[Zope-CMF] How do I access email property?

[Boddy Stephen]

Thanks Seb

It took a bit of adjustment, but it got me there.

The member.email needed to be in quotes to work properly.

I also added a <dtml-if member> clause so that content generated by non
members doesn't bug out.

Thanks again, particularly for the speed of response.

All member attributes are exposed as simple properties through a
wrapped Member object, which can be grabbed from the membership_tool.

You can get the Creator of a document through its DublinCore
interface, and you can get the Member object with getMemberById (a
method provided by CMFCore/MembershipTool.py), so an answer is:

   <dtml-let
member="portal_membership.getMemberById(_.getitem('Creator',1))">
      <dtml-var member.email>
   </dtml-let>

There may be a nicer way, though.
