Hi
here a step by step answer locate in the capture screen for help other users on the forum .
For test hikaserial attach image ( coupon ticket ) when you test this functionnalities using joomla and hikashop . since you use local server you can't use real bank account and i don't know fake bank account to test for have return message after payment . so you ll have to set manually the return information that the bank server should do to change state payment from created to confirm when payment is effective . So after buyer receive a mail without attachment even if you configure hikaserial attachment ( ticket) , the first mail he ll receive ll not contain the attachment ( ticket) you have to manually notify/send him another mail that ll contain the attachment . after buyer has finieshed the process of buying then you ll have to go to to menu -> component -> hikashop -> orders and the you ll see a table of all orders with the last order on top showing in column "order status" the value "created" .
When you change the order status by select another item and select confirmed ; it is strange but yes a modal windows ll open . Another strange behaviour is that in this modal windos when change chekbox from "no" to "yes" without quit the modal window ; a new html content that can be edit ll be appear beneath . The content is the second mail that the buyer ll receive with attachment this time when you ll press OK button . It is a strange because the size of the modal is limited and use iframe so all the content can not be view at once (use firebug to change width height ) : so you ll have to use scroll bar to know what you do ( edit ) so not very friendly but it work . In the screen capture here i show how it look like ( not hte bottom that contain the text version of your email ) but it is a composite capture screen , you ll never see all this content at once eve nsuing capture screen tool .
i don't compare test status for hikaserial serial_data and status for hikashop orders . perhaps this is cover buy hikashop hikaserial documentation
i hope this ll be usefull and can complete the hikashop tutorial .
the requirement are
BackEnd
--configure smtp in joomla for receive mail
--test email using an joomla extension for example ALF contact
--select for payment bank transfert .
--configure hikaserial for create serial_data
---configure product to have attachement
FrontEnd
---buy a product that you know it has attachment and serial_data
