File attachements notes and documentation
File attachments support :
If you wish to add file attachments to email notifications, you can use the notify_user function and pass it an "attachments" key, with $params['attachments']
:
$attachments[] = array(
'content' => $file_content, // File content
//'filepath' => $file_content, // Alternate file path for file content retrieval
'filename' => $file_content, // Attachment file name
'mimetype' => $file_content, // MIME type of attachment
);
Note that $attachments
is an array, so you can pass several files at once, each with a custom filename and MIME type.
Warning: don't use 'filepath' setting on a production site (not functional yet)
