Merge Fields

The merge fields you use will differ depending on where you want to merge client data. There are basically three places we merge info.

1. autoresponders (emails automatically generated and sent from 1shoppingcart)
2. standard web pages
3. WordPress web page

Most custom merge fields are case sensitive and will depend on how you created the custom field inside 1shoppingcart. To check your custom fields, login to 1shoppingcart, click on “Contacts”, then “Custom Fields”.

Autoresponder Merge Codes

These are provided by 1shoppingcart. Use these inside autoresponders (emails), including embedded within hyperlinks. The standard contact merge fields are generally all lower case but the custom field merge codes are case sensitive and depend on how you created the custom field inside 1shop. You can easily insert these into autoresponders while editing/creating an autoresponder message inside 1shoppingcart. See this for a quick demo http://screencast.com/t/cAJfVeVfpMnz

Standard Contact Merge Fields

%$name$%

%$secondaryphone$% (corresponds to “Homephone” field)
%$address1$%

%$zip$%

The following merge in your information based on what’s in your contact profile. You can delete these and type in your actual information or update the info in the “contact profile” under “My Account”. We use these when setting up your Amazing System to allow us to get things going faster. They are not necessary and can simply be deleted and replaced with whatever info you’d like there. You are only allowed one contact profile.

%$custom:field3$% (time of event)
%$custom:field4$% (location of event)
%$custom:field5$% (number of guests)

%$custom:field11$% (balance due)

Standard Webpage Merge Fields

If you’re using the master.php file to merge onto your non-WordPress webpage, these are the merge codes you’ll want to use on the page. Note that the contact fields begin with a capital letter. The custom fields are case sensitive and depend on how you created them inside 1shoppingcart. Unlike the 1shoppingcart autoresponder merge fields, your custom fields don’t use the word “custom”

Sample Links:

Sample link populated with dummy info (in real life, the autoresponder automatically populates the client’s data into the hyperlink for you):

http://amazingsystem.com/AS/master.php?l=5&Name=David%20Farr&[email protected]&Workphone=763-566-8597&Company=iAndroid&Address1=po%20box%201191&City=Maple%20Grove&State=MN&Zip=55311&field1=holiday%20party&field2=December%2025,%202015&field4=Mall%20of%20America&field8=$500

Here’s a link to the raw HTML file with no merging so you can see the difference: http://www.amazingsystem.com/AS/invoice.html

Link to copy and paste into autoresponder with merge fields (make sure domain is correct and path is valid as to where you uploaded the master.php file):

[sourcecode language=”plain”] /AS/master.php?l=5&Name=%$name$%&Email1=%$email$%&Workphone=%$phone$%&Company=%$company$%&Address1=%$address1$%&City=%$city$%&State=%$state$%&Zip=%$zip$%&field1=%$custom:field1$%&field2=%$custom:field2$%&field4=%$custom:field4$%&field8=%$custom:field8$% [/sourcecode]

WordPress Merge Fields

If you’re using the Amazing System WordPress Plugin (created by the Great Scott Lesovic), these are the merge fields you use on your WordPress pages. For more info including sample swap codes, visit the AS WordPress plugin page.

Contact Fields

Note: All field names begin with a capital letter except the firstname and lastname fields.
[sourcecode language=”plain”]
[as what=”Name”]
[as what=”Email1″]
[as what=”firstname”]
[as what=”lastname”]
[as what=”Company”] (use this for schools, churches, companies, etc.)
[as what=”Workphone”]
[as what=”Homephone”]
[as what=”Address1″]
[as what=”Address2″]
[as what=”City”]
[as what=”State”]
[as what=”Zip”]
[as what=”Country”]
[as what=”Fax”]
[/sourcecode]

Custom Fields

Note: these are case sensitive based on how the custom fields were created inside 1Shoppingcart. If you used
all lower case letters when you created the field, then you should use all lower case letters in the merge code.
[sourcecode language=”plain”]
[as what=”field1″]
[as what=”field2″]
[as what=”field3″]
[as what=”field4″]
[as what=”field5″]
[as what=”field6″]
[as what=”fieldx”]
[/sourcecode]
So let’s say the shortcode of your custom field was “FavColor” (notice the capital F & C), then your AS WP merge field would be [as what=”FavColor”]

Custom Form

Note: this will display the form code from the Amazing System settings box that is below the page editor.
