admin_send_email.txt not showing {USERNAME}

[cancertalk]

Hello People. I have edited the template admin_send_email.txt to read the following

Code: Select all

Hi {USERNAME}
{MESSAGE}

{EMAIL_SIG}

However, when the e-mail goes out, there is no "username" in the e-mail. The message is present, and so is the signature, but no username.

Any ideas why?

You can't just add vars to the email template; it needs to know what those vars refer to. I haven't tested this but try adding the var to /includes/acp_email.php around line 205.

Code: Select all

				$template_data = array(
					'USERNAME'	=> $row['username'],
					'CONTACT_EMAIL' => phpbb_get_board_contact($config, $phpEx),
					'MESSAGE'		=> html_entity_decode($message, ENT_COMPAT),
				);

Sorry, I thought that {USERNAME} was a variable in the system, like {MESSAGE} and {EMAIL_SIG}

No such thing. Those are template variables. They are created by each script as they need them.
