Can someone help.

I have an oscommerce cart. I have a customer control panel where I can see the customer id names, etc. How can i add customer email address to that panel.

Also how can i send email to all my customers or to a selected customers.

thank you.

oscommerce has an inbuilt email function in the admin control panel, you'd do well to glance over the admin, tbh.

tools > send email (mail.php) -- has options for individuals, all customers, or all newsletter subscribers.

To display the email address in the customers panel, you need to insert a new column in the page design (lines ~ 750 onwards) to echo it; like so:

<td class="dataTableContent"><?php
echo $customers['customers_email_address'];
//or maybe $cInfo['customers_email_address']
//I can't remember
?></td>

Thanks, but my OSCommerce is part of my hosting service and it is controlled by my host company. I am only using it as a service in my cpanel. Please how can I add the email field and how can I email my customers. There is no tool for it on the panel.

I hope you can help.

Email addresses are stored in the 'customers' table. If you're unable to edit osCommerce as I defined in the above post, then you really don't have much hope.
