Product File as attachment in order email

Hi

I have added a file to a product. Under System -> Configuration -> Email tab, I have set the Embed attachments to Yes. However when the Order Confirmation email is sent, the file is included as a link rather than an attachment. Is there another setting I am missing

Thanks

Patrick

Hi,

There is no option for that currently but we may think about it in a future version.

HI Eliot

I am not sure what you mean.

When I add a product, I am also able to attach a file to the product.

There is a setting in System -> Configuration -> Email tab called Embed attachments



When an order is placed and paid for then in the order confirmation email that is sent to the customer, a link to the file added to the product.

However, reading the help files it says the following:

Embed Attachments : Should HikaShop embed your attachments inside the emails? If not, HikaShop will add a list of attachments with a link to your website in order to download it.
If you disable this option, the send process will be much faster as HikaShop won't send the attachment but a simple link.

I have set the embed attachment to Yes but it still creates a link to the file rather than embedding it in the email.

thanks

Patrick

Hi Nicolas

Sorry if I was not clear about my question. I understand that the File option in product is to add attachment to email. However, when I set the embed attachment setting to yes, the file (not the product) is showing in the email as a link rather than an attachment.

I would like to know how to make the file an attachment in the email and not a link. The "eazfix User Guide" is a pdf document.

Thanks

Patrick

OK

Thanks, but could you tell me what the embed attachments in system -> configuration - email tab is used for?
