Showing additional custom fields in email

[PJMFD]

I have purchased the “Additional Custom Fields” add on. It works well, collecting additional information from the customer. But is there a way to add the “additional custom fields” information into an email sent to the customer?

Hi.

You need to place {custom_field} email merge tag into Buyer Email Body (Stripe Payments -> Settings -> Email Settings).

There are some other email merge tags available here https://s-plugins.com/email-merge-tags-email-shortcodes-email-customization/ or when you click “Click here to toggle tags hint” on Email Settings page.

The {custom_field} email merge tag uses the information from the original plugin custom field doesn’t it? If we have purchased the additional custom field plugin and I have included fields such as invoice number and customer name, in the new fields, is there a way i can merge each of those individually into an email?

Hi cuwood.

{custom_field} email merge tag is used for both built-in custom field and Additional Custom Fields addon. When you install and enable ACF addon, built-in custom field gets disabled.

There is no way to insert custom fields individually yet, but this sounds like a good thing to implement. I have created a ticket with this feature request in our support system.

Individual custom fields email merge tags have been implemented in test mode.

You would be able to use them in emails using {custom_field_N} email merge tag, where N is custom field’s ID (you can see field IDs on Stripe Payments -> Settings, Additional Custom Fields tab).

If you want to help test these, hit me up here https://s-plugins.com/contact-us/ . Just put “ACF testing” as a subject, I would understand what this code phrase means 😉

This is available for public testing now.

Get latest testing core plugin testing version from here https://s-plugins.com/testing-version/

Update ACF addon to the latest version (1.0.3 at the moment) via WP Dashboard -> Updates.

Here’s documentation how you can use new email merge tags: https://s-plugins.com/stripe-payments-additional-custom-fields-addon/#individual_custom_field
