Laravel - How to send email to all users - email

Question

Im struggling to make a code that sends email to my subscribed users. I want to pass body to view according to users default language, can anyone help me ?
My code:
if($newsletter->save())
{
//get users to send to
$users = User::where('newsletter', '=', '1')->Where('activated', '=', '1')->get();
//Send to all users subscribed
foreach($users as $user)
{
//set info according to user default lang
if($user->default_lang == 'pt')
{
$body = $newsletter_pt;
$subject = Input::get('subject_PT');
}
elseif($user->default_lang == 'de')
{
$body = $newsletter_de;
Input::get('subject_DE');
}
$data = array(
'body' => $body,
'subject' => $subject
);
$from_name = Input::get('from_name');
$from_email = Input::get('from_email');
//QUEUE The Newsletters to send
Mail::queue('admin.newsletters.template1', $data, function($message) use ($user, $subject, $from_name, $from_email)
{
$message->from($from_email, $from_name);
$message->bcc($user->email, $user->name);
$message->subject($subject);
});
} //end foreach
return Redirect::To('admin/newsletters')->with('message', array("1" => "Newsletter enviada com sucesso !"));
}
Thanks a lot ;)

Answer 1

Ensure that the $data array has the information you expect to pass into the view before you call Mail::queue(). It should pass both a $body and $subject variable to your view.
You might also try using Mail::send() instead of Mail::queue() and see if it makes a difference (if you're not using a queueing system). Sometimes the queue() method can trip up when serializing Eloquent models, so if $newsletter_pt or $newsletter_de are Eloquent models they might not make it to the view intact.
