Magento 1.8.1 Not sending Order/Invoice emails - magento

I'm having an issue where my emails don't send to the client, or a copy to myself.
My website is hosted with one company, but my emails are on godaddy, and I had to set the MX records on my hosting differently. Do I need to change any settings on the website to reflect this?

Are you using multiple languages and have have copied the translated files in locale from->to ?
Go in "System > Transactional Emails" and create there the translated templates.
Go in "System > Configuration > Sales Email" and select for each (Order, invoice...) the before created Template from Transactional Email.

Joomla User & Reporting manager mapping

I want to implement leave management system in joomla. For every leave i want email notification to be sent to employee's manager (reporting manager). I need to do employee - > reporting manager mapping somewhere in database.
Is there any built in utility in joomla user groups which can help me? OR Do I need to simply create mapping table in database?
Please suggest.
We are looking for something very similar to run within a Joomla Intranet environment.
I have recently found an extension that might be the kind of thing you are looking for - have a look at Intranet Attendance Track by thagatpam in the extensions directory.
The extension can track attendance, leave, and has a manager approval system built-in.
Hope this helps.

Magento doesn't appear any default email template

I'm trying to create a transactional email in magento 1.7, but when I try to add a new template the default template select is empty and I can't continue creating it.
The problem comes from the fact that no email is set in the database and you can wether get the data from a clean installation or set it by yourself througth the admin : System > configuration > transactionnal emails.
I would advise you the second solution that is in my opinion safier and permits to define the email as you wish with the design you want to use.
If you do not have any default template in your selectbox, you can check under the app / locale / yourlanguage / template / email if you do not have anything, you should have under the en_US folder. You can copy and adapt. If you have nothing under these two folder, you can get it from a basic installation.

Unable to edit transactional emails on Magento Community v1.8.1

I am running Magento Community v1.8.1.
There are no entries in the drop down bar at Admin > System > Transactional Emails. Under sales emails, I see the default emails from Locale selected but I can't seem to edit these default emails.
How can I make the admin panel's drop down bar start showing these default emails ? Must I go into the PHP on my hosting site to edit anything to make this happen, else what should I do?
Greatly appreciate any help I can get on this!
You can have two kinds of transactional email templates: based on file ex. app/locale/en_US/template/email and based on database Admin \ System \ Transactional Emails.
If you read Default template from Locale it means that the files in app/locale/en_US/template folder are used.
If you want to create a Database template, you can copy the file content and paste it into a new Template in Admin \ System \ Transactional emails.

how to set customer of one store should not be able to login to another store in magento in single website

I am using latest magento 1.7.0.2.
I have two different stores in my site.
customer from first store should not be able to login to second store.
So,Want to set up store wise login for customers.How to set ?please help.
Unfortunately Magento only allows you to set "customer sharing" across the global and website scopes. The (maybe not so simple) solution would be to move your other store to a separate website instead of a separate store.
Found in System > Configuration > Customers > Customer Configuration:

Magento - New Order mail

I am using Magento 1.6.2.
I need to edit the new order mail. Which file is the template for the items? I need the specific file where the items are being generated and formatted.
I already found it.
app/design/frontend/base/default/template/email/order/items.phtml
To edit the New Order email you go into System -> Transactional Emails and click on 'Add New Template'.
Then you load in the existing New Order template by selecting 'New Order' from the drop down menu in the Template input field and click the 'Load Template' button. In the Template Information section you assign a new name to your new template and make the modifications to it before hitting 'Save Template'.
To apply it you go to System -> Configuration -> Sales and Select the Sales Emails option.
In the Order tab you apply your newly saved template to the New Order Confirmation Template dropdown.
Do the same for New order from Guest if you are allowing guest checkout.
The email templates are located under /app/locale/en_us/template/email and /app/locale/en_us/template/email/sales.
The disappointing thing about email templates in Magento is that they expect store owners to manage these using the backend rather than by editing the template files. Of course, you can always just edit the templates directly, but make sure to keep backups of them before updating to a new version of Magento.
It ends up being a lot of work, and from what I've seen, mostly clients do little more than update the logo. If your client wants to have fully custom email templates, expect a good 20+ hours to get them right (cross email client compatibility, client changes, etc).
