sanj,

You would need to edit the code of your script.  Immediately after processing the sale, add lines similar to as mentioned here:

hi,

I'm confused about one thing.

the field

firstname is called name,
email is called email
title is called ordextra1
and medical condition is called ordextra2 in my shopping cart order page.

the same fields are called fname, lname, email and user1 in list mail.

I'm using the following codes in my form to post the data to lmp

$url = "http://www.example.com/responder/signup.php?list=4&email=".urlencode($_POST['email'])."&fname=".urlencode($_POST['fname'])."&seq=1&del=0&overwritedupes=1";
$ch = curl_init($url);
curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);

What I'm confused about is should i be using the field names from the cart form or lmp.

ie for medical condition should i use ordextra2 or user1 in the code above.

thanks
sanj

sanj,

You will need to put your cart variables into ListMail.  Note that these may not necessarily match up with what is displayed in the cart interface, etc.  You will need to get the names of these variables from within the PHP code for your cart.

ie:

$url = "http://www.example.com/responder/signup.php?list=4&email=".urlencode($cart_email)."&fname=".urlencode($cart_name)."&user1=".urlencode($cart_orderid)."&seq=1&del=0&overwritedupes=1";
$ch = curl_init($url);
curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);

Please let me know if I can be of further assistance

Regards

hi Dean,

I'm using the following codi in my shopping cart just after the submit button and nothing is happening.

<?php

$url = "https://www.worldofmagnets.co.uk/responder/signup.php?list=4&email=".urlencode($_POST['ordEmail'])."&fname=".urlencode($_POST['ordExtra1'])."&lname=".urlencode($_POST['ordName'])."&user1=".urlencode($_POST['ordCheckoutExtra1'])."&seq=1&del=0&overwritedupes=1";
$ch = curl_init($url);
curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);
?>

What am I doing wrong?

Hi SanJ,

Try echoing the variable $url to make sure it's as expected with a line such as follows:

Code: [Select]

echo $url.'<br>';

Looks like you need to check your variables - they don't seem to be coming through to be able to be put into the URL.

Get this working and you should be all set:

Code: [Select]

echo $_POST['ordEmail'].'<br>';
echo $_POST['ordExtra1'].'<br>';
echo $_POST['ordName'].'<br>';
echo $_POST['ordCheckoutExtra1'].'<br>';

Are you sure your shopping cart is not sending the vars in $_GET ?

I've edited your posts for your privacy.

hi Dean,

Thanks for you input. But i still can't get this to work!!!

can i email you the shopping cart page script so that you can take a look at it and tell me what I'm doing wrong.
I'm finding it quite hard to find the right variables

SanJ,

I don't know the cart software off-hand... Investigating such a hands-on issue would require a token payment of at least $20, the cost of an update from http://listmailpro.com/support.  This would cover my investigation time, explanation of the problem and resolution.

Hi Sanj,

I've been busy - thanks for payment!  I can help with this but it could take a little longer than normal because I need to learn your shopping cart, and it's late:).  Please view your support ticket for details.
