Hi,

Apparently the token {contact.state_province_name} is not working when is included in message templates. The text "{contact.state_province_name}" is shown and not the proper Province/State Name.
This token works only for Mailing Labels, but we need the print PDF or send email with the full Province Name

Only the token {contact.state_province} is working showing the abbreviation everywhere.
Sadly this is a very "american way" to display states, but I would say that in the rest of the world (at least SouthAmerica and mostly Europa) the full province name is needed

Any clue if it's a bug, a new feature or there is a way make this work (maybe by hooks)?

Tx in advance
 
 

I share the code if it's useful to somebody
I added two tokens:

{contact.province}: prints the State / Province full name (as in {contact.state_province_name}). I didn't use the same name in case this brings any conflict with the existing one

{contact.complete_address}: prints the full contact's address with the same format set in the label address customization



function yourmodulename_civicrm_tokens( &$tokens ) {
$tokens['contact'] = array('contact.province' => 'Province', 'contact.complete_address' => 'Complete Address' );
}


function yourmodulename_civicrm_tokenValues( &$values, &$contactIDs ) {
require_once 'api/v2/Contact.php';
require_once 'CRM/Utils/Address.php';
foreach($contactIDs as $id){
$params = array('contact_id'=>$id);
$contact = civicrm_contact_get($params);
$values[$id]['contact.complete_address'] = nl2br(CRM_Utils_Address::format($contact[$id]));
$values[$id]['contact.province'] = $contact[$id]["state_province_name"];
}
}
Cheers!
