Hello,

What would be the functions to integrate thumbnail previews in the Emails templates ?
Emails when adding a video, a new album or the Emails Digests.

<?php echo $videoImage;?> maybe ?

Thank you,
Philippe

See my captures in attachments.
Hi there,

Right now i am a bit confused actually, based on codes i checked on my end, it seems that there are no images include on those emails currently and based on your attachment, there images included in it. And from my understanding, you need to know what codes that show those images.

Maybe i have missunderstand them, can you provide us with more details so that we can better understand your requirement.

Please advice.

EDITED

Hi there,

I am really sorry but unfortunately we cannot accommodate your request currently as it is beyond our support scope's policy as outlined in https://stackideas.com/support . You will need to do some modifications on some files in order to fetched them(different part for videos/albums/email digest). By the way, you can refer this files .../administrator/components/com_easysocial/includes/video/video.php for videos thumbnails and .../administrator/components/com_easysocial/tables/photo.php for photos.

Having said that, if you require us to perform the customization for you, you can always request for a quote from us at https://crm.stackideas.com and select "Customizations" . Our sales person would be glad to send you a quote for the customizations that you have requested.

Thanks for your understanding.

Hello Warith,

I understand that you can not help me too much.

I will do some tests first.

How can I force sending digest emails (Daily), without having to wait for the next day ?
And make believe that we are already the next day for example.

To try things would be simpler.

Thank you,
Philippe

Hi there,

Unfortunately, it is not possible to achieve this currently. Thanks for your understanding as it will be based on time interval stored on the Database but you can refer them here .../administrator/components/com_easysocial/includes/cluster/cluster.php under subscribe() functions.

Thanks for your understanding.

Hello Warith,

After long hours of researching how to insert thumbnails into Emails Digest, I ended up finding !!

In /media/com_easysocial/apps/group/photos/photos.php
=> Delete // from lines 172 and 173

// $this->set('photos', $photos);
// $item->preview = parent::display('themes:/site/emails/subscriptions/digest.photos');

Then, in /components/com_easysocial/themes/wireframe/emails/subscriptions/digest.clusters.php
Just insert the following code :

<?php echo $post->preview; ?>

But why did you write lines 172 and 173, and disable them with this // ?
The digest.photos.php file exists, as much use it to insert previews photos into Digest Emails, no ?


Thank you,
Philippe

Hi there,

It is mainly because email digest should not shown any content in it and that why we comment them out. For emails digest, it should shown links only and not content in it as you can see here https://screencast.com/t/9JFvDNaYg.

By the way, good job on finding them. Do not forget to do full backup on your changes and replace them if you have done any update to it latest version.

Thanks for your understanding.

Hello,

I do not understand. The digest.photos.php file is no longer present in EasySocial.
/components/com_easysocial/themes/wireframe/emails/subscriptions/digest.photos.php
I use it to have previews photos in digest emails

Hi there,

It is removed from our components as it is not being used currently Have you tried to upload them on your template override path? Or you required that files? If yes, i have uploaded them for you.

Thanks for your understanding.
