Custom fields in Newsletter made simple

Post by reinhardmohr »

Hi, could anybody help me?
Thank you!
For one of my customers I have installed Newsletter made simple and they have been using it for years. Thanks for making the module!
Now they want to use custom fields so I have made one called "Anrede". But I could not find a way to get the content of this custom field to show up in the message.
In the help section of NMS I can find some words about custom fields under:

Code: Select all

Message variables:

These are covered elsewhere, but added here for completeness. If you add these to your message, they will be replaced at sending time with the appropriate true values.
…
{$fields} — An array of the users custom fields. (is not set if no fields exist for the user)
But I cannot find where "elsewhere" these variables are covered.
All I could find was a smarty loop with $fields in one of the templates. But I could not get it to work.
Searching the forum and the internet didn't help – could some please help me here? Thank you!
I know the cms core version that is installed is old and so is NMS – but very often customers are not easily convinced to upgrade:

CMS made simple 1.11.10
NMS 2.9.5

Thanks for helping or giving me a clue into the right direction!
