When an administrator want to edit/change an order, the order will be canceled and a new order will be created. After completing the order, the administrator receives a New Order mail. From my experience this is a different email then a customer receives when he/she completes a new order.
I would like to customize the admin "changed order" email. Where can I find it?
My system sends emails on behalf of my users (each user has customers).
When a customer replies to that email, it should reply to my app email instead so I can utilise the inbound parse functionality.
However, I want to display the user's email in the from/reply-to field. Is this possible?
from and reply-to are not the same thing. Send from the user's address in the from field, then use your app's email in the reply-to.
Is it possible to have checkbox in the customer table where Admin can tick who he want to send email? For example he wants to send email to John and Patrick, all he has to do is Tick John and Patrick and click on send email button. Is it possible to do in cakephp? I have been googling but cannot find the answer I am looking for.
You need to get the ids of the users you've checked and from the ids you can get their email addresses and then simply do a foreach() to send an email to all selected users or put them into an email queue system.
For some users in our application, the email field returns NULL even if the user has granted the email access to the app.
When we check the scope parameter and the validity of the user Token thanks to the Debugger tool, everything is ok. The permission email has been accepted.
But when we ask the Graph API for the email of the user with the valid user token, it does not appear at all.
Is there a way a user could prevent an app from getting his email even if he granted the email permission?
Thanks
I had the same problem and I think I found out why:
If the user has an unconfirmed email in Facebook (i.e. Facebook sent him a validation mail to the user's email address but he didn't respond) Facebook WILL NOT pass that email to your app even if he gave you the email permissions.
So what I did is use his or her Facebook email if the user has a user name (i.e. userName#facebook.com).
I have the same issue. It is working fine on my localhost, i am using php SDK for facebook login and when i submit my request it's return all the fields like email,name etc of the user but on server somehow it is not working.It will not returns user email.
I have done lots of R&D on that and i have the solution for the issue. :)
$profile = $facebook->api('/me?fields=email,first_name,last_name');
if you are using php-sdk just passes fields like this it returns the email,first_name etc.
Hopes it works for you all.
thanks.
All you need to know:
1) Link 1
Some possible reasons:
No Email address on account
No confirmed email address on account
No verified email address on account
User entered a security checkpoint which required them to reconfirm their email address and they have not yet done so
Users's email address is unreachable
You also need the 'email' extended permission, even for users who have
a valid, confirmed, reachable email address on file.
2) Link 2
Note, even if you request the email permission it is not guaranteed
you will get an email address. For example, if someone signed up for
Facebook with a phone number instead of an email address, the email
field may be empty.
Facebook does not send the email if the user has logged in with their phone number.
View the comments on https://github.com/mkdynamic/omniauth-facebook/issues/61 for more info.
You must give email permission along with the auth button.
authButton.setReadPermissions(Arrays.asList("email"));
In some cases Facebook may not have a valid email address for a user:
email: string containing a valid RFC822 email address - note: this
field may be null if no email address is available for the user
see https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/api/user/
#ozba solution is not applicable because facebook now shows an alert message when user has an unconfirmed email address. So, if you're having this problem it's more liking that the user had signed up using phone number.
Some possible reasons:
No Email address on account (only phone number)
No confirmed email address on account
User entered a security checkpoint which required them to reconfirm their email address and they have not yet done so users's email address is unreachable.
Check: https://developers.facebook.com/bugs/298946933534016
According to the documentation:
Note, even if you request the email permission it is not guaranteed you will get an email address. For example, if someone signed up for Facebook with a phone number instead of an email address, the email field may be empty.
That would explain why some users have a null email!
Facebook will provide you a user's email id if and only that user has a confirmed email id associated with his account. If your app can retrieve email id for some users, problem may not with the Developer.
I have read previous responses but though some of them true like if the user has not email confirmed but a mobile phone number, many times this error happens for ignoring how to request the information using FB api graph. Let's say your login was successfully done, and you now have an access token and user id an so on but still, cannot see email and other fields you are interested in. Go ahead using this request after confirming login status as connected:
FB.api(
'/me',
'GET',
{"fields":"id,name,birthday,email,about,cover"},
function(response) {
// Insert your code here
}
);
depends on permissions you requested you now will be able to catch further information according to your needs.
you can try this it will work
String email = user.getProperty("email").toString();
String safeEmail = user.asMap().get("email").toString();
You need one more permission from facebook.
include (about_me) permission to the facebook dev setting and also in your app or code..
Just you need to add more permissions to whatever data you want from Facebook object about your user.
Facebook API
$loginUrl = $facebook->getLoginUrl(
array(
'req_perms' => 'email'
)
);
I'm using Register with Facebook as one of the ways to log in to my web app, and expressly ask for the "email" permission..
On login, some of the user data ($facebook->api('/me')) is stored into the users database, however, sometimes the email field just doesn't exist - is this a common problem?
Just a guess...
The facebook documentation says:
note: this field will not be returned if no valid email address is available for the user
Source: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/api/user/
So when an email address become invalid (users who haven't used facebook in years and have destroyed/changed their email address since for example), facebook may stop returning this field.
5% of invalid address may sounds big, but if I check my facebook friends, I think more than 5% of them never use their account, and I wouldn't be surprised if the address they used when they signed in is now invalid.
Users don't always have to provide an email address in order to use Facebook. They can also sign up via SMS, though it's far less common.
In short, FB won't always have an email address, so can't serve it to your app.
Try:
// Just to make sure email are permitted
//$facebook->getLoginUrl(array('req_perms' => 'email'))
// Request email
FB.api('/me?scope=email', function(response) { /*...*/ });
Or:
$email = $facebook->api('user_id?fields=email');
PROBLEMS:
The user changed the visibility of its email address to "only me" and thus you have no way to get it.
The user registered with SMS instead of email as mentioned in the previous answer.
ALTERNATIVE:
If you absolutely need to contact the user but you cannot get its email address nyou can still get its Facebook email (everybody has this email): "user_name#facebook.com".
If the user uses a POP server he will directly receive the email in GMail or others, if not he will receive your email as a private message. The only drawback if this method is that your email must be "plain/text" and not "HTML".
One thing is Users don't always have to provide an email address in order to use Facebook(could have registered through mobile)- as mentioned by Colm. Apart from this-
Please check that if the user has definitely granted you the email extended permission or it hasn't subsequently been revoked. To have a check on this you could use the permissions api-
/USER/permissions
I had similar problem & I found the cause for this. This problem occurs for users who have not set their Primary Email Address (They have many email address but they haven’t pointed out which is their primary email address) under General Account setting tab.
I tried using such accounts on various famous sites which has Facebook login & even they couldn’t retrieve the email address from such accounts.
So, its not the problem with the code(Assuming u have asked for permissions). We just have to handle such scenarios & let users know that we didn’t receive their email address. Like Klout does.
Thanks
In addition to what #Jigar Jain wrote above, users can actually uncheck the email permission during the sign inflow. If that's the case, his/her email address will not be returned by Facebook.
It's up to you to implement a logic that makes login unsuccessful if user unchecks the email permission, to force your users to choose another login method that will guarantee that a return of user's email address.
It is not mandatory for someone to give their email address while signing up with Facebook. An alternate approach would be to ask the user to link their email id in the Facebook account settings. That way you can fetch the email id, if that's a mandatory field in your DB. Otherwise you can continue with the id provided by FB which is unique.
