{order_name} returns different values on different email templates

[Tomtids]

Morning,

 

I'm tweaking my clients shop email templates, but have noticed an inconstancy in the {order_name} tag.

 

In the email template: order_conf.html - {order_name} returns "KCUIKIGZP" where as

In the admin email template: new_order.html - {order_name} returns the numberical order ID eg: "000004".

 

I'd like to include both of these values on all emails - is there a way I can control which one I get?

 

Many thanks

 

Tom

Anybody please?

 

 

If someone could point me at a reference for all the {} tags I could use it would be a start.

 

Many thanks

I have the same problem with ps 1.5.1, any solution ?

Not yet I'm afraid JoysticK - I'm still looking. Would appreciate an update if you figure it out!

Hi guys,

those two mails are prepared in different way: order_conf by PaymentModule.php system class and new_order by separate mailalerts module. If you want to use order ID in order_conf template need to find {order_name} tag in paymentmodule.php class and replace

{order_name}' => $order->getUniqReference() with this

{order_name}' => sprintf('#%06d', (int)$order->id)

Thanks Sebkos - I'll certainly take a look at those files.

 

What is the best convention about changing 'core' files - will it make updating Prestashop versions more difficult? Is there a better way to override functions on specific modules?
