CiviCRM Community Forums (archive)

Using the code from http://wiki.civicrm.org/confluence/display/CRMDOC/Customized+%28and+Custom%29+Tokens I've been able to get the custom token for the Drupal username to work in CiviMail, but not in CiviMember. The custom token appears on the list of available tokens for both CiviMail and CiviMember, but it doesn't output anything in the CiviMember scheduled reminder. In CiviMail, it works fine.

Membership records were imported from their old site and Drupal usernames were automatically generated in the import process; insofar as the usernames are system-generated, it's unlikely that members will remember them.

Logging into the site is an essential part of the renewal process, so both the (username.drupal} (custom token) and {membership.end_date} are really necessary for successful renewals - any idea why the referenced module code wouldn't work in CiviMember? Any ideas greatly appreciated… thanks!

Thanks, Joanne - that's what I thought, too; it would alleviate the issue.

I don't know if it's a CiviMember thing or not - I haven't changed anything in Drupal. But the login page specifies the username only and entering the email address doesn't work - I've tried it twice again just now. Very strange…

Thanks!

Thanks, Joanne - that's a good idea. The Email registration module does the trick nicely!

A big "Duh" over here - that's what happens when you bang your head against the wall for too long. Thank you for the fresh perspective and… onwards!
