Does anyone have suggestions for the Pay Later instructions in regards to an online form vs. what gets emailed? For example, if I put in the registration from online "Please mail your payment to 555 Street. Complete instructions will be emailed to you." But in the registration confirmation I'd like to change the instructions up a little bit (say omit the will be emailed to you part).

I considered that I could

A) add another field in the registration set up form. But I'm a little unsure the best path to take for that, I know how to edit the template file, but getting an editable field that saves to the database I am less confident with.

B) In the pay later instructions field add an if statement. If the form is online show this. If the form is emailed show this. But don't think I can do this in the current set up, I don't think it accepts smarty tags in the instructions fields.

Does any one have any suggestions on how to implement either of these or something else they have found successful?

I'm with ya, I have that for the contribution receipts as a work around. But for events, as there tends to be random different caveats for each event, I'd like to be able to customize the pay later instructions a little more.
