Add recipients user name to WP Better Emails template

    I’ve used WP Better Emails to create a template for all my emails. I have the content (%content%) on the left and a sidebar on the right with some static links. But I’d like to have a box at the top of the sidebar that contains the recipient’s username (I send emails only to members of my site). The purpose is to remind them so that it’s easier for them to log into my site.

    I saw in the FAQ here that it’s possible to add custom tags. But I don’t understand what I would need to do to add a %username% tag.

    The custom tags allows you to add some tags but it doesn’t have any variable available that lets you customize the content (email, user id, etc.).

    You could eventually add the mailer object to the wpbe_tags filter. It could let you parse the to field of the message and eventually get the username from the email address.

    The problem is that not every emails are addressed to blog users and your tag will be empty (i.e. Hi %username%).
