Hi Max,

I’ve already posted this question in the Zoo Visitor forum on Devot-ee but wanted to see if you could give me any insight.

I’m having an issue grabbing visitor data for a welcome letter I’m sending out to just registered users. I’m using MX Notify Control for the message. The welcome message (based on a template) goes out fine except I need one modification. I’m currently using the tag {mbr_screen_name} to address the user (this is a tag available in MX NC). This puts the email address after “Dear “. However, I’d like to use the member’s first name.

I’ve tried this straight in the welcome message template:

{exp:zoo_visitor:details username="{mbr_screen_name}"}
      {visitor:member_firstname}
{/exp:zoo_visitor:details} 

and

{exp:zoo_visitor:details member_id="{member_id}"}
      {visitor:member_firstname}
{/exp:zoo_visitor:details} 

since member_id is also available as a tag in MXNC. If I hand code the number (i.e. member_id=“55” then it outputs the first name. Seems like a parsing issue. Even tried the using an embedded template approach:

welcome letter code:


Dear {embed="site/grabname" memid="{member_id}"}

Embedded template code:

test value: {embed:memid}<br />
--------<br />
{exp:zoo_visitor:details member_id="{embed:memid}"}
{visitor:member_firstname} {visitor:member_lastname}
{/exp:zoo_visitor:details} 

I get the correct value output next to “test value” but nothing returned from zoo_visitor:details.

Any ideas as to why this might be happening?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
Kevin

this is weird, because regular parsing order is not working here - first what NC do its put his tags inside. I will test it tomorrow.

Hi Max,

Did you have a chance to test this? The Zoo guys said they would contact you about the issue and see if a resolution could be found. Just checking to see if anything could be done to make it work.

Thanks,

Kevin

Hello, yes
I will release it today. Sorry for delay - have unplanned vacation from 31.08 till 15.09 and family asks for all my attention.
