Title: Welcome Emails DB error, no email templates?
Post by: RendaTech on May 26, 2020, 08:56:48 PM
In my admin page under the Design section I see lots of options including Banner Manager and Forms Manager but there is no Email templates below that. The design guide says that's where Email templates should be, what am I missing?

Thanks for any ideas!!

What version of AbanteCart do you have? If you have 1.2.16 you should see email templates in design menu.

it looks like you had an errors during upgrade process.
Please check via phpMyAdmin is table email_templates exists

Just checked and you are right! I have no email_templates in phpMyAdmin. How do I re-add it or is there a way to restore? Perhaps someone has a copy of the generic templates that I could use? Thanks so much for the help so far. Would have never figured it out.

So I made another temporary AbanteCart install and copied over the email_templates DB and renamed it to fit the correct production DB name scheme. Now it shows in the phpMyAdmin but still wont show on in the Design tab. Do I need to reset anything? I did clear my browser cache and tried logging in/out to no avail.

What am I missing?

Please check attached file.
Open it and replace
Code: [Select]
`ac_ with your database table prefix.
Then run all queries from file via phpMyAdmin.
