I have a template called SALE
I added a button to my toolbar
I created a script

perform/newmessage/Sale/

that I assigned to the button ( i thinik I assigned it the button)

but the script is not working. If i click on DEBUG, the template message does not open. If I click the button, the message does not not open

What did I do wrong?

Command tags can be used directly in the buttons, you don't have to add them to a script (in fact the syntax for doing so in a script is different). If you simply want to use the command tag then enter it in the button area of the script setup form (i.e., set the "Button n" field to "/perform/newmessage/Sale/").

Note: The trailing slash is required. You can optionally add a recipient to this if necessary.

If it is your intention to take this process further (i.e, you eventually want to do more than just open the message) then you will have to resort to a script. If this is the case then please reply and I'll walk through the details.

Thanks - that ALMOST worked

/perform/newmessage/Sale/ is in the button n (button 2) field

I click the button (button 2) and I get a regular blank message, I do not get my template. My template is called Sale

Strange, I'd tested this before posting and it worked for me. I have to head off soon but will try to remember to check this tonight or tomorrow. If I forget a gentle prompt will help.

Gentle prompt

Make sure there is a trailing slash at the end of the template name. I get the same behaviour you are describing if I omit the trailing slash but the template when the trailing slash is used.

I just did a copy/paste
here is what I have

/perform/newmessage/sale/

Now I am confused, I have exactly the same setting (including the template name) and it works for me. Hopefully someone else will be able to provide some insight.

For the record, my setting is:

Code: Select all: /perform/newmessage/sale/

is the template name case sensitive?

by **ericjacobowitz** » Sat May 07, 2005 1:00 pm

/perform/newmessage/sale/
/perform/newmessage/sale.txt/
/perform/newmessage/Sale/
/perform/newmessage/Sale.txt/

none of them worked

I am using Pocomail 3.4.2130

Ok - I got it working!
THank you for your help

I renamed my template. I deleted the name and just renamed it sale. Maybe I had an extra space or something, but now it is working
