define('EMAIL_HEADER_IMAGE','includes/templates/'. $template_dir. '/images/email_header.gif');

So i tryed to replace this in email\email_template_checkout.html

<!-- Header Section -->
<div class="header">
<img src="email/header.jpg" alt="logo" />
</div>
-------

in this

<!-- Header Section -->
<div class="header">
<img src="EMAIL_HEADER_IMAGE" alt="logo" /></div>

but it's not working, is email_header_image defined in the admin ?

Has someone a clue ?

:frusty:

Can't believe no one has the same problem !

Did nobody use the email template override ?
our are you'll on vacation !!

Need some help here..... :(

Karimm,
Being on vacation implies that someone actually works here. This is community support that is provided on users' free time. Nobody is required to answer your question. I suggest you consider that next time you get aggravated about a problem.

What you posted will never work because it's syntactically incorrect:

try this:

PHP Code:

---

<!-- Header Section -->
  <div class="header">
<img src="<?php echo EMAIL_HEADER_IMAGE; ?>" alt="logo" /></div>

---

Sorry cablesimple / everybody,

Didn't mean to offent anyone, i'am from holland and it's holiday time over here. was just thinking maybe the're is holiday every where and every one's on vacation, but that's stupid :huh:

I appreciate you help, i have been search the forum for 2 days now and read all the post on this thread. without success.

when i use you last post, this is what the source of the email says

<div class="header">
<img src="http://www.mydomain.com/<?php echo EMAIL_HEADER_IMAGE; ?>" alt="logo" /></div>
</div>

it this because the template is a html file instead of a php file so it isn't been processed by the php engine ? i guest i can't rename it just to email_template_checkout.php, can I ?

Regards,

Oh yeah. I wasn't even paying attention to where you were putting it. Your right, the email templates are not parsed by PHP.

The variable format in these email templates is this:

HTML Code:

---

  <div class="header">
  <img src="$EMAIL_HEADER_IMAGE" alt="logo" />
  </div>

---

I already tryed that.

This is the sourch of the email.

<div class="header">
<img src="http://www.mydomain.com/$EMAIL_HEADER_IMAGE" alt="logo" />
</div>

any ideas ? the rest of the url that should point to the template\image folder doesn't show up.

it's defined in the domain_config file.

define('EMAIL_HEADER_IMAGE','includes/templates/'. $template_dir. '/images/email_header.gif');

thanks

Well the template is right, focus on the define statement or your config file.


So you have that define statement in a file like:
includes/config_sites/www.mydomain.com_config.php

If so then I would start testing my config file to make sure it's being read properly.

yes i have the statement in the file

includes/config_sites/www.mydomain.com_config.php

i also have a few overrides and they jsut work fine.

STORE_OWNER_EMAIL_ADDRESS','[email protected]');
EMAIL_FROM','[email protected]');
define('CONTACT_US_LIST','contact1,contact2,...');

also the domain and site url's are working fine, exept for the email template override

define('EMAIL_HEADER_IMAGE','includes/templates/'. $template_dir. '/images/email_header.gif');


i am lost !

I have installed this on a modified cart and then on fresh zen install. For some reason I cannot get the categories to show either place. I used the admin tool to put the necessary text into the category descriptions but no categories or products will show until I turn off the category filter.

I even took the sql statement from the cat_filter file and ran it against the database and it didn't show results. Is this mysql 5.25 compatible?

and yes I read thru most of the postings in this thread and saw no one mentioning this.

Okay, I have to admit my stupidity. Here it goes:

when putting in the tags to your category descriptions - put in your site names not your template names.

I hope this helps someone else who has such brain farts!
