This will always be available echo $user->name; // this is the name of the user stored in the Joomla user account. This won't be available if the order is created as a guest checkout // supposing the user provided a billing address during the checkout, you'll have the information of the address in $order->cart->billing_address echo $order->cart->billing_address->address_firstname; // this would provide the first name of the user in the billing address of the order Please [Log in](/login?return=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaGlrYXNob3AuY29tL2ZvcnVtLzQ0LW1hc3MtYWN0aW9ucy85MDg5MzMtYWNjZXNzaW5nLWN1c3RvbWVyLWRldGFpbHMtb25hZnRlcm9yZGVyY3JlYXRlP3RtcGw9bWFya2Rvd24=) or [Create an account](/component/users/registration?Itemid=101) to join the conversation. - **[rodfarrell](/forum/user/5859-rodfarrell "View rodfarrell's Profile")** - [![rodfarrell's Avatar](https://www.hikashop.com/media/kunena/core/svg/person.svg)](/forum/user/5859-rodfarrell "View rodfarrell's Profile") Topic Author - [ Offline](/forum/user/5859-rodfarrell) Less More - Posts: 259 - Thank you received: 22 - - 1 year 11 months ago - 1 year 11 months ago [\#364786](#364786) by [rodfarrell](/forum/user/5859-rodfarrell "View rodfarrell's Profile") Replied by *[rodfarrell](/forum/user/5859-rodfarrell "View rodfarrell's Profile")* on topic *[Accessing customer details onAfterOrderCreate](/forum/44-mass-actions/908933-accessing-customer-details-onafterordercreate#364786 "I'm writing a php script to add a customer's details to a MailerLite list after an order is created.

How do I call the customers email address and name into variables?")* Hi, In your first message, you talked about onAfterOrderCreate. That's an event fired by HikaShop, which plugins of the groups "hikashop", "hikashopshipping", "hikashoppayment" or "system" can subscribe to by defining a method for it as explained here: [ www.hikashop.com/support/documentation/6...mentation.html#intro](https://www.hikashop.com/support/documentation/62-hikashop-developer-documentation.html#intro) Based on your new screenshot, I now understand that you're actually not using the onAfterOrderCreate event. Instead, you've created a massaction with a trigger "after an order is created" and you're using the "run PHP code" action in order to try to achieve a similar result as a plugin. In the PHP code of a "run PHP code" action, you don't have access to any existing variable like $order. You only have access to tags on the element being processed: [ www.hikashop.com/support/documentation/1...action-form.html#php](https://www.hikashop.com/support/documentation/167-massaction-form.html#php) So, you can't use the code of my previous message "as is". You need to adapt it. For example: Code: $orderClass = hikashop_get('class.order'); $order = $orderClass->loadFullOrder({order_id}, true, false); echo $order->customer->user_email; // this is the email stored in HikaShop. This will always be available echo $order->customer->name; // this is the name of the user stored in the Joomla user account. This won't be available if the order is created as a guest checkout // supposing the user provided a billing address during the checkout, you'll have the information of the address in $order->billing_address echo $order->billing_address->address_firstname; // this would provide the first name of the user in the billing address of the order Please [Log in](/login?return=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaGlrYXNob3AuY29tL2ZvcnVtLzQ0LW1hc3MtYWN0aW9ucy85MDg5MzMtYWNjZXNzaW5nLWN1c3RvbWVyLWRldGFpbHMtb25hZnRlcm9yZGVyY3JlYXRlP3RtcGw9bWFya2Rvd24=) or [Create an account](/component/users/registration?Itemid=101) to join the conversation. - **[rodfarrell](/forum/user/5859-rodfarrell "View rodfarrell's Profile")** - [![rodfarrell's Avatar](https://www.hikashop.com/media/kunena/core/svg/person.svg)](/forum/user/5859-rodfarrell "View rodfarrell's Profile") Topic Author - [ Offline](/forum/user/5859-rodfarrell) Less More - Posts: 259 - Thank you received: 22 - - 1 year 10 months ago [\#364840](#364840) by [rodfarrell](/forum/user/5859-rodfarrell "View rodfarrell's Profile") Replied by *[rodfarrell](/forum/user/5859-rodfarrell "View rodfarrell's Profile")* on topic *[Accessing customer details onAfterOrderCreate](/forum/44-mass-actions/908933-accessing-customer-details-onafterordercreate#364840 "I'm writing a php script to add a customer's details to a MailerLite list after an order is created.

Your solution works perfectly and customers purchasing my intro product now get added to the MailerLite sales funnel. Thanks for your help.
