Booking confirmation not working
Closed

  • Tor started the conversation

    Hi, when I test sending out emails manually from the "aviseringar" (I believe it is notifications in english) page, the emails are sent successfully. 

    However, when I do a test booking from both admin page and inkognito no confirmation email is sent out. I have it set to automatically approve bookings.

    Also, when I tried putting it to "pending" and manually change the test bookings to "approved" no email was sent. 

    Also, when I added a coupon code I had to start approving all the bookings manually.


    I want the confirmation email to be sent out automatically, and I also want the bookings with coupon codes to be automatically be confirmed/approved.

    How do I fix this?

    Hello there,

    Thank you for reaching out to us.

    I'm afraid we don't understand what exactly you want to achieve and what exactly is the issue? Can you explain in a little more detail and send us some screenshots or a short one-minute video?

    Notifications either work or it does not.

    Please go to the notifications section inspect the page then try and send test notifications and then if there are any issues you will see the error in the network section. If there is any please send us a screenshot so that we can take a look.

    The error should show unless you are using PHP mail. We can help only if you are using SMTP if you are using WP mail which is this party plugin then you need to reach out to their support team and if you are using PHP mail you need to change this

    We strongly recommend changing the mail service setting to SMTP or Mailgun because the email that is sent with PHP Mail generally gets flagged as spam by mail servers and also can take some time to send. See below how to configure SMTP and Mailgun mail services.

    So please set the SMTP on your site

    • SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) – In this article, we show how to configure the SMTP mail service for Gmail, but you can set it up for any other outgoing service that supports SMTP for a mail client. When you select this option, four inputs will appear – you need to populate them to configure SMTP properly. A Google SMTP example:
      • SMTP Host – smtp.gmail.com
      • SMTP Port – 587
      • SMTP Secure – TLS
      • SMTP Username – Your Gmail address
      • SMTP Password – Your App password (details about setting up an app password can be found in the notice section below)

      The most commonly used SMTP Ports are 465 and 587. Port 465 uses “SSL” as SMTP Secure, while port 587 uses “TLS” as SMTP Secure. Make sure to check what the correct SMTP settings are for your mailing provider.

    Google SMTP (Gmail accounts):

    From 30 May 2022, Google will no longer support the use of third-party apps or devices which ask you to sign in to your Google Account using only your username and password, so “Allow less secure apps” will be removed.

    In order to continue using SMTP with Gmail, you will need to set up an App Password for Amelia. App Passwords can only be used with accounts that have 2-Step Verification turned on. Instructions about this can be found on Google’s Documentation, here.

    For detailed set-up instructions, please take a look at this article on our official support platform.

    Microsoft SMTP (outlook, hotmail, live, and office365 email accounts):

    If you’re having issues using SMTP with your Microsoft account, please make sure to set up an App Password for Amelia. App Passwords can only be used with accounts that have 2-Step Verification turned on in the Security Basics section of your Microsoft account. Instructions about this can be found on Microsoft’s Documentation, here.

    For detailed set-up instructions, please take a look at this article on our official support platform.

    Hope this helps. 

    Kind Regards,

    Now the email notification system works properly. Still the problem that the booking is "pending" after the customer booked. I want it to instantanously be approved, and send the approved mail instead of the pending mail.

    In the settings it is set to always make the bookings "approved", but it isn't working.

    Hello agian,

    Please check 2 settings

    1. Minimum capacity for this service in 

    services edit service 

    and 

    In the employee modal in assigned services

    If the minimum capacity is set to 2 or more and when only 1 customer book they will get pending status because minimum capacity is not reached but as soon as second customer book they all will get the approved status

    2. In services edit service settings check the status for this service since each service can have different status set

    Hope this helps. 

    Kind Regards,

    I have a minimum booking of 1, maximum of 50. But really I want  it to be unlimited, so an endless amount of people could book at the same time, but I don't know how to do that.

    Hello again,

    When you have several questions or issues please open a new ticket, and we will help you there. In that way, issues and questions that are related to different subjects will be in separate tickets so other customers or our support agents can find them easily. 

    Our policy is to have one issue or question per ticket because of the reasons that are described already.

    Thank you for understanding. 

    This is a separate issue then the pending status.

    In settings appointment settings you have option to allow booking above maximum capacity

    Should you have any further inquiries, we kindly request that you open separate tickets for each question and we will gladly help you there.

    We wish you all the best and hope you have a wonderful day ahead.
