I know in the latest version that admin emails do contain the custom field information captured in the form but I want to know is if I can place the custom field into any part of the email I send out?

I have a customer who wants to send a tax receipt for events registration and they'd like to have 2 custom fields embedded in the tax receipt email so it looks printable.

Can this be done?

Thanks

You can place individual custom fields in the USER emails, but not the admin email. However, we're days away from the 2.7 release which gives the ability to completely customize the admin notification email also, so you'll be able to do that very soon :)

Hi:

My question is on a related topic, hope it is okay to post here. I often send emails to my list for an upcoming event and this email tends to be similar each time.

Up until now, there has been no way to save these emails so I've had to reconstruct them each time or save them outside of Joomla and then paste them in each time I need them. Also, if I'm working on an email for a registered list, there has been no way to save a draft of the email and then go back to complete it and send it. If my Admin login times out, my email is lost.

I'm hoping that with 2.7 there will be a way to save drafts and previously sent emails to registrants so we can go back, recall an email and modify it for the current situation. Please let me know if this will be possible. I consider this to be a very important feature.

With repeating events, will we be able to maintain a registered list for each occurrence of the event and also permit people to register for any available date of an event?

For example, I do a teleclass on the first Sat of each month. Can I provide a way for people to register for more than one of these dates at one time or do they need to register for each one separately?

Thanks! I am really looking forward to 2.7.

Sincerely,
Howard
