Does anybody know how to add the CatalogID to the email sent to the supplier/merchant? VP-ASP seems to only display the title and description. I've tried editing tmp_oitems.txt but it doesn't seem to do anything.

Can anybody help?

I think it's due to the field that's being used in the email template.

if you use
[ADD_OITEMSTEMPLATE]

instead of

[ADD_OITEMS]

in your email template then it'll use that template file for the order items instead of the generic/standard default.

Thanks! I changed [ADD_OITMES] to [ADD_OITEMSTEMPLATE] and it displays the category ID but it seemed to interfere with the html formatting. Here is what I have in oitems.txt:

Description: [itemname]
Quantity: [numitems]
Unit Price: [formatcurrency unitprice]
Total: [add_oitemtotal]
Delivery Address: [add_oitemdelivery]
ID: [catalogID]

The email outputs exaclty the following:

Description: Scallop Fry<br>Deep Fried Scallop on SkewerQuantity: 5Unit Price:
$7.00Total: $35.00Delivery Address: ID: 223

I really appreciate your help,
Mori

just add <br> to the beginning of each line to force newlines.

<br> should automatically get translated into an email newline character for emails.

ie:
Description: [itemname]
<br>Quantity: [numitems]
<br>Unit Price: [formatcurrency unitprice]
<br>Total: [add_oitemtotal]
$<br>Delivery Address: [add_oitemdelivery]
<br>ID: [catalogID]

It looks like [catalogid] needs to be called through tmp_oitems.txt which goes beserk when i try to modify it.

:(

same here when I replace [ADD_OITMES] with [ADD_OITEMSTEMPLATE] for some reason the email comes in with the written html code ie <html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<table border="1" cellspacing="0" width="
etc..

Hi,

The issue can be caused if the "xoitemstemplate" field in Set-Up has been set up to use a text file. VP-ASP will check if the file type is "txt" and if it is, it will change it to use text instead of HTML regardless of what you have set the system to use. If you change the xoitemstemplate to use a HTM file, it should resolve your issue.

Thank you

Regards,
Michael
