Author Topic: Add billing address + custom contribution fields to offline membership receipt (Read 1095 times)

I would like to add the billing address and some custom contribution fields to the offline membership receipt. The billing address is already in the template but only set if $form->_mode is set.

I am trying to inject this info in the postProcess hook (if $formName == 'CRM_Member_Form_Membership') at the moment.

I have changed the smarty template for the message to include html and placeholder tokens for these.

As far as I can tell the flow goes through CRM/Member/Form/Membership.php calling emailReceipt, which calls CRM_Core_BAO_MessageTemplates::sendTemplate.

It looks from that like the only other place I can use is the hook tokenValues. However by the time I get there I will lose the custom data I have access to in the postProcess hook - unless I store the data in a global variable perhaps?

Any suggestions?

Or slightly better than a global you can stash in a singleton function e.g

my_civicrmPostProcess($form){
if blah blah
my_singleton($valueToStash);
}

my_singleton($value){
static $stashedVar;
if(empty($value){
return $stashedVar;
else{
$stashedVar = $value;
}
}

Eileen,

Thanks, that is an improvement.

I'm just getting back to this and found another more serious problem. The tokens hook is called before postProcess so that don't have time to save my custom data in a singleton function or global variable. Does this sound like something that should be fixed?
