How to modify {payment} in Order Confirmation Email - Prestashop 1.4.x

[Wasseem Khayrattee]

I'm just on my 2nd day with the code base of prestashop and I need to modify {payment} in Order Confirmation Email.

I want to change the name of a specific payment method to something else (a more descriptive name)

 

Prestashop version: 1.4.x

Target: Order Confirmation Email

 

In the B.O, this can be found here:

Tools > Translations > Modify translations > E-mail template > Core e-mails > order_conf.html

 

But I need to be able to manipulate the variable {payment} in there.

Anyone knows where this variable is handled in the code?

Hi,

 

you can change data in {payment} with override method PaymentModule::validateOrder()

Awesome, I found the variable in PaymentModule::validateOrder()

 

// Send an e-mail to customer

'{payment}' => Tools::substr($order->payment, 0, 32)

Hello:

 

To me I get the client name instead of the method of payment, in the mail messages. How I can fix it?

 

Thank you

Did you modify anything in the code?

If no, I think in your B.O you might have set the client name for the placeholder for your payment method's name..?
