    Hello, I'm trying to replace a few tokens in the header and footer... these are noted in the docx template file with preceeding and concluding '$'.... i.e. $BRIEFTITLE$, and so on.

    Here is the code:

    [code]
    $docx = new CreateDocx();

    $settings = array(
    'header' => true
    );

    $docx->addTemplate('templates/bl_bluebrieftemplate.docx');
    $docx->setTemplateSymbol('$');
    $docx->addTemplateVariable('BRIEFTITLE', 'Testing Brief ' . date("H:i:s"),$settings);
    $docx->addTemplateVariable('BRIEFTEMPLATE', 'dock trial of template use '. date("H:i:s"),$settings);
    $docx->addTemplateVariable('BRIEFCONTENT', 'Body Content '. date("H:i:s"),$settings);
    $docx->addTemplateVariable('BRIEFFOOTER', 'Footer Content ' . date("H:i:s"),$settings);
    $docx->addTemplateVariable('BRIEFACCOUNT', 'Account Name '. date("H:i:s"),$settings);
    $docx->addTemplateImage('BRIEFLOGO', 'path/to/file.gif',$settings);
    $docx->createDocx('outputs/bluebrief_'.date("H_i_s"));
    [/code]

    the file renderes, and only briefcontent variable is replaced. The others are not... any ideas?

    Thanks for the update...

    When is the update set for release? Is there any suggested work around in the short term? (or perhaps a beta/alpha release we could work with)

    thanks.
