I am using phpmailer, and have customised it for my needs. Inside $templatemessage is the message to the customer with the fields {name} and {fuel}.
These two fields are replaced with the str_replace function.
Before this problem appeared I just had the str_replace replace the {name} and this worked fine, with the name of the person being imported into that place.
The problem arose when I added the extra str_replace function to replace the {fuel} with the $templatemessage value. What happens now is the {fuel} value is imported, but it seems to be doing something to the {name} function as it no longer imports the name and instead displays only {name} in the emails, where as before I added the {fuel} it worked.
How can I get the two to play nicely with each other ?.
