Hi there

Maybe I am missing something obvious here but...

I have successfully uploaded a document template, and that document is indeed what is served up when the form is submitted.

However, I can't even get a text token to work, let alone an image token!

In my document template, I tried including this:

[submission:values:first_name]

where first_name is the field key of a field on the webform

and when the document is served up, there's no substitution happening.

what am i doing wrong?

goatvirus, I tried your docx file and it worked well.
Could you please tell me what components in webform do you have?
Is the file downloaded correctly?

Kwaailappies, you are using tokens in format for Webform 3.x.
Please change the tokens to be something like:
[submission:values:first_name] or [current-user:name]

One potential error I've noticed that could be causing this issue:

I noticed that, after submitting my first form and having the substitutions work, all subsequent form submittals returned a docx file that had the same substitutions as the first form.

I found that the $filled_file in webform_document_apply_replacements() isn't initially created with FILE_EXISTS_REPLACE, so a series of filled files with incrementing numbers (as per the FILE_EXISTS_RENAME option on file_unmanaged_copy, see docs) was being created. Since the webform_document_submission_page() function relies on the file name being the same, this means only the first generated docx file was being served.

Attached patch to fix this issue.

Hi,

I have the same problem:

Node tokens are being replaced, but not the submission ones...

My name is [submission:values:name] 

My email is [submission:values:email]

Any idea why?
