uploadfile script image sent with an email

[Inkies]

Hello ALL
I’m not expert at this but I have found a way for my customer to upload a image file to me after they have paid.
I copied and pasted the script from index.htm to my catalog/includes/languages/english/html_includes/ define_checkout_success.php
Saved the files sendpic and loader.gif to both the root dir and the catalog/includes/languages/english/html_includes

I tryed to insert the code but i couldn't get the php to show. you can downlond the scripts at
php-scripts-free.com/index.php?action=freescripts&script=AndyFileUploader

Installation-Guide:

It's very easy to install AndyFileUploader. Please keep to the steps as descriped:

1. Please open the file sendpic.php with a text-editor and change '[email protected]'
at top of the file to your e-mail-adress.

The variable $folder is filled in with 'files'. If you wish to save the pics in another folder,
you'll have to change 'files' with the name of this folder. Please use a subfolder of the folder
where you run AndyFileUploader.

Nothing more needs to be changed in this file.

2. The index.htm file contains the basic html- and javascript-code. When a user submits the form,
this code calls the file sendpic.php, so both files need to be in the same folder. But
you can rename the file index.htm or just copy the code into another html-file without any problems.

3. Please open your preferred ftp-programm and upload both files onto your server. Please
use ASCII-mode for the files "index.htm" (or another html-file where you have copied the code of AndyFileUploader into) and
the file sendpic.php. Please upload the file 'loader.gif' into the same folder, using Binary-Mode (you can, of course, later
choose another gif-file of your choise, but please name it the same (loader.gif)..

4. Please create a subfolder 'files'. Please change the permissions for this
subfolder to 0777 (owner-others-world: read-write-execute)

That was it. Your visitors should be able to send you files (jpg- and gif-files) now (size limited to about 200 KB):

The files you visitors upload will be saved in the folder and sent to you via e-mail. Additionally, a thumb
of the pics will be saved as well in the folder and shown to your visitor after uploading the file.

thank you - I came looking for just this type of mod! I have a client with an embroidery site that needs to have clients upload images of their logos, etc.

So thank you for spreading the information.

The post above refers SPECIFICALLY to having customers upload things AFTER purchase.

If you want your customers to upload images AS PART OF their purchase, just set up a FILE attribute to your product, and they can do it while they add the product to their cart. The functionality is already built in.

I can set it up so that customers can upload a file as part of their purchase? That would be the ideal solution, especially if the files weren't limited to just images in case they needed to upload a .zip file with more than one image in it.
Could you please explain a bit further please?

thank you,

Betty

FAQ on setting up attributes: https://www.zen-cart.com/tutorials/index.php?article=57

A FILE attribute is an upload, and will appear with a "Browse ..." button on the same page where the customer does their add-to-cart.

After the customer has placed their order, the files themselves will be numbered according to the order number, and stored in the /images/uploads folder. The store owner will see the list of uploaded files in the admin order details.

you but with my one the image is sent you your inbox (Microsoft outlook in my case) with there email address and after they have paid so no spam images. I like the idea of being able to send zip file as mine only allows 1 image to be sent.
