Joomla 2.5 | virtuemart 2.014

The email works finne but when i receby the email as a recommendation from a user the image do not show and theres no links back to the product.

If it is a recommendation it should have a link back to the product for a direct access.

Anyone that wont's to help can test in the link below and send a email recommendation to it self and see the email
http://www.mobiliariocomluz.pt/mobiliario-de-interior/cadeiras-interior/barbarella_details

And this is the code from virtuemart to the email that is send, maybe something is missing in the image code

Code Select

<?php

defined('_JEXEC') or die('');

You can add the following code just below link 58

Code Select

 <a href="<?php echo $this->product->link ;?>"><?php echo $this->product->product_name; ?></a>
The new code would look something like this.

Code Select

								<?php echo JText::sprintf('COM_VIRTUEMART_RECOMMEND_MAIL_MSG', $this->product->product_name,   $this->comment); ?>
								<br><br><a href="<?php echo $this->product->link ;?>"><?php echo $this->product->product_name; ?></a>

This will get the product name right after the message and then the product link too.

Thanks

Hi!
Thanks! your script did work in getting the product name as a link, but the link has no url to take you to so the link is empty. So whats missing in your code? And also, how do we include the product picture and perhaps description? But picture most of all? Thanks!

Nevermind. Solved it! Use this code instead! Also includes Sku# and Product description.

 
Product SKU: <?php echo$this->product->product_sku ?>

Product short description: <?php echo $this->product->product_s_desc ?>

Link: <a href="<?php echo juri::root()?>index.php?component&option=com_virtuemart&view=productdetails&virtuemart_product_id=
<?php echo $this->product->virtuemart_product_id ?>" title="<?php echo$this->product->product_name ?>"><?php echo$this->product->product_name ?></a>
