Autoresponder Syntax
You can use special syntax to use preset variables in
autoresponder templates. Surround each variable with
{{double_braces}}. Use the following variables:
{{name}}- Name the user puts in, or a generated name based on their email{{email}}- Email address of the user{{title}}- Title of the discussion{{url}}- Url of the discussion created by the user's support request{{suggested_faqs}}- Collection of suggested faqs
Additionally, autoresponders are parsed with Liquid, and follow the syntax described here in the liquid wiki.
Example
Here's an example template:
Hello {{name}}!
This is an automated response from MyCompany. Thank you very much for your inquiry.
We try and respond to our support requests within 24 hours.
{% if suggested_faqs != empty %}
Based on your support request, we think you should check out the following articles in our FAQ:
{% for faq in suggested_faqs %}
- "{{ faq.title }}" at {{ faq.url }}
{% endfor %}
{% endif %}
We'll send an email to you (at {{email}}) when we update your support request.
Alternatively, you can keep track of this conversation at {{url}}
Thanks again!
