2.1 Feature Request: Tool to generate mail merge tokens
February 25, 2008, 07:28:06 am
I'd like to see a mail merge token tool be included in the civimail & message template for the 2.1 release.  As it stands now, the user has to leave the site to draw from a list of token values off of the wiki.  It would be extremely helpful to offer the user an ability to draw from a drop down menu to generate a list of appropriate tokens. The tokens in the drop down menu could be grouped by function e.g. "action tokens", "contact tokens", etc.  When the "action token" is selected, the user can select the field value and a filed token is generated.  The user can either copy and insert the token into the body of the message.

This feature is already scheduled for 2.1 (http://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-2155). :-) Thanks for your input, we'll probably use it when planning implementation.

Thx,
