Magento – Showing payment details on any email template

email-templatesmagento-1

I have made a test putting the var {{var payment_html}} inside the email template order_update.html however when Magento sends an email using this template, any payment information is printed on the box "Payment Details". After that, I searched about it and I found out on this link that some variables don't make effect for some templates. I would like to know if is possible to show off the payment details on the order update email template.

Does anybody have idea about how to do that?

Var $payment_html is injected in email variables in Mage_Sales_Model_Order::sendNewOrderEmail() and not available for update emails. Since exact block wich is rendered depends on payment method you will need to get that HTML using same way as in Mage_Sales_Model_Order::sendNewOrderEmail(). You can either extend and overwrite Mage_Sales_Model_Order::sendNewOrderEmail() or create your own block and reference it in the email template.

{{block type="your/block_type"}}

The only problem is how to pass order to your block. I am not sure if var order will work in this context.

It's probably your database entries.

Take a look at core_config_data:

SELECT `value` FROM `core_config_data` WHERE `path` = 'snh/emailsettings/headerfnt';

If it does return something, then it'd be a scope problem then. Check if scope and scope_id checks out (global, website, store level?). Safest way to go is default and 0, respectively.

If it does not return anything, then you need to insert something for this. You obviously probably know now what to insert, right?

The logo_url variable is only available to the email template and not to the cms block.

What you could do is: Create a custom variable under System->Custom Variables called logo_url and then include: {{customVar code="logo_url"}} in your block.

In addition you could set:

{{media url="email/logo/"}}{{config path="design/email/logo"}}

if you have uploaded a logo.

{{skin url="images/logo_email.gif"}}

if you are using the skin directories.
