Now, let’s see how the Magento 2 Abandoned Cart Email extension can be configured from the backend.
Backend
Let’s start our exploration of the MageDelight Abandoned Cart Email module’s backend part from its configuration section. To access the extension’s main settings, navigate to Stores -> Settings -> Configuration -> Magedelight -> Abandoned Cart. The settings are divided into three sections: License Configuration, General, and Test Email Configurations.
In License Configuration, you should enter your serial and activation keys which you can find in the email sent after purchase of the module.
In the General tab, you select one or multiple domains for which the license is configured. The list of available websites will appear after you activate the keys mentioned above. The next option lets you enable/disable the module. Then, you decide whether to send reminder emails to guest visitors, configure “Stop After Visiting” setting (select Yes to stop sending emails after a user goes back to the cart), and specify the time in minutes after which a cart will be considered abandoned.
Next, you can enable/disable the Remove History option and specify the period after which to clear abandoned cart emails from the history (by default, this period is set as 60 days). In the General tab, you also select a sender email for abandoned cart reminders and specify the address for sending email copy. Besides, the abandoned cart extension allows admins to set the height and width (in pixels) of the product images used in emails and add the unsubscribe links to email reminders.
In Test Email Configurations, you can enable testing mode to check how the module works on your website. Specify the address of the email recipient and click Send Test Mail button.
All abandoned cart rules are gathered in a grid under Marketing -> Rules. The grid shows each created rule’s ID, name, status (enabled or disabled), as well as the date and time of its creation and modification. Mass actions allow you to delete, disable, and enable the rules in bulk.
When adding a new rule, you need to configure its options in three tabs: Abandoned Cart Rule Information, Scheduled Email, and Rule apply for this condition.
In Abandoned Cart Rule Information, you should create a name for your rule, set its priority, enable/disable the rule, and choose the cancel conditions: New Cart Was Created, Link from Email Clicked, Any Product Went Out of Stock, All Products Went Out of Stock. Then, select store view where you want the rule to be applied, as well as customer groups.
Now, let’s proceed to the settings in the Scheduled Email tab. Here, you can set a schedule for sending abandoned cart emails by selecting an email template and specifying the dispatch time in hours, minutes, and seconds. Also, you decide whether to insert a coupon code in the email and select the rule to apply to the reminder. In Action, you can delete a scheduled email by clicking on the bin icon. Note that coupons are generated automatically.
In the last tab, you can set specific conditions to make your cart abandonment rules more precise or leave this section blank if you want to assign the rule to all products.
As for the blacklisting feature, the Abandoned Cart Email module allows admin users to specify customers’ addresses to which you don’t want to send reminder emails. You can view all blacklisted email addresses and add new ones from the Abandoned Cart Blacklist page under Marketing -> Blacklist. There is also the possibility to import emails to the Blacklist grid.
When you add a new email, you need to specify an email address that should be blacklisted and select appropriate store views.
Now, let’s move to Marketing -> Emails Queue, where you can view the list of all abandoned cart reminders that are to be sent to customers. Every reminder can be edited, canceled, and re-sent from here. As for the columns of the Abandoned Cart Email Queue grid, they are:
- Checkbox;
- ID;
- First Name;
- Last Name;
- Email;
