[rt-users] Newbie question regarding Custom Fields in Templates

[Troy.Cobb at cox.com]

This a copy and paste from what works for me in my templates:
 
{$Ticket->FirstCustomFieldValue('Application')}

No, that didn't work either.  In fact, it fails to generate a message at
all when I put that in the template so obviously that object isn't
defined inside a template.  At least with $Ticket a message generates, I
just can't get to the data I need.  I'm doing something wrong in my
reference, I just don't know what it is.

Try $TicketObj->FirstCustomFieldValue() instead.  Its what I've had
success with in my scrips.

I spent the day in the RT Essentials book and on the Wiki trying to
figure out how to create a custom Template that will autoreply.  These
autoreplies are in response to a request for information in a sales
queue.  I've got everything working except that I can't seem to get to a
custom value I need into the Template.

Basically we have a webform that emails the data to RT.  I was able to
scrape the email and get the values into the custom fields (using
ExtractCustomFieldValues) - one of those values is the email address
they want to be contacted at.  When I try to reference that within a
Template like this:

To: {$Ticket->FirstCustomFieldValue('Email');}

It returns undef.  I know the value is there in the ticket - I can see
it on the screen.  The field is called Email.  So what am I doing wrong?
I've researched what I could and fought with it all day - I need some
help please!

Thanks!
