My problem right now is when I try to test the checkout system - it says "the email is already in use". I had this problem on my other site and corrected it by using "no login" - I have attached a screenshot of the new setup.

Hi,

For your HikaShop related questions ; please use the HikaShop section of that forum.
I am just providing support for my components and in this case, it is HikaSerial.

Thanks to the plugin "attach serial" you can generate very similar kind of image ; you just need to configure it and provide the right "template".
[ www.hikashop.com/support/documentation/1...ns-attachserial.html](https://www.hikashop.com/support/documentation/152-hikaserial-plugins-attachserial.html)

Few elements would be problematic for what I can see, like the credit card or the barcode with a rotation (except if it's an hard-coded barcode directly in the template image).

Regards,

Thank you - I followed the instructions to make the sample "Template Ticket" and a screenshot of setup is below. Also the results of an order - I do not see the "ticket.png" fill attached.

Hi,

Depending how that order notification email is sent, the image might not be included correctly.

After that, you can have issues regarding to the email system which is used by Joomla ; that's why there is few settings in the "attach serial" plugin (in the Joomla plugin manager part) to tweak how the image is included.

The last possibility is a fix we made few weeks ago and which will be include in the next build.
In the plugin "plugins/hikaserial/attachserial/attachserial.php", you need to replace Code:

$img = $this-&gt;initializeImage($file_path, $extension)

By Code:

$file_path = JPath::clean($file_path); $img = $this-&gt;initializeImage($file_path, $extension);

And it will avoid an issue with some versions of PHP GD.
