Retrieve primary contact role from within VF email template

Hi,

 

I've created a simple VF email template based on the solution found in this forum. However, i found out that the labels are printed many times if there are a few contact roles associated with an opportunity. How do i modify my codes to print the labels of my primary contact role?

 

Appreciate some help. Thanks.

 

My VF codes as below:

 

<messaging:emailTemplate subject="Call Hot Lead" recipientType="User" relatedToType="Opportunity">
<messaging:plainTextEmailBody >

Account: {!Relatedto.Account.Name}
Opportunity Name: {!Relatedto.Name}
<apex:repeat value="{!RelatedTo.OpportunityContactRoles}" var="ContactRole">
Name: <apex:outputText value="{!ContactRole.Contact.Salutation}" rendered="{!AND(ContactRole.isPrimary)}"></apex:outputtext> <apex:outputText value="{!ContactRole.Contact.Name}" rendered="{!AND(ContactRole.isPrimary)}"></apex:outputtext>
Title: <apex:outputText value="{!ContactRole.Contact.Title}" rendered="{!AND(ContactRole.isPrimary)}"></apex:outputtext>
Workplace: <apex:outputText value="{!ContactRole.Contact.Workplace__c}" rendered="{!AND(ContactRole.isPrimary)}"></apex:outputtext>
Contact Status: <apex:outputText value="{!ContactRole.Contact.Contact_Status__c}" rendered="{!AND(ContactRole.isPrimary)}"></apex:outputtext>
Source: <apex:outputText value="{!ContactRole.Contact.Source__c}" rendered="{!AND(ContactRole.isPrimary)}"></apex:outputtext>
Direct Phone: <apex:outputText value="{!ContactRole.Contact.Direct_Phone__c}" rendered="{!AND(ContactRole.isPrimary)}"></apex:outputtext>
Ext: <apex:outputText value="{!ContactRole.Contact.Ext__c}" rendered="{!AND(ContactRole.isPrimary)}"></apex:outputtext>
Mobile: <apex:outputText value="{!ContactRole.Contact.MobilePhone}" rendered="{!AND(ContactRole.isPrimary)}"></apex:outputtext>
Email: <apex:outputText value="{!ContactRole.Contact.Email}" rendered="{!AND(ContactRole.isPrimary)}"></apex:outputtext>
</apex:repeat>

Detail: {!Relatedto.Description}
 
</messaging:plainTextEmailBody>
</messaging:emailTemplate>

You can simply do like this :

<apex:repeat value="{!RelatedTo.OpportunityContactRoles}" var="ContactRole" rendered="{!RelatedTo.OpportunityContactRoles.isPrimary}">
Name: <apex:outputText value="{!ContactRole.Contact.Salutation}"></apex:outputtext> 
<apex:outputText value="{!ContactRole.Contact.Name}" ></apex:outputtext>
Title: <apex:outputText value="{!ContactRole.Contact.Title}" ></apex:outputtext>
Workplace: <apex:outputText value="{!ContactRole.Contact.Workplace__c}"></apex:outputtext>
Contact Status: <apex:outputText value="{!ContactRole.Contact.Contact_Status__c}" ></apex:outputtext>
Source: <apex:outputText value="{!ContactRole.Contact.Source__c}" ></apex:outputtext>
Direct Phone: <apex:outputText value="{!ContactRole.Contact.Direct_Phone__c}" ></apex:outputtext>
Ext: <apex:outputText value="{!ContactRole.Contact.Ext__c}" ></apex:outputtext>
Mobile: <apex:outputText value="{!ContactRole.Contact.MobilePhone}" ></apex:outputtext>
Email: <apex:outputText value="{!ContactRole.Contact.Email}" ></apex:outputtext>
</apex:repeat>

 No need to add rendered attribute inside each outputtext tag.Add it in Repeat only like above. This works fine for me.

the code you modified above works, if there's only 1 contact role. if there's multiple contact roles inside an opportunity, then you will see the labels such as Name, Title etc, printed many times over and over.
