I want to send a slightly different Message depending on the new participant status when changing the participation in the backend.

Is there a way to find the participation status in Message Template: "Edit Events - Registration Confirmation and Receipt (off-line)" ?

I am trying to get the participation status in this Message Template. I tried quite a lot, among others:
{$event.participant_status_id}{$event.participant_status}{$participant_status}{$event.status_id}{$event.status}{$event.participant_id}

How can I get the participation status or at least the participation id from within this template? (If I have that I can get the status with the API if I'm right, because the participation would have been stored in the DB before this message is send)

Yeah, is there any way to show smarty debug info on Mail Templates?

it is {$participantID}, argh...

This is what I did.
Add {debug} to the Mail Template.
I did that before but was confused it did not show anything, but...
It adds javascript to the Resulting email trying to create the debug popup, which does not work in the email.

So you have to View Source then, and try to figure out the HTML in there.
