Add Variable To Email Tamplate

[123Kirill312]

Hi,

 

I spend a lot of hours trying to solve the problem. Hope for your help...

 

I need to add a new variable to email template contact_form.

 

This variable will generate random number or random code (it doesnt matter). I found "Contact controller" and here I add new variable as a test:

$var_list['{test}'] = $product->name[Context::getContext()->language->id];

It is a copy of "product" variable.

 

The question:

 

How to edit it in order to have a random number.

 

Any ideas...

 

PS It is necessary to add this variable to make a ticket system. User receives Random number like a "ticket" that his letter was received and he knows the number of his inquery.

 

PPS I have a few ideas but I am newbie. For example this is Smarty code for random number:

{1|rand:20}

 

But $var_list uses "$", so it is necessary to add something like <{assign var='random' value=1|rand:20}> and than put $random to $var_list. But how and where...

 

Best regards,

Kirill

Hi!

 

Will try to ask in another form. I need to send automatic mail to customer when he send inquery from contact form. And I need to add to this template any number or code, so he could know the number of his question/inquery.
