Feed by mail with salutation + forum search

[newsfish]

Hi Stefano,

how can I search the forum? Is there anywhere a search field?

Do you plan to include a salutation in the Feed by mail module? It would be really nice to use the name and gender of a subscriber also in Feed by mail.

Thanks!

Hi, the gender is actually not usable to change the salutation, but tags like {name} and {surname} can be used.

Without gender the surname tag is useless. Why is gender not available? Will it be in the future?

[Stefano]

You can try to use the {sex} tag, it should work, an change the labels on subscription panel.

But why the surname is not usable? Because you want to use “Good morning Mr. {surname}”?

Stefano.

[newsfish]

Yes, because “Good morning Lissa” would not sound that good 😉

Surely it would be possible to use “Good morning Stefano Lissa”, but I don’t have all first names, so that doesn’t work.

So is there any solution to handle this? Thanks!

[Stefano]

Uhm, you can try with the {sex} tag relabelling the sex field values, but I’m not sure it will work… and using Mr/Mrs?

Stefano.

{sex} is not beeing replaced when sending Feed by mail. Or how do you mean to use the field?

[Stefano]

My fault, it was used in another place. I’m coding the title field for salutation, just wait next version.

Stefano.

[newsfish]

That would be really great! Thank you!

[newsfish]

Do you know when it will be included in the next version?

[Stefano]

Just released.

Stefano.

[newsfish]

Great! Thank you, it works!
