How to Add Tracking Number To Prestashop Email Template

in  
Many assumed the tracking numbers were viewable in the prestashop front office for the customer in their account, but have realized that this is not the case. The "In Transit" e-mail that is sent to the customer upon inputting the tracking number in the BO only provides a link to a website (example for those who use USPS, so the link is http://www.usps.com as that is where the customer will track their package). This link would only be helpful if the tracking number that I input for individual customers is included in the same e-mail. At the very least, the number should be viewable somewhere in the customers' account, but it is not.

So how can we  Add Tracking Number To Prestashop Email Template ?

1. Don't forget to backup your prestashop file first
2. You need to edit the admin/tabs/AdminOrders.php file, inside is a function called postProcess
3. Find following code. Add the bold code inside it.
$templateVars = array(
    '{followup}' => str_replace('@', $order->shipping_number, $carrier->url),
    '{firstname}' => $customer->firstname,
    '{lastname}' => $customer->lastname,
    '{shipping_number}' => $shipping_number,
    '{id_order}' => (int)($order->id)
);
4. in your mail template for english it is in /mail/en/ named in_transit.html and in_transit.txt, add {shipping_number} where ever you want the tracking number to appear. 

For latest version of prestashop (1.5 and above), you need to find the code in the controllers/admin/AdminOrdersController. Look for the following code
$order->shipping_number)$templateVars = array('{followup}' => str_replace('@', $order->shipping_number, $carrier->url));
change it to :
if ($history->id_order_state == Configuration::get('PS_OS_SHIPPING') && $order->shipping_number)$templateVars = array('{followup}' => str_replace('@', $order->shipping_number, $carrier->url),
'{shipping_number}' => $order->shipping_number
);
