image not showing in email template

[kennyjack]

Hi 

 

 

I have make changes on the email template by adding an image

below is the code

 

<img src="{$img_ps_dir}/myimage.jpg" />

I have double comfirm that myimage.jpg is inside the correct path. but still now showing the image in email. 

 

I have search whole day on why image not showing in email template. is because of the cdi:swift code.

how can i know my cdi:swift code of myimage.jpg? 

or is there another way to do?

 

Thanks & Regards

Kenny

Hi,

You can try using: {shop_url}. Something like:
<img src="{shop_url}/img//myimage.jpg" />

Or even you can add your own variables to Mails, please, see this link:

Hi PrestaNitro,

 

Let said myimage.jpg is inside my img folder and the myimage.jpg path is www.mydomain.com/img/myimage.jpg

 

$template_vars['{shop_url}'] = Context::getContext()->link->getPageLink('index', true, Context::getContext()->language->id);

 

how can i create the template_vars where myimage.jpg is in img folder. I have little knowledge on pretashop. could you help me?

 

Thanks & regards

Kenny

Hi,

 

The link above shows many methods to get the shop URL in PHP:

Hi PrestaNitro,

 

It seem like by putting path to retrieve image and showing on email template <img src="{shop_url}/img/myimage.jpg" /> does not work.

 

email template does not accept the path to show image. it must use cdi:swift code to display. but i still no idea how can i get cdi:swift code of myimage.jpg

Since {shop_url} is not a valid tag to access "img" folder, the idea was to create your own mail template var, something like:

$template_vars['{my_img_folder}'] = $smarty->tpl_vars['img_ps_dir']->value;

And then use in your email the new template var:

<img src="{my_img_folder}/myimage.jpg" />
