How to create a unique code in the email body

[Ancade]

I want to use the customer ID in the email body. Every client has already a customer ID set in estore, and this is a unique code and can be easily used as invoice number.

How can I change the php so I can add the customer ID in my email body or use it as a email tag?

There is already one field that you can use for invoice number. It is called the transaction ID. A transaction ID is used to uniquely identify a transaction. This is issued by the payment gateway in most cases so it ties the sale together nicely. Use the following email tag to display the transaction ID of the sale:

{transaction_id}

I thought it was the paypal transaction_id output that the shortcode uses, ifso problem is that it is unique but an invoice number for my accounting should be number+1, and the transaction_id doesn’t do that I believe. So that’s why I wanted to use the customer ID, because that number with every purchase is number+1, hope you can help me out

I see what you mean. I will add a new email tag for a counter. It will start counting from 1 and then increment it by 1 after each sale.

Sounds cool thanks, one more question, I had to do custom changes to estore because of using WPML, and was wondering instead of doing a update, would it also be possible if you just send me the code for the counter?
