CiviCRM Community Forums (archive)

Hi,

Now you can add one attachment to a mailing. I've reused the existing file and file entity features of civicrm.

Still have one problem to solve: can't retrieve the "real" toto.doc name, only the name of the file as stored, with a MD5 appened to the name.

Couldn't find it in the BAOs or DAOs provided. Any help greatly appreciated.

How to send you the modification ? svn diff as an attachment to an issue ?

Couldn't "simply" suppress the 33 last characters, as some attachments have one or several extensions (.blah.unknown). Might just be that I misunderstood something.

For now on, the attachment name is ugly...

And an html msg with no attachment gets delivered as

<p>Hi (the text that follows comes from Token = contact.first_name which is Peter and then the token = contact.last_name which is Davis<br />
<br />
so what tokens do is pull the information from that persons record and puts them in the email, so when sending to hundreds of people it can personalise the email, and include their contact details so they can check if they are correct.<br />
<br />
And yes the attachments seems to fail - have raised on forum.</p>

So again, keen to know if I am missing some settings. cheers

Thanks Lobo - really appreciate this.
