How to add a name in the admin e-mail notification

-- HikaShop version -- : 3.1.1
-- Joomla version -- : 3.7.2
-- PHP version -- : 7

Hi Hikashop,

When a shop owner gets an email with the notification that there is a new order, there is a incorrect preamble.
We miss the name after the word Hello.

Can you tell me what I'm doing wrong? And how I can fix this issue.

I know I can change the Language file, but I saw that it is dynamically filled so there must be something wrong in my configuration I think.

Kind regards,
Lumiga

Hi,

That's normal. In the HikaShop configuration, there is a setting to enter the "order administrator notification email address". So the system knows the email address where to send that email. But there is no setting to enter the name. So the name is left blank there.

We didn't want to add too many almost useless options so we left it like that.
If you want to change that, you would have to change the email preload to change the CUSTOMER to add the name you want in hard coding. But I don't see the point of changing that since that's for yourself anyway.

Thanks Nicolas,

Good to know that I don't miss a thing.
It's just perfectionism why I would like this

Kind regards,
Lumiga

Hi Nicolas,

Can you please help me with the code to get the site owners name into the email preload as you suggested.
I don't know how to do this.

Thanks!

Hi,

You can change that line:
'HI_CUSTOMER' => JText::sprintf('HI_CUSTOMER', @$mail->to_name),
to for example:
'HI_CUSTOMER' => JText::sprintf('HI_CUSTOMER', 'Sailfin73'),

Thanks Nicolas!
