Payment description merge tags

[rvdsteege]

From customer:

Where can I find a list of available merge tags for WooCommerce, to use in the payment/transaction description?

[…] For the custom payment description I'm now looking for the merge tags for 'single product name' and 'customer name', to make each transaction/payment from WooCommerce more recognizable, both in the Mollie dashboard and in the bank account.

[…] Are there any ready-made merge tags available for this? Or can you help me with a code-snippet to add these in the functions.php of the active theme, to make them available for use in these settings?

We have a few tags available (and mentioned) for use in the WooCommerce payment method description setting: {order_number}, {order_date}, {blogname}.

Specifically for Mollie, there's also a filter pronamic_pay_mollie_payment_description:

• https://github.com/pronamic/wp-pronamic-pay-mollie/blob/v4.7.6/docs/hooks.md#pronamic_pay_mollie_payment_description

Custom tag replacements can also be added by hooking into the pronamic_pay_pre_create_payment action:

• https://github.com/pronamic/wp-pay-core/blob/v4.9.2/docs/hooks.md#pronamic_pay_pre_create_payment

I've created a Gist for customer and item names tags, using this action:

However, we could also add some kind of merge tag controller which allows for payment data being used through tags in the payment description in all supported plugin integrations. For example:

• {site_title}
• {user:name}
• {customer:name}
• {customer:first_name}
• {items} payment lines names
• …

In pronamic/wp-pronamic-pay-adyen#22 a customer also needed the support of merge tags {gf_form_id} and {gf_entry_id}. If we introduce the ability to register merge tags we could include it in https://github.com/pronamic/wp-pronamic-pay-gravityforms.

Ziekenhuis Nij Smellinghe heeft ook de wens om een andere merge tag te gebruiken (Product titel). Het gaat in dit geval om Mollie i.c.m. WooCommerce.

Ondersteuning voor merge tag {payment_lines_name} is toegevoegd via pronamic/wp-pay-core#149. Zojuist ook nog even getest en dit werkt goed:

De nieuwe merge tag functionaliteit geeft ruimte voor meer merge tags, maar voor nu hebben we daar niet hele concrete wensen in.
