drupal username as civicrm field?
October 08, 2009, 04:29:41 pm
I would like to include drupal usernames in civicrm mailings since it is via drupal that members login to the site.  I assume the best way to do this is with a token value from a custom field.  However, how do I create this field?  I assume that it is a 'view only' field with a php code that shows the drupal username for the corresponding record.  Has anyone done this?  Or, is there another way to go about this?

Thanks,
Maria

i would do this using a token hook. Check:

Is this still the way of solving it with the latest CiviCRM release, i.e. version 3.1?

Thanks,

Mikael
