we use 1 set of email templates for multiple stores. Logo and store name come from variables per store.

Now I would to add a short text block with a link (diff per store view), something like:

Follow us on facebook: LINK_TO_FB

Now how would I set a variable LINK_TO_FB that grabs the value set per store?

Thanks!

You first need to define your variable as a system config one. If you are unsure how to do this, follow http://inchoo.net/ecommerce/magento/create-configuration-for-your-magento-extension/.

Next, override Mage_Core_Model_Source_Email_Variables and add the newly defined path to the constructor. This will make your variable visible in the "Insert Variable" pop-up from the email template edit screen. Insert the variable in the template and also make sure you define different Facebook links per storeview. They will appear properly in the emails.

  • THx Paul. We did that. Now we are running into a new problem - because these config path variables are being found in the email and NL templates, but not in the custom variables ..... See here: magento.stackexchange.com/questions/6552/… Commented Aug 8, 2013 at 14:12
