There is also the "time limited" generator which generates serials with an expiration date. In both cases, it generate a end date that the plugin "attach serial" can access and display in the final image. Otherwise, there is no actual setting in the "attach serial" plugin to perform an arithmetic operation. Regards, --- Jerome - Obsidev.com HikaMarket & HikaSerial developer / HikaShop core dev team.

I want to display the expiry date for generated image coupon using attach to email. Something like this in Generated Text. {order_product.order_product_expiry} I don't know the code for expiry date. Or the code for order date + 365 days. The Gift Certificate expires 1 year after purchase, so I want to put a message on the generated image with the expiry date. It would be unique per order, example "This Gift certificate expires on 2015-01-30" Also the QR code should be a URL which adds the Coupon Code to the order, how do I do that? something like {order_product.order_product_serial} Last edit: 11 years 2 months ago by [terryt](/forum/user/31051-terryt "View terryt's Profile").

But if you do use "Serial..." then you're already in the "serial" object so you do not need to specify it in the text field.
