Adding User Reference Token for CCK [#786606]

I am using CCK to create a content type of "Issue" that is then assigned to a user to work on using workflow, actions, triggers etc. In CCK I have created a custom field variable called 'field_assigned_to'. When the 'Issue' is assigned to a user, that user will receive an email telling them that it has been assigned to them. I am using a send tokenized email action, the problem is that there is no placeholder token for email associated with the 'field_assigned_to' variable, the available placeholders are, [field_assigned_to-uid], [field_assigned_to-name], [field_assigned_to-link],
[field_assigned_to-path] and [field_assigned_to-url], I need to have the email address associated with field_assigned_to-uid in order to populate the 'To' textbox on the form when creating the tokenized email. Any ideas on how to get it into that textbox?

Node & user reference tokens are provided by CCK.module, not token.module. I'll transfer your issue to the cck issue queue where someone better handled to answer your request can reply.

I had this exact same problem, modified the code of modules/cck/includes/content.token.inc:

lines I added: $tokens['user reference']['mail'] = t("E-mail address of the referenced user.");

      $user = user_load($item['uid']);
      $tokens['mail']  = isset($user->mail) ? $user->mail : '';

So the userreference_token_list() looks like this now:

if (module_exists('userreference')) {
  function userreference_token_list($type = 'all') {
    if ($type == 'field' || $type == 'all') {
      $tokens = array();

      $tokens['user reference']['uid']   = t('Referenced user ID');
      $tokens['user reference']['name']  = t('Referenced user name');
      $tokens['user reference']['link']  = t('Formatted HTML link to referenced user');
      $tokens['user reference']['path']  = t("Relative path alias to the referenced user.");
      $tokens['user reference']['url']  = t("Absolute path alias to the referenced user.");
      $tokens['user reference']['mail']  = t("E-mail address of the referenced user.");

      return $tokens;
    }
  }

  function userreference_token_values($type, $object = NULL) {
    if ($type == 'field') {
      $item = $object[0];

      $tokens['uid']   = $item['uid'];
      $tokens['name']  = isset($item['view']) ? strip_tags($item['view']) : '';
      $tokens['link']  = isset($item['view']) ? $item['view'] : '';
      $tokens['path'] = is_numeric($item['uid']) ? url('user/' . $item['uid']) : '';
      $tokens['url'] = is_numeric($item['uid']) ? url('user/' . $item['uid'], array('absolute' => TRUE)) : '';

      $user = user_load($item['uid']);
      $tokens['mail']  = isset($user->mail) ? $user->mail : '';

      return $tokens;
    }
  }
}
