CiviCRM Community Forums (archive)

I am having issues with a custom token.

1) In system settings --> directory I pointed to my civicrmHooks.php directory
2) The token description appears in the modal pop window and is being added to the content (email in this instance)
3) Mail is sent but the token is replaced with null (or not populated)

The code I have used is from colemanw blog post - and the token I am implementing is a simple today's date (That should really be integrated into the codebase)
<?php

 // function to add today's date custom token

function wordpress_civicrm_tokens(&$tokens) {
  $tokens['date'] = array(
    'date.date_short' => 'Today\'s Date: mm/dd/yyyy',
    'date.date_med' => 'Today\'s Date: Mon d yyyy',
    'date.date_long' => 'Today\'s Date: Month dth, yyyy',
  );
}

function wordpress_civicrm_tokenValues(&$values, $cids, $job = null, $tokens = array(), $context = null) {
  // Date tokens
  if (!empty($tokens['date'])) {
    $date = array(
      'date.date_short' => date('m/d/Y'),
      'date.date_med' => date('M j Y'),
      'date.date_long' => date('F jS, Y'),
    );
    foreach ($cids as $cid) {
      $values[$cid] = empty($values[$cid]) ? $date : $values[$cid] + $date;
    }
  }
}
?>
Anyone has any insights why this does not work as expected?

Thank you!

I can confirm that after upgrade this has been fixed
