Adding strings to Address Format

[kcpau]

In lines 234-238 in AddressFormat.php, for the function _setOriginalDisplayFormat, there are these comments:

 

    /*

    ** Set the layout key with the liable value

    ** example : (firstname) => 'Presta' will result (Presta)

    **         : (firstname-lastname) => 'Presta' and 'Shop' result '(Presta-Shop)'

    */

 

This is exactly what I need, to put brackets around the firstname.  But I have no idea what is liable value and how to get this to work.  Can someone help?

 

Thank you.

Did you try modifying this under each country?

 

Hope that helps!

I modified this, but when I put brackets around firstname I got an error that the index (firstname) is not found.  So that does not seem to work.

So no idea, I'm sorry

I managed to get what I want by hacking into AddressFormat.php.  But there must be a better way.

Can you please explain what you did with AddressFormat?

 

Thanks!

I added the following lines 

 

if ($mainFormattedKey=='firstname') {

   $formattedValueList[$mainFormattedKey] = '(' . $formattedValueList[$mainFormattedKey] . ')';

}  

 

after

 

$formattedValueList[$mainFormattedKey] = $start.$formattedValue.$end;

 

in function _setOriginalDisplayFormat in the class AddressFormatCore
