I know EE does not support instalment payments but I am trying to see if I can set this up manually. My potential solution is to create some admin only (or hidden) form fields (Instalment_one, Instalment_two, etc) and then to add those amounts manually to the answers manually. Then add those custom form fields to a custom Payment Reminder template. I am able to add the quuestion list ([QUESTION_LIST]) OK but I am unable to successfuly add just the specific answers using either [ANSWER_*Instalment_one] OR [PRIMARY_REGISTRANT_ANSWER_*Instalment_one] etc.The code is not rejected but it does not add the answer data to the email on send.
Am I missing something? Is it possible to do want I am trying to do?
The [QUESTION_LIST] section looks over ALL questions assigned to a registration and parses that section for EACH individual question, so if you are adding the above to that section its not going to work how I think you are expecting.
[PRIMARY_REGISTRANT_ANSWER_*Instalment_one] in the EVENT_LIST or MAIN_CONTENT sections could work… however, the way those shortcodes work is you pass the ‘Question text’ value to them and it must match exactly.
From the look of yours, I’m guessing you are passing the admin text field.
If your question text field is ‘Instalment one’ then the shortcode would be:
[PRIMARY_REGISTRANT_ANSWER_*Instalment one]
If that doesn’t work, can you add a screenshot of editing your question so I can take a look?
