An rich text element containing variables

christian_bargmann · 2025-03-15T02:51:14.366Z

Hi @johnny
Thank you for a quick response

How can i accomplish that… right now when they create the template it get saved as a text field in the database with the variables inserted…

Then when i go to current rows order f.ex.
I get navigated to current page order where i can send the order confirmation and will get presented by the created template… but then i want the variables in the template to get replaced with data from current page order… how do i do that excatly ?

If you wanted let’s say {{Order ID}} to be a merge field, then you would replace {{Order ID}} in the template with whatever reference to the order ID.

So in your case, it sounds like Current Page Order ID

hi again @johnny
thank you for yout help yesterday it really solved a long time irritation that i couldnt solve… so thank you

do you how “find and replace” works out with list of things

f.ex. i have a order list of services or products that should be displayed in the orderconfirmation so the reciever know what they have bought…

as you see in the part saying “ordren omfatter følgende:”
meaning order contains as follow:

when there are more than one entry in that list it just shows as entry1, entry2, entry3 instead of

entry1
entry2
entry3

is there anyway i can change that with using “find and replace” operator

Use format as text on the list of data

christian_bargmann · 2025-03-15T19:37:39.833Z

thanks @johnny
and what do i put in the delimiter?

johnny · 2025-03-15T19:39:20.238Z

Looks like you want line breaks, so hit enter on your keyboard/new line.

i dont know if this i wrong to do… but in the variable i have i want it to show 2 type of fields… name and subtotal

so in the “find and replace” i use the variable “quote_list” and want it to be replaced with an expresion looking like this
"
current page order's quote's quotelist's name:formatted as text current page order's quote's quotelist's subtotal:formatted as text
"

but then i get the result you see above where subtotal doesnt allign with the name element…
do you know how i can sort that out?

johnny · 2025-03-15T19:59:59.798Z

Do

Current Page Order’s Quote:formatted as text

Then do This Order’s name - This Order’s subtotal

i think i may have a wierd setup here

johnny · 2025-03-15T21:04:25.473Z

No in your replace by it should be:

Current Page Orders Quotes:Formatted as text

Then in the formatted text

This Name - This Subtotal

johnny · 2025-03-15T22:36:03.835Z

No. In the format as text content to show per item

This Order’s Quote Name - This Order’s Subtotal

christian_bargmann · 2025-03-15T22:47:44.967Z

so like this… right?

still displayed like this

johnny · 2025-03-15T23:00:30.014Z

No…

I’ll create an example app for you when i’m back on my computer.

But the data source of the find and replace should be the QUOTE LIST. Then that should be formatted as text where every items content is The quotes name - The quotes subtotal.
