how to send in the email confirmation message the value of the order date, any ideas

Hi Nick,

Have you seen the extension for the project? The Helpers class sends out an e-mail with the order details. If you have already seen it, can you further explain what you need help with?

If you haven't seen it, take a look. It may do exactly what you want I think....

It's probably safe to assume you're sending out the order on the date you are sending the message, right? In that case, you could simply use DateTime.Now as a value for the replacement inside the mail sending method.

Otherwise, retrieve the value in FinalizeOrder and forward it to the DB method and the e-mail sending method.

Cheers,

Imar
