Add on Module Sending Emails

[websolve]

Hi Guys,

 

I am creating an add on module so that we can send out content form out to our clients. I have managed to do everything so far by interacting directly with the WHMCS database but have hit a snag.

 

I want to be able to send one of the emails from the email templates to the specific client. However I don't know how to do this or what function to call. I could obviously just use the API but this seems silly as I have access to all of the functions.

 

Any help would be great!!

The Api's servce 2 purposes one is external access, the other is "controlled access". When i say controlled it don't me that whmcs want to lock you out and make it hard, they just want to provide documented access.

 

So that if in the future they decide to change a function internally they don't have to think who is using that function. API's will/should always remain compatiable between versions.

Righty ho, that makes sense. API it is then, just didn't want to use the API when I could be using the direct functions but yeah what you say make sense!
