How to add NickName to admin send email

Aloha :-)

I would like to add my members user name to the subject line of some email templates at Dolphin :-)

Dolphin 7.3

not sure if the function is already there, but try {NickName} where you want to place it.

I put it into the Subject line   {NickName}    but didn't work :-)

Thank you :-)

<NickName> didn't work neither

Not sure if the variable is added to the Subject line - but did you clear all of your caches after making change. <NickName> looks like the appropriate way to format the variable.

nope didn't work.

Some email templates could use different variable, please specify the exact template you want to add NickName to ? also what is your Dolphin version ?

@AlexT  thank you :-)

I hope it's not too much :-)

<NickName> marker should already work almost in every email template please specify where it doesn't work ?

it didn't work at "Message From The Site Admin" Subject

fIRST - CHECK THE EMAIL TEMPLATE YOU WANT TO CHANGE AND SEE IF THE <nICKnAME> VARIABLE IS IN THE EMAIL TEXT. iF SO, THEN IN THEORY IT SHOULD WORK. iF NOT, THEN FIND AN EMAIL TEMPLATE THAT DOES HAVE <nICKnAME> ALREADY IN IT AND TRY THAT ONE AND SEE IF ANY LUCK.

SORRY FOR THE CAPS - AT WORK AND THATS ALL I USE.

It doesn't work to get the <NickName> into the Subject container

but I'm testing <RealName> now and it seems that this work. not a 100% sure yet I still test it

LoL now they both work.

Can someone please tell me what is the difference between <NickName> and <RealName> since "<RealName>" has nothing to do with Full Name.

NickName is username field - whereas Real Name should be FIrst NAme field and Last Name field - not Full Nae field (I think)

In email templates, NickName and RealName are the same, according to the following code in inc/classes/BxDolEmailTemplates.php file:

                'RealName'    => getNickName($aProfile['ID']),
                'NickName'    => getNickName($aProfile['ID']),
                'Username'    => getUsername($aProfile['ID']),

Thanks :-)

Now my emails look nice :-)
