I have a VisualForce template for an email, and this also has a PDF attachment similar to the email itself. When I run the Send Test and Verify Merge Fields it creates it fine, populates the fields and creates the attachment.
I've created a URL hack button to pass the Order, email address and other related info, and when I click this button on the Order it generates the email no problem, but not the attachment.
If I then select the same template from the Select Template option, it regenerates the email and then does create the attachment.
Why doesn't it create it from the button?? Help! It used to work before I defaulted the recipient email address, but now even if I remove that from the button hack it still doesn't work.
/_ui/core/email/author/EmailAuthor?rtype=003
&p3_lkid={!Order.Id}
&retURL=%2F{!Order.Id}
&p5={!$User.Email}
&p2_lkid={!Order.CustomerAuthorizedById}
&template_id=00XO0000000Ek5M
And my VF template:
