Visualforce E-Mail Template (not) populating with data - Thoughts?

Hi all, 

 

Following up from an earlier thread; we have created a Visualforce e-mail template that we are calling through a trigger. When we preview the e-mail template with data that we enter (via preview), it works.

 

However, when the e-mail is sent via trigger upon the creation of a new entry in the object, the e-mail is sent without information populating the Apex fields.  

 

Does anyone know why this happens, and what steps we can take to remedy / explore for a remedy? (We have the latest release of SF)

 

Thanks!

--Dave

have you used the "setWhatId" method to pass the Id of the record?
