Email Placeholder Options

Hi, Dave -

The issue is more to do with rendering addresses than anything else. The placeholders look like this:

#order.shipping_first_name# #order.shipping_last_name#
#order.shipping_address_line_1#
#order.shipping_address_line_2#
#order.shipping_city#
#order.shipping_province#
#order.shipping_postal_code#
#order.shipping_country#

The problem is: #order.shipping_address_line_2#.

Only a small number of people will enter data into this field. As a result, the email will often render the address like this:

Joe Bloggs
29 Ponsenby Drive

Royston Vasey
Smithersdale
NN1 1GP
England

It leaves an ugly gap. My client uses some sort of accounting software and needs to copy and paste each address into a template. The gap in the address is causing him a lot of grief!

I just wondered if there was a way of skipping the field if no data is provided.

Hi Perch, 

No, there's no way to skip it.  Probably what I'd do in the code is something like this: 

$placeholders['shipping_address_lines'] = implode("\n", array($placeholders['shipping_address_line_1'], $placeholders['shipping_address_line_2'])); 

And then replace this:

#order.shipping_address_line_1#
#order.shipping_address_line_2#

With this: 

#order.shipping_address_lines#

Let me know if that works for you.
