[SOLVED] Individual Reg Mails depending on profiletype

Hello,

I tried to customize the emails which are sent to user after registration.

The Original in de-de language looks like

'YOUR_REGISTRATION_IS_PENDING_APPROVAL_MESSAGE' => "Hallo [NAME],\r\nDanke für die Registrierung. Wir haben\r\ndie Registrieranfrage ...",

...and so on


I'd like to change "Name" to cb fields depending on profiletype.
A-Users should receive email with Hello "cb_vorname" "cb_nachname" (firstname, lastname)
F-Users should receive email with Hello "cb_unternehmen" (company name)


So I tried it with substitutions in the way I use them normally:

'YOUR_REGISTRATION_IS_PENDING_APPROVAL_MESSAGE' => "Hallo [cb:if cb_profiletype="a-profil"][cb:userfield field="cb_vorname" /] [cb:userfield field="cb_nachname" /][/cb:if][cb:if cb_profiletype="f-profil"][cb:userfield field="cb_unternehmen" /][/cb:if],\r\nDanke für die Registrierung. ...",

...and so on


After saving language file I receive an sitewide 500 internal Server error.


Where's my mistake? :whistle:

Thanks in forward and merry x-mas

Best,

IF substitutions are the way to go, but you have PHP errors in your string. You're using " in your language string, but the string variable is encased in ". You need to be using an IDE like Netbeans or PHPStorm so you can see PHP errors. Replace the " surrounding the string with ', but if you're also using ' you'll need to escape either " or ' usages as needed with a backslash.

thanks for your reply.

I replaced " with '. Now it looks like:

'YOUR_REGISTRATION_IS_PENDING_APPROVAL_MESSAGE' => 'Hallo [cb:if cb_profiletype=\'a-profil\'][cb:userfield field=\'cb_vorname\' /] [cb:userfield field=\'cb_nachname\' /][/cb:if][cb:if cb_profiletype=\'f-profil\'][cb:userfield field=\'cb_unternehmen\' /][/cb:if],<br><br>\r\nDanke für die Registrierung.

There is no more error shown, but in E-Mail the field values for name / company name aren't shown. just a blank space.


with [cb:if cb_profiletype='a-profil' ... or [cb:if cb_profiletype="a-profil" ...
the same. No error, but no name in emails.


Where's my mistake?

You only needed to replace the PHP " usages surrounding your string. The substitutions needed to remain as is as we don't scan for ' in our substitution parsing so nothing will substitute with your above usage. Example as follows based off your original string.

FROM: TO:
Again, you won't have any of these issues with a proper IDE as it'd error that string. Please see the below for further PHP syntax basics.

thanks, I've tried and also copied your code, but there there's only a blank space shown in emails.

when the string and substitutions are correct, where else could be the issue?

Either the fields your substituting have no value, the field names are wrong, or the value you're IF checking against could be wrong. I've no idea your field setup. The fields also need to be accessible to the user. If they're on a tab the users usergroup can't access then they will not be able to see the substituted value. You can substitute in raw values using [FIELD_NAME] which will ignore the access checks.
