank you received: 5 Karma: 1	Ok here we go. I have a table and view called moderators in my component which I can load users into that are in the end the people who get emailed anytime an update is done. So basically I want to be able to place a call to a mail script from anyone of my views when an event is submitted to the list of users in the moderator table. Hope that makes sense?

Yeah,

Fork the controller for the item from the table you want to mail updates, lets call the table "events".
So, create in your fork folder a subfolder "controllers". Copy the event.php (not events.php!) from the _fork/controllers folder which is generated.

Now, open the admin/controllers/event.php and copy/paste the function "save" into your forked event.php. When you want to have a mail when an event is inserted or another data manipulation, just copy those functions too (add/delete).

In your forked event.php, create a function MailModerators or whatever you need and create the code to mail the moderators in there (assuming you know how)
Then, call that function in the save function just after $result = parent::save();

Similar to the add() function.
