Help with {$invoice_html_contents}

[djskunky]

On the Invoice email for a customer I need to customize the Tax Field.

The customer receive something like this:

 

Sub Total: $90.00 USD

8.20% Tax: $7.38 USD >> I Need to modify that line

Credit: $0.00 USD

Total: $97.38 USD

 

I know , the invoice email template call {$invoice_html_contents} , but I don't know where to find that in order to customize that particular line.

 

I will need your help

Thanks in advance

You have to use EmailPreSend hook.

Kian, thanks for your reply, but that does not work for me, I just want to rename this words on the Email is sent to the customer

 

Rename "8.20% Tax" for "Service fee"

Thant's it

If you can tell me where on what file I can locate that value , I will really appreciate .

Thanks

Something like this:

<?php 

function InvoiceHTMLContentsFix($vars)
{		
if($vars["messagename"]=="Order Confirmation") # Change this with your Email Template
{
	$output = array();
	$output['invoice_html_contents'] = "I'm so damned beautiful!";
	$output['a_new_variable'] = "This email will self destruct in 5 seconds";
	return $output;
}
}

add_hook("EmailPreSend",1,"InvoiceHTMLContentsFix");

?>

Now {$invoice_html_contents} contains "I'm so damned beautiful!" and there's also a new variable available in the defined email template {$a_new_variable}. Just play with it to match your specific needs

in the email template you need to apply the changes to, replace {$invoice_html_contents} with the following

{$invoice_html_contents|replace:'Tax:':'Service Fee:'}

for what its worth, i'd have suggested sentq's solution too - it would be the easiest for a new user to follow.

I can't remember if {$invoice_html_contents} has multi-language parts. If it's not multi-language you can use replace on the contrary you have to use the hook point or tens of multiple replaces.

[brian!]

hmm, I would imagine that "Sub Total", "Credit" etc are being pulled from the language files... but i'm unsure about "Tax" - perhaps it's being pulled from the tax db table - tweaking the db entry would probably show you one way or the other.

 

anyway, a standard replace should change "Tax" - with perhaps an additional regex replace if he needs to replace the taxrate as well.

[sentq]

as far as i remember "Tax" was a fixed word inside invoice PHP files

{$invoice_html_contents|replace:'Tax:':'Service Fee:'}

 

Thank you all for your help emails, You guys rocks ! but I found sentq method much easier ! I finally accomplish what I need.

Once again, thanks for your help!
