action hook Client to Group based on Purchased Items

[Kian]

Automatically assign customers to a client group based on purchased product/service, product addon and configurable options. It works only for customers that haven't been assigned to any group yet. Below we're going to show you how to define group/product pairs. Let's take this code as example.

$groups['products']['1'] = array('1', '2', '3');
$groups['products']['2'] = array('4');
$groups['productaddons']['1'] = array('2');
$groups['configurableoption']['3'] = array('5' => true, '6' => array('7', '8', '10'));

They key of the first level of $groups array (eg. ['products']) can assume the following values:

• products for group/product pairs
• productaddons for group/product addon pairs
• configurableoption for group/configurable option paris

They key of the second level of $groups array (['1'], ['2']) represents the client group ID. array() stores product IDs, product addon IDs and configurable options. Let's put it into practice explaining what the above configuration means:

• Customer A purchases product 1. He goes to client group ID 1
• Customer B purchases product 2. He still goes to client group ID 1
• Customer C purchases product 4. He goes to client group ID 2
• Customer D purchases product 5. No action taken
• Customer E purchases product 1 and is already assigned to a client group. No action taken
• Customer F purchases product addon 2. He goes to client group ID 1
• Customer G purchases a product selecting any value of configurable option ID 5. He goes to client group ID 3
• Customer H purchases a product selecting specifically 7, 8 or 10 options of configurable option ID 6. He goes to client group ID 3

The script is available in two versions. The configuration is the same. What changes is the hook point:

• AcceptOrder version assigns the group when the order is accepted - both manually and automatically
• EmailPreSend version assign the group a moment before WHMCS sends the Welcome Email - any type (eg. Hosting, VPS, CodeGuard, Marketgoo...). This way the group just assigned is immediately ready for use in email templates

how do i add this code?

should i create it as a file and upload it directly to the hook folder?

I have created the file and add to my hook.

 

apart from the product id and group id numbers that am changing, is there anything other thing to modify (i am using the EmailPresendVersion)

 

Thanks
