Hi Guys,

I have a custom question in a question group of “Company Name” I need have added to the Invoice. I can see the relevant shortcodes for the Primary Registrant but I need the Company Name I’m capturing to be present here:

[PRIMARY_REGISTRANT_FNAME] [PRIMARY_REGISTRANT_LNAME]
[PRIMARY_REGISTRANT_ADDRESS]
[PRIMARY_REGISTRANT_ADDRESS2]
[PRIMARY_REGISTRANT_CITY], [PRIMARY_REGISTRANT_ADDRESS_STATE]
[PRIMARY_REGISTRANT_COUNTRY]

Many thanks in advance,

Mike

Hi Mike,

You can use this shortcode:

[PRIMARY_REGISTRANT_ANSWER_*]

…and then drop in the exact text for your custom question. So according to what you shared, this should work:

[PRIMARY_REGISTRANT_ANSWER_*Company Name]

Note that by exact text, that includes spacing.

Thanks


Lorenzo

Hi Lorenzo,

Many thanks for that – it seems to have worked which is great but I now can’t seem to go back in and edit the newly tweaked Invoice. Clicking the Edit link from the list of messages just leads to a blank page. Other unedited messages are fine.

Any ideas?

Best,

Mike

Hi Mike,

Is it completely blank as an all white screen?

If so there may be an error occurring. Could you temporarily turn on WordPress debugging by adding the macro in the following link to your wp-config.php file?

https://gist.github.com/lorenzocaum/848801a1173be464fbe7#file-gistfile1-php

The wp-config.php file can be found in the WordPress root which is where the wp-admin, wp-content, and other files and folders for WordPress resides.

Then please try to trigger the error and you should see something on the screen. Could you copy and paste that here into a reply?

If you do not see an error on your screen, then please browse to this location using your SFTP or FTP client (e.g. FileZilla, Cyberduck):

/wp-content/debug.log

You should see an error recorded within the file. Please copy and paste that here in a reply.

Then go ahead and deactivate WordPress debugging by removing the macro that was recently added or setting it to false and saving changes:

Hi Lorenzo,

A blank page is loaded http://take.ms/BD8ji

I’ll add the debug for you.

Hi Mike,
So is that shown on the page that was previously blank or from within the debug.log file?

‘Headers already sent’ warnings are likely being caused Because WP_Debug is enabled but would not normally cause any problems (once WP_debug is deactivated they are no longer thrown and the sessions work fine)

Was there more above this text:

WP_Widget_Recent_Comments in /wp-content/themes/nirvana/includes/theme-comments.php on line 75

That seems like half the message.

If you enable WP_Debug and navigate to the Message page that is shown blank, what do you see?

Hi Lorenzo,

I’ve just re-run and extracted the messages from the log (below). I can see there is a fatal Out of memory error “EEH_Template.helper.php on line 349”.

The error messages that you’re seeing indicate that your server is running low on memory. You can bump up the amount of memory available to your WordPress installation by following this guide:

Thanks, Josh. I know my hosting account is relatively old. Do you have any recommendations on the amount of memory needed? It feels borderline as this functionality does some time work.

Best Regards,

Mike

Hi Mike,

Your maxing out at ~40MB currently which is relatively low, I would recommend updating to at least 96MB.

You can do that by using:

define( 'WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '96M' );

Within your wp-config.php file.

You can find more details here:

Hi Tony,

Memory upgraded and I’m back in action! Thanks for your help.

I notice that the Zip/Postal Code is missing from the address on the Invoice and I can find the code for this to add to the form? Any ideas? (And is there any documentation detailing all of this as I can’t find it πŸ™‚ )

Thanks in advance,

Mike

Actually, I’ve just spotted that the line drop-down! PRIMARY_REGISTRANT_ZIP_PC seems to have done the trick.

Thanks for your help,

Mike

Great, I’m glad your up and running again πŸ™‚

All of the messages show the shortcodes that can be used in each individual section within those dropdowns.

Just let us know if you have any further questions.
