Troubleshooting email delivery
Are emails not being received by customers, or being marked as spam?
There are a few emails that are sent out by Storeganise, such as:
- 'Welcome' message
- Order confirmations
- Invoices, receipts and reminders
- Password reset and email
If you or a customer has reported not receiving these messages, or that they are being marked as spam, please follow the steps below to troubleshoot the issue:
Check that email templates are enabled
Note: You must have the 'manager' role to do this.
Go to Main Settings > Email and verify that the relevant 'Email template' is checked.
Only email templates that are 'checked' will be sent out to customers. If the box is unchecked:
- Click the name of the template to open it
- Ensure the 'Enable email notification' box is checked
- Click 'Save'
Check the the customer/user's email address is correct
If emails are not being received at all, verify that the customer's email is correct by going to the User's page in Storeganise and double checking the email address in the 'Details' section.
If an email address is written in red, it means that it has not been 'verified'. This is a process where the user receives an email with a link. Clicking the link lets us know that the email address is valid and is controlled by the user. Once verification is complete, the email will appear in blue instead of red.
Completing a 'password reset' also verifies the email address automatically so this can be worth asking the customer to complete.
Check if the email is in the spam folder
Sometimes emails will be delivered, but marked by the customers' email provider as spam. Ask them to check folders such as spam, promotions etc. to see if the message is in there. If it is, ask them to add the business's email address to their address book so that future emails are delivered straight to their inbox.
