Works great! Thanks Jon.

Ive tried it in 4.1.9 and it works great but puts the image under tthe product description. I would like to know what code is needed to resize the thumbnails, as not all my thumbnails are the same size, and makes the invoice huge.

Just replace the image_x and image_y values. I use image_x="50" image_y="50". If your images are 'HUGE' this means that your normal product images are not well optimized. Maybe you should give that some attention.

Does this work in 4.3?
Thanks

None of these seemed to work for me in 4.3 so decided to fiddle about with and see if I can get it going.

It would appear to me that the current code is for images that are held in the database, I may be wrong.

Also when you look at the code from the 'sent' email, it appears that it is not sending the complete url for the site.

Here is what I did, it may be clumsy, my apologies.

in mail/html/send2friend.tpl
added the following line above {$product.descr}<br />

{include file="stf_product_thumbnail.tpl" productid=$product.productid product=$product.product}</a>

Then I made a copy of

skin1/product_thumbnail.tpl

and called it

stf_product_thumbnail.tpl

then on the line that reads

image.php?type={$type|default:"T"}&amp;id={$produc tid}

I changed it to

http:\\www.your-url.eu\your-dir\image.php?type={$type|default:"T"}&amp;id={$pr oductid}

and it seems to work.

* I just previewd this message and the editor seems to have put an odd space the word 'productid' - there shouldn't be a space *

Well guess what,

Ive tried all these and nothing works!!

You could go to my site:
http://www.serpro.eu/shop1

click on a product and its full details and then send yourself a 'send to friend' and see what happens.

I send them to myself all the time as customers want product details by email when they call for a quote.

Tried all these too and no success
4.2.3

Having upgraded to 4.4 needed to make it work for that version.

None of our images are held in the database, they are all files.

Here is what I did.

in skin/common_files/mail/html/send2friend.tpl
added the following line above {$product.descr}<br />

{include file="stf_product_thumbnail.tpl" productid=$product.productid product=$product.product}</a>

Then in skin/common_files/ created a file called

stf_product_thumbnail.tpl

containing;

{*
$Id: stf_product_thumbnail.tpl,v 1.0 2011/06/29 08:57:58 joy Exp $vim: set ts=2 sw=2 sts=2 et:
*}
{strip}
<img src="{$http_location}/image.php?id={$productid}" width="150">
{/strip}

---------------------
Have just done this on 4.5 and it works perfectly for me. You can test it on the site.

I used this http://www.websitecm.com/articles/x-cart-product-images-on-x-cart-invoices-and-emails/

I'm trying to do this on my 4.3 site and I get the following error when I switch an order to Processed. It worked fine on my test site.

This is in the spot where the image should be

Warning: require_once(/init.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/littlepu/public_html/admin/auth.php on line 44

Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required '/init.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/littlepu/public_html/admin/auth.php on line 44
