Author Topic: Including "Dear firstName LastName" on event reciept (Read 860 times)

I am trying to modify the event registration receipt so that it starts out "Dear John Doe, "

I have started modifying the template file at /components/com_civicrm/civicrm/templates/CRM/Event/Form/Registration/ReceiptMessage.tpl

But how do I pull in the first and last name? It is already part of the "To:" in the email message.

Thanks,
Sarah

enable smartyDebug: http://wiki.civicrm.org/confluence/display/CRMDOC21/Debug+Tools

and see if we expose first/last name to the template (i dont think we do)

if you do need it, you can either get it from the display name, or implement a hook and expose it to the template

Is the template ReceiptMessage.tpl also used for a web screen? I am trying to figure out which URL to add the smarty parameter to, as I thought that template is only used for emails.

all the smarty variables that get exposed to the web also get exposed to the mail message. They share the same template instance
