E-mail Replacing Field_Name Not {Field_Name}

I noticed that the custom replacement fields (the ones surrounded curly braces {}) in the e-mail messages I was receiving were including the curly braces along with the replacement value. Not only that, but everywhere the replacement field word was used (without the curly braces) it was being replaced as well with the replacement value.

I found another thread where there was made mention of the various custom e-mail replacement fields, as follows:

- Campaign title : {campaign}
- First name : {first_name}
- Last name : {last_name}
- Organization : {organization}
- Address : {address}
- city : {city}
- state : {state}
- zip : {zip}
- country : {country}
- phone : {phone}
- email : {email}
- comment : {comment}
- amount : {amount}


As a test site placed the above to be received as my thank you message. After submitting the donation information I received the following from the e-mail:

- Campaign title : {Donation Drive}

- First name : {Michael}

- Last name : {Duderanch}

- Organization : {}

- Address : {123 Main St.}

- Chico : {Chico}

- CA : {CA}

- 96100 : {96100}

- United States : {United States}

- 916-555-5555 : {916-555-5555}

- mikeis2cool@comcast.net : {mikeis2cool@comcast.net}

- test : {test}

- 5.00 : {5.00}


Thank you for any assistance you can provide,

Mike

Hi again,

I have found the solution by looking at the code. On about line 746 of models/jdonation.php, the following line is used to replace the custom replacement values:

$body = str_replace("{$key}", $value, $body) ;

The problem is with the curly braces surrounding the $key variable: PHP sees the curly braces as part of the string itself with variables. To fix the problem, on mine I did the following:

$body = str_replace("{{$key}}", $value, $body) ;

I believe this problem will occur for people who have newer versions of PHP on their server. I am a little surprised it hasn't come up already, although perhaps it has and I didn't see the post.

I hope this helps if this problem comes up for anyone else.

Cheers!

Mike
