Order_id instead of order_name on email confirmation

[[email protected]]

Hi,

 

I'm trying all kinds of methods to change the order_name to the order_id on my email confirmations without any luck!

 

I'm using PS 1.6.0.9

 

If anyone can help me with this, would be greatly appreciated!

 

Thanks in advance.

You have to override the PaymentModule class and add id_order to the template variables.
See this post for the reference: https://www.prestashop.com/forums/topic/372654-how-to-add-id-order-on-emailorder-conf/

Thanks Polosat, unfortunately none of these solutions work for me. If i change the class or the override/class files, I still can't use order_id in my mails.

Did you clear the cache after overriding?
What payment module do you use? Maybe it sends emails via its own function.

I cleated the cache (did nothing).

 

We are using a custom payment module made by our payment solution provider but i don't find any reference to sending mails from this module.

Well... did you try to override the Mail class? That's not the best solution but it can be used too.
If even that override doesn't work, then make sure you're editing correct mail template and your overrides are working at all

Hi Polosat,

 

It works now, i was testing with a custom made order confirmation to our warerhouse hence it wasn't working ... *derp* :-)

 

Thanks for your help !
