Reply To: %%item_name%% not populated

[Carole Asselin]

I’ll send it by email to you.

As i was testing a few things, i tried to see if the variable was actually retrieved. I am not 100% sure i did it right, but i tried this:

    {
        $a = $vars["first_name"];
        $b = $vars["item_name"];
        return "Thank you ". $a . $vars["first_name"] . "\n\nYou have successfully complete your purchase" . $b . $vars["item_name"] . "\n\nIf you have not already done so, the next step is to Register a Username for the Campus.\n\nPlease complete your registration here:" . wp_login_url () . "\n\nIf you have any trouble, please feel free to contact us.";   
    }

I tried more test purchases after, but notice that the $a and the $b variables NEVER appeared in the thank you email.
In the mean time, in order to avoid sending odd looking emails to customers, i reworded the text so that the missing first_name and item_name won’t be noticeable.

Would that help?
