Here is some info from Able's wiki

Yes it is definitely possible. You can loop through all UserSettings and identify the one you want to render.

Just do it this way:

Code: Select all

#foreach($setting in $order.User.UserSettings)
#if ($setting.FieldName=="Test")
$setting.FieldValue
#end
#end

It looks a bit clunky, but nVelocity has never been known for it's intuitive code formatting and syntax

You can do it like

Code: Select all

$user.Settings.GetValueByKey("FieldName")
