Attribute File Upload

[timestands]

Ok once again if there is a thread elsewhere for this please let me know. I am new at this.

I sell items that can be customized by the customer. I would like them to be able to upload their pics at the end of checkout instead of having to email me them. I know this can be done but have not figuered it out.

please help and in simple terms.

thanks
jessica

Go to Catalog - > Option Name Controller.

Then in there Option name...put whatever you want to like "Upload your own image" and in the option type, but file.

Easy stuff, just have to know where to look for it.

The file is managed internally ... whether it reads text or billybob ... it works find ...

Im interested in having the file accessed in the admin area as well. The info for doing this on oscommerce isn't applicable here and I haven't been able to find a solution on my own.

When viewing the orders, the attributes including the uploaded file/image are listed. It would be nice to be able to click on the file name to see the file, in my case its just an image. Otherwise, there is no way to view the image from the zen cart admin.

Also noticed that the filename is changed during this current process. If image.jpg is uploaded, its name is displayed as 1. image.jpg (yes, there is a space there). However, the file in the uploads directory is just named 1.jpg.

Can anyone help in making the image name in the orders area a clickable link?
